Plains of Abraham

Lookout on the Plains of Abraham, Quebec (27375259935) in Quebec City

A vast clifftop park above the river, site of the pivotal 1759 battle and now a beloved free green space where locals run, picnic and sledge. It is Quebec City's Central Park, wrapped in history.

Wander the Martello towers and gardens or catch summer concerts on the grounds; the Battlefields interpretation centre fills in the story.

Local tip: Enter from the Grande Allée side and combine it with the MNBAQ art museum at the park's western edge.
