Location and Facilities

Ottawa is the capital of Canada and the centre of Canadian government. The buildings of Parliament Hill look like they have been transported directly from Europe! The site of numerous festivals, light shows, tours, and of course, Royal Canadian Mounted Police parades, Parliament Hill has something everyone should see!

In winter or summer, the Rideau Canal offers visitors to Ottawa a unique experience. 7.8 kilometers long, in winter it is the world's largest ice-skating rink; and in summer, it provides a perfect sightseeing route for recreational boating. You can enjoy walking, rollerblading or cycling along its banks too!
