4 Amazing Days in Canada's Capital
Summer in Canada may be brief, but it's all the more beautiful: Vibrant colors and oodles of activities & events make Ottawa THE place to be for a lovely break at the end of the summer!

Ottawa is a city that's great to explore on foot: Visit the magnificent Gothic Parliament Hill (Tip: Take advantage of one of the free tours to get a peek at the inside!), then stroll over to the ByWard District for some refreshments. This is an awesome spot to explore: Shops & eateries & vibrant market stalls galore - so many exciting finds in store! Visits to the Canadian Museum of History and National Gallery are also highly recommended - as much for their fascinating exhibits - as for the incredibly photogenic buildings themselves.

When you've had enough of walking, head for the water: The Rideau Canal is one of the prettiest places to relax during summer, and paddling part (or even all) of its 4.8-mile length is a great way to see the city! For more gorgeous nature, take a trip to Gatineau Park. Located just 5 miles from Downtown, this offers extensive trails with breathtaking views and a calm lake that's perfect for swimming & kayaking.

For your stay, we recommend the Auberge des Arts: This cozy bed & breakfast receives top ratings from its guests for its amazing, friendly service, comfortable rooms, and outstanding location, literally just steps from ByWard Market, the National Gallery & Rideau Canal. Moreover, your stay also includes a good breakfast. The perfect base for making the most of your time in Ottawa!
