Reviews of The Battlefields Park (Tourist Attraction)

Benjamin Duff

Huge park right outside the old city - super close, well maintained with lots of areas with different bits and pieces to see and do, plus it's a big historical site which makes it even more interesting. Art galleries, gardens, the nature walk and more make it an easy place to spend a day.

Very cool historic place to visit when in Quebec City. My son loved playing on the Cannons and the flag pole. He actually stopped moving and listened for a while as I explained a bit of the historical significance of the Plains of Abraham.

Beautiful historical place

Susa Bernard

Quebec City's Central Park. Lovely in every season.

Shawnna DeMatos

The views are amazing, overlooking the lake, it's so quiet. The gardens are beautiful even though we went in the fall and everything should have been dead. It was well lit and groommed. Just a short walk from where we were staying. It was decorated for Halloween and had stories from around the area posted with displays all around the whole park.

Laurie M

Quiet, lovely park along the Plains of Abraham. Great views of the city and St Lawrence River. …

E Lins

The best place to relax in Quebec City. Summer will be a joy all around this park. The comfort feeling of being in a peaceful city rid of the big city problems and bad people will make you add hours of enjoyment and bliss while strolling about these grassy, monumental landscapes. History was here too. It's an added cultural event knowing what happened through your environment as you sink in the atmosphere.

A must-see when visiting Quebec City. The history of this area is well-preserved and interesting to walk around and feel it. This is a working fort with the Garrison still active. If you get a chance, watch the changing of the guards.

Zakariae BENKOUDAD

One of the city's must see. Take the time the read the story behind this place and the events that took place there. It's more enjoyable during the summer when you have read or have a small nap under the sun.

Lawrence Colsell

Unique in North american history - nicely presented park with stunning views of the st Lawrence and the city fortifications.

Nasim Sedaghat

I really like this park. Not sure exactly why but I think it's a combination of the fact that it's very historically important, it had many hills and valleys, it was so quiet and peaceful, and it was full of vegetation... Read the history before you go, the geographical and structural nature of it have contributed to the way battles turned out and history got shaped

MrsWayfarer

Wide green space thats good walking, contemplating, having a picnic with family. There is a nature trail, and we saw a group of people also utilising an area to do tai chi. Nice way to spend a cool summer day.

Beautiful area to visit. Lots of people there to take photos and enjoy the scenery. I took a walk around the neighbourhood, very beautiful old buildings that are very quaint and picturesque. Love the European feel to the area, and the amazing history of the battles that took place over 200 years ago.

Joshua Greve

Wonderful. Quite a bit of construction which affects the view and general ambience. Not complaining but just noting that right now it's more of a 4 than a 5.

Nathan Price

I had a very good experience here despite it's the night, i still seen old tanks and old army vehicles on the park, i considered this park very well maintained and clean, this park has some information panels about the history and this park has some amenities like a museum, a gift shop and more.

Old Quebec City was awesome! Check out all it has to offer.

Matt Champlin

Wonderful walk through history - but has great hiking and walking trails through the woods as well. Nice pavilions and fountains. This is where the Battle of the Plains of Abraham took place and the British took over Quebec from the French in the 1750's. The trails here lead down to the Citadel and old Wall in Old Quebec city. Wonderful green space - and make sure you check out the museum at the end of the park!

Splendide endroit historique sur les plaines d'Habraham immense étendue pour marcher faire du jogging, pic-nique ainsi que de nombreux Concerts l'été. Possibilités de skier ou de faire de la raquette l'hiver, proche des Bars et restaurants délicieux ???? Splendid historic place to go walk, jogging, pic-nic and night concerts also. Skiing by the winter also all around the plains-of-abraham-battlefields-park. Canada's first national historic park. National Battlefields Park is over a hundred years old. Its main sites are the Plains of Abraham (98 hectares) and Des Braves Park (5 hectares).The 1759 Battle of the Plains of Abraham was the defining confrontation between the French and British Empires in North America. Months later, in 1760, the two powers clashed again in the Battle of Sainte-Foy, where Des Braves Park now stands. The urban park welcomes some 4 millions visitors each year!

Igor Pivovar

Beautiful and interesting historical park

Stéphane

Can't believe the French didn't hold better... But good to learn from past.

Matthew Tibble

Had a great day walking though this park. It is big so of you plan on walking to the end or will take 2-3 hours and about 7kms. We used the restrooms at the Rotunda in they middle of the park. There are also restrooms at the top of the governers promenade. We went in early autumn and there wasn't any cafe open so bring water and snacks. The views are amazing from the location! You can start your walk from the promenade in front of chateaux frontenac. Oh, and there is a nice nature trail on the east side of the park to walk along back from the south end to the north.

Chaitravi K

Beautiful pafk. So much to see. Such nice staff and facilities. Well kept. Nice for picnics.

marylynn170

Nice historic place, great view

Jubal Sackett

Huge disappointment. There was little there to do with the battle or the military history.nit was all modern art, crafts, and non military or non historical books.

Cristiana Magni

The best place to walk and to rest on the grass and under the trees. Up the Escalier Cap Blanche, a nice view of the river Saint Lawrence!

Dzenan Ridjanovic

I love this park. You can walk for hours and still all good restaurants are close by.

Stephen McKean

It is hard not to admire the battle field park. The grounds are beautifully manicured and very well laid out it is very clean and easy to get around. Enjoy a vista view of the Saint Lawrence river where the battle was fought many years ago. All of the battle armaments are placed in their strategic locations then maintain and beautiful condition. There are several torrents that are on grounds and like everything else in beautiful condition. If you like flowers then you will not be disappointed as there are beautiful Horticulture displays all around the park. Whether you would like to walk the park or ride bicycle in the park or even drive around in your car in the park you will not be disappointed as there are many roadways that will show you many beautiful examples of this wonderful park.

Hernandez Elisa

Great place to run and nice gardens, great job!

Mark A

Great place to enjoy views of the city and river.

Shelly

It was nice....but not much in English to read...if you don't speak French don't go.....

Dennis Scharf

A beautiful spacious park along the shore of the St. Lawrence River is definitely worth visiting while in Quebec city. The scenery is incredible and for the most part does not allude to the fact that a bloody battle between the French and English happened on this spot 250 years ago. There are 2 Mortello towers in the park to showcase the military past but also a very colorful garden with a statue of Joan of Arc in it's center. A very large park that sits beside the Citadel and is very accessible to enjoy.

Pierre-Emmanuel LeMay

Quebec City's very own "Central Park": wide, free and fun !

Luis Bermudez

Amazing place to visit

Ken Pike

Beautiful park, well maintained. My daughter climbed a few trees and didn't break any bones. Overall a damn fine day at the park.

Michael Doyle

Just a wonderful park to visit. Do not.miss it as it is relaxing

daniel zhang

It's huge urban park in Quebec city, by the st laurent River with steep cliff, it's the site of the Battle of the Plains of Abraham, part of the French and Indian War, which was itself part of the Seven Years' War. On September 13, 1759, British soldiers under the command of General Wolfe, climbed the steep cliff under the city in darkness, surprising and defeating the French, through a single deadly volley of musket fire, causing the battle to be over within 30 minutes. Both Wolfe and the French commander, the Marquis de Montcalm, died of their wounds, but the battle left control of Quebec City to the British, eventually allowing them to take control of Canada the following year. Visitors can drive through the park, there are memorial cannon along the road, some used in WW1/2, the park has view of the river, and huge grass land, there is lots of activities held here year round. You have to visit here if in the Quebec city

John Morgan

Cannot say too much about the displays, equipment, staff & interpretive information. I learned so much. Cannot wait to go back. Quebec City is very easy to get around in. As visitors, we certainly got around very well walking & on public transit. Did not need a car. Hope to return soon????
