Winter panorama of Quebec City and the Fairmont Le Château Frontenac

Overlooking the St. Lawrence River in winter, this image captures the historic charm of Old Quebec as seen from across the icy expanse where ice floes drift leisurely under an azure sky. Dominating the scene is the iconic Fairmont Le Château Frontenac hotel perched atop Cap Diamant, its steep roofs and turrets standing proudly against the crisp air. Snow-covered buildings nestle at the base while bare trees punctuate the hillside, adding to the wintry ambiance. A ferry boat sails by, hinting at life's persistence amidst nature’s quiet beauty.
