Québec - Quartier Petit-Champlain

The delightful Quartier Petit-Champlain at the foot of the steps leading to Quebec's Upper Town is nowadays much favored by artists and crafts people, many of whom have set up business there. Indian leather goods and furs in particular, also examples of Inuit art, are among the many items offered for sale.

In addition to the numerous boutiques of Quartier Petit-Champlain are a variety of bistors and other eating establishments.

Narrow streets combined with the old architecture also make this one of the most scenic areas of Old Quebec.
