Galerie de la Capitale & Mega Park

Galeries de la Capitale is the largest shopping complex in Quebec and the busiest in the region. The center has many shops and restaurants, the largest Cineplex IMAX cinemas in the country and a full indoor amusement park: the Mega Park. With 19 rides, such as an Olympic skating rink, a roller coaster, a Ferris wheel, a carousel, a climbing wall, miniature golf and more, it is not to be missed.

Shopping

Among the many picturesque streets and historical buildings, your shopping experience will be one to remember. Quebec City boasts entire streets dedicated to shopping, and has nothing to envy bigger cities in that respect. Visit the Marche du Vieux-Port de Quebec, which is a large market with all kinds of natural products, from fruit to vegetable, or step into Les Galeries de la Capital, one of the biggest malls that Quebec has to offer - big enough to include a roller coaster! Art galleries, traditional glass work, vintage toy stores, crafts and design are also ubiquitous.
