Sainte Foy, Quebec
Do any of you have information on Sainte Foy?

It was the first part of Quebec City I saw last weekend, when we drove in on the bridge, and down Laurier Ave.

I was just wondering if Sainte Foy has any old town or historical areas, considering it is an old city from what I read about its history? Or is it mostly just suburban office buildings?

Was just wondering.

Well, the historic part is in Sillery district in the sainte-foy--sillery borough.

Québec got 5 historic districts : Québec, Sillery, Charlesbourg, Cap-Rouge and Beauport.

But Sainte-Foy is mostly a suburban office buildings....

Sainte foy is one of the most recent suburb of Quebec , Charlesbourg has an old area , the 'trait carré' , beauport has some old place too but those are nothing like the old walled city .

I think most quebecers see at sainte foy as an office / university+ cegeps suburban with some major shopping centers.
