Beautiful buildings, park-like atmosphere. NO entry fee, I was not in the mood for HISTORY so we did not go in. From the outside though, it was beautiful.

The Parliament Buildings are beautifully maintained and loaded with Canadian history. Tour guides point out the highlights in French or English. It's a must if you are Canadian or visiting Canada for the first time. Located right down town near numerous other attractions.
