Times are good in the Outaouais region. Thanks to the high-tech industry and the omnipresent federal government, the local economy has been growing rapidly for several years.
Nonetheless, the region has more to offer than a favourable business environment. The region's proximity to nature, its history and its museums make it one of the best tourist destination in North America. Even in winter, the region has enough activities and events to make the chilliest person happy.

For more information regarding the Outaouais' attractions, consult our Photo Album or register online and we will send you additional information and our promotions.

Held every year during labour day weekend, the Gatineau Hot Air Balloon Festival features more than 150 balloons of all shapes and colors and from several different countries rising in the early morning or late afternoon sky over the National Capital Region. The constant animation on the ground, between flights, is what sets apart the Gatineau Hot Air Balloon Festival from other balloon festivals. In every corner of La Baie Park, on several different stages, audiences can enjoy performances by renowned artists, comedians, singers, acrobats and musicians.

Bordering Leamy Lake, in a building with avant-garde architecture located just minutes from the Suites Victoria, the Casino de du Lac-Leamy offers you an unforgettable experience in a spectacular setting of greenery, water and light.

Inside, thousands of tropical plants, numerous indoor pools, waterfalls and walls of glass and cherry transport you into an atmosphere which is pure magic.


National Gallery of Canada

http://national.gallery.ca/english/default.htm

The National Gallery of Canada is a striking landmark against the Capital's skyline. Designed by architect Moshe Safdie and opened in 1988, this treasure house in granite and glass is the home of Canada's exceptional art collection. Light, spacious galleries and quiet courtyards lead you on a voyage of discovery through the Canadian collection, a reflection of the rich diversity of Canada's heritage and culture. Over 1,200 works from the permanent collection are on view. Special exhibitions, organized by the Gallery with other museums across Canada and around the world, highlight the work of Canadian and international artists.


Canadian Museum of Civilization

http://www.civilization.ca/indexe.asp

Only 2 minutes from the Suites Victoria, the Canadian Museum of Civilization is a museum for all people. A museum that celebrates the diversity of humankind and evokes wonder at the achievements of cultures, past and present. A museum animated by exhibitions, live performances, giant-screen excitement and the laughter of children. Walk through 1,000 years of settlement in Canada, from the earliest Viking landing site in Newfoundland through New France and Upper Canada to the Prairies and beyond in our Canada Hall. Take a fun-filled round-the-world voyage of discovery in the Canadian Children's Museum. Trek through the desert to a pyramid, help unload a cargo ship at the Port of Entry, or stroll through the bustling Market Bazaar. There are endless ways for children to learn about the world and each other. Discover how Canadians have met the challenges of communicating by mail across one of the largest and most rugged landscapes in the world through fascinating exhibitions and interactive displays in the Canadian Postal Museum. Take a seat in the IMAX/OMNIMAX Theatre and let the giant screen sweep you into the action.


Gatineau Park

http://www.capcan.ca/gatineau/eng_index.html

Gatineau Park is undoubtedly one of the great treasures of Canada's Capital Region. Located only minutes from the Suites Victoria, the park, with over 350 square kilometres of rolling, lake-strewn land between the Ottawa and Gatineau Rivers, offers Canadians a taste of their wilderness heritage. The National Capital Commission, the park's guardian, strives to preserve a delicate balance between sharing the park's beauty and the obligation to protect it for future generations. Set in the beautiful Gatineau Hills, the forests of this natural park are rich in varieties of trees (there are more than 60 kinds), animal life and many pristine-clear lakes. On a hike along any of the park's trails you may very well cross paths with a white-tailed deer, a beaver or a pileated woodpecker.


Rideau Canal

http://www.capcan.ca/explore/seasonal/rideau_e.shtml

The currents of history flow through the Rideau Canal, operated by Parks Canada as a National Historic Canal. Dating back to the nineteenth century, the Canal links lakes and rivers for a distance of over 200 kilometres from Ottawa to Kingston. Today, the Rideau Canal is one of the Capital's most popular recreational areas. In the summer, canoes and motorboats ply the waters, while walkers, joggers, cyclists and in-line skaters enjoy the recreational pathways alongside. In the winter, 8 kilometres are cleared to become the longest outdoor ice-skating rink in the world.


Parliament Hill
| Click here!
http://www.capcan.ca/attractions/parliament/index_e.html

Parliament is the heart of Canada's democratic system. Canadians' representatives meet on Parliament Hill to make laws that shape the country's future and affect the lives of every citizen. Parliament Hill is a place for national decision-making. It is also a place for people. Visitors are welcome to tour the buildings, view Parliament in action, and enjoy public programs and colourful spectacles, such as the ceremonial Changing the Guard ceremony and the Sound and Light Show. You may freely stroll around Parliament Hill and enjoy the views and statues. A self-guiding brochure is available. On the grounds, you may meet a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, costumed characters from Canada's past or knowledgeable guides who can tell you about the site.
