4Quebec City, Canada
The historic charm of Quebec City shines in winter, when the streets are decorated with lights and a dusting of snow. This UNESCO World Heritage city is known for its European feel, with cobblestone streets, old stone buildings, and the stunning Fairmont Le Château Frontenac that looks like a fairytale castle against the snowy backdrop. Quebec City’s Winter Carnival, one of the world’s largest, includes ice sculptures, parades, snow slides, and more. The Hôtel de Glace, a hotel made entirely of ice, offers a unique experience just outside the city.
