In the last few years the area around the 19th c. Old Port (Vieux Port) in Quebec has been turned into a National Monument. What was once a hive of commercial activity centered on the Bassin Louise now has more the air of a leisure park. But the 19th c. is brought vividly to life again in the Center d'Interprétation where visitors are treated to an excellent audio-visual presentation on the shipbuilding industry, the lumber trade, and Québec's commerce. Fine views of the picturesque Old City, the St Lawrence River, and the Laurentian Mountains can be enjoyed from the special observation platform in the Center.
