Ottawa
Let your spirits soar in Canada's capital region where over 300 years of nation building have blanketed the landscape with glorious heritage buildings, diverse museums and cultural venues. Meander along the banks of the historic Rideau Canal and watch boats being lifted by hand-operated locks dating back to 1832. Board an elegant Edwardian style vessel for a cruise on the Ottawa River. Go museum hopping through all your special interests and be sure to try a BeaverTail - a unique, sweet pastry treat. Plan to spend your vacation in a capital destination - a place of endless attractions and warm hospitality that's an engaging blend of English and French.
