National Capital Commission – Places to Visit

Canada’s Capital Region represents the heart of our great nation. It is the centre of our democracy, and a symbol of the country’s collective history, heritage, culture and natural features. It embodies the spirit of what it means to be Canadian.

Gatineau Park is the National Capital Region’s conservation park. The largest green space in the region, the Park occupies an area of more than 361 square kilometres, and is a place of rich and unique biodiversity. It is the second-most visited park in Canada, and a destination for outdoor enthusiasts to engage in recreational activities that respect the environment.

The Byward Market is one of Canada’s oldest public markets.  Shop, dine or enjoy the arts and entertainment.
