In eastern Canada, along the St. Lawrence River, you'll discover the captivating Quebec City, the capital of the province of Quebec. Quebec City holds the distinction of being one of the oldest European settlements in North America, originally established by French colonists in the early 17th century. This rich history is beautifully preserved in the old city walls and the historic downtown area. Presently, the city is home to approximately 520,000 residents, and while French is the primary language, most inhabitants also understand and speak English.
