Ottawa

Ottawa has been described as one of the most beautiful capitals in the world. Able to enjoy all the attributes of a major centre for the visual and performing arts, as well as other big city attractions, this city still maintains the accessibility, atmosphere and charm of a smaller city, in addition to access to spectacular park and wilderness areas located within and around the city. Home to many great museums, including the Canadian Museum of Civilization, the Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography and Canadian War Museum, it is in Ottawa where you will also find the National Gallery of Canada, the famous Canadian Tulip Festival, and the always-fun Winterlude festival. The heart of the action is the ByWard Market area, which is full of trendy restaurants and lively bars. Elgin Street is another hotspot, full of great dining options.
