As Robert Lepage, creator of the celebrated Image Mill, points out, “Its geographic location, urban culture and history make Québec one of the world’s most beautiful and highly photogenic cities.” There’s a new crop of very attractive hotels, some Michelin-worthy restaurants, beautifully preserved historic buildings and after a few days of exploring, you can set off into the incredible wilderness in Québec province.
