Well this day started off with a circular walk of Quebec city and a visit to the Plains of Abraham, which is basically the site of many clashes for supremacy between the French and British Empires over Quebec city. The park is the scene of the 1759 Conquest, which changed the fate of North America. Apart from its historical past, the park is to Québec what Central Park and Hyde Park are to New York and London.After completing an historical tour of the plains, i then went to an art exhibition in the Joan of Arc park which is really pretty and has a lovely monument of her.
Heading back to town, i came across a church holding an art exhibition, of course in i went, it was lovely, such great ambiance.
Back walking the streets of the old city and sunset is fast approaching, the city looks just gorgeous - the shops are all light up, there are a
multitude of art galleries, musicians playing on squares and i finished off at the Museum of civilisation which was holding an evening exhibition of colours and art which was interesting. There are loads of people walking around at night so it is quite safe and very pleasant! See more pics here:
