Learn French in Québec, Canada
Quebec, situated on the north bank of the Saint Lawrence River, unveils itself on two levels: the Haute-Ville and the Basse-Ville. The Haute-Ville, listed as UNESCO World Heritage, is home to treasures, like the Château Frontenac which dominates the narrow small streets of Old Quebec. It is in this borough that the International Summer Festival takes place. On this occasion, the streets are invaded by artists which organise dozens of musical happenings, to the sound of musics of the world and French song.

The Basse-Ville is the shopping and social centre of this capital of a thousand colours. It is very pleasant to stroll amongst the flowery, wooded and grassy glens of the Plains of Abraham. This park, of inestimable value, witnessed the English and French Empire argue over the hegamony of the country. The Montmorency Falls, 83 metres of a breathtaking natural spectacle, are not to be missed. The suspension bridge above the falls offers a splendid view over the Saint Lawrence River and the Ile d'Orléans. After having admired this splendid nature, there's nothing better than a shopping trip to the Galeries de la Capitale, with its hundreds of shops, 6 cinema screens, an indoor amusement park, an ice-skating rink...could you wish for better? This city, the fruit of a happy mixture between the New World and the Old, offers countless appealing facets, including its small streets, its green parks, its city walls (Quebec is the only city in North America to have kept its fortifications) and its international university.
