Two weeks ago, I went to Quebec. I went one day, but what a long day. It started at 5:00! The alarm has been difficult for a weekend as you can imagine, but knowing that I visit Quebec I'm still out of my bed. I took the subway to get to Berri-UQAM and I only arrived 5 minutes before departure of the bus which was scheduled at 6:00 am (got hot), plus it was almost complete. Traveling by bus is not so bad, there are even electrical outlets at each seat, very convenient for long trips. After 3 hours of travel and a few minutes of sleep I arrived in Quebec. The weather was beautiful, the weather was not too high, so it was the perfect time to visit the city. Upon arrival I was surprised by the architecture of the railway station, it changes radically from Montreal.
While I do not know which direction I walked, I saw the pillars of a motorway painted, details are impressive for a work to which few people are paying attention. In fact, Quebec is a city that wants to keep a beautiful appearance, all spaces are covered with grass, saw the number of tourists it attracts, it has every incentive to treat its image.

Then I went to the citadel of Quebec . The visit is not free, but it's worth it. It is still a military base (Royal 22nd Regiment). When I made the visit with the guide in French was the only one, all others were doing the tour in English. In addition, I do not expect too listen, but I was a bit forced. Finally, it was interesting and above all it allowed me to learn more about Quebec City, the various battles, the victories of the battalion since World War have now become famous.

Here are some pictures.
