Sightseeing

A must in Ottawa. Visit The Parliament, Parliament Hill, the Peace Tower. Tours are free. To get tours of the inside of Parliament you must get to the ticket office early. The ticket office is across the street at O'Connor and Wellington St. Tours outside are free as well and normally don't usually have a wait.

The concentration of the Rideau Canal locks are best observed right off Wellington St between Parliament and The Chateau Laurier. The Rideau Canal turns into the Worlds Longest Skating rink during the Winter, into Winterlude. It runs from Downtown to Dow's Lake. Great views can also be had from Major Hill Park and Nepean Point

Arguably the best view in Ottawa. Sit at the feet of the Samuel De Champlain and enjoy a near 360 panaroma. You must take a trail on the west side of the National Art Gallery. No really known to most tourist.
