La Citadelle
This fortification at the juncture of the Old City wall and Grande Allée is still used as an active military base by the Royal 22e Régiment of the Canadian Army, which has long been known for the irony of being exclusively French-speaking despite having ceremonial uniforms that are clearly British in origin. Also serves as the official residence of King Charles III and the Governor-General of Canada when they visit Quebec City.
Terrasse Dufferin
Boardwalk along (east of) the Chateau Frontenac. Offers a grand view of the St. Lawrence River, running from the statue of Champlain/the top of the Funiculare to the bottom steps of the Governors' Walk, with covered gazebos protruding out for even better views of Lower Town along the way.
Two-storey house finished in 1729.
The oldest of the gates to the city, standing at the western end of the street with the same name. It was first built in 1693, then left to ruin, but was restored and strengthened after the War of 1812. It got its current outlook in 1880.
A national historic monument comprising houses from the 18th and 19th century.
With roots in the 17th century, this is one of the oldest streets in Quebec, but there are few buildings left from that time. It's named after the gate of Saint-Louis, which the street connects to Place d'Armes. Albeit touristy, walking along it is still an interesting experience.
