ottawa.com Thu Apr 5
A survey posted on ottawacitizen.com asked readers where they would bring someone from out of town. Here's a list of the top ten responses.
1. Parliament Hill
“Because there's nary a set of buildings like them on the continent. (Or should I say, OFF the continent).” - Henry Seider
2. The Rideau Canal
“Its beautiful and one of a kind, in both the summer and winter.” - Peggy
3. The Byward Market
“There are so many great restaurants, many with sitting areas outside. Also for the great stores in the area, the flowers , fruit etc. Another reason is from the market area we can then go right on over to the Rideau Centre for further shopping.” - Marlene Trudel
4. Science & Technology Museum
“It's lots of fun and contrary to popular belief, it's not stuffy or just for kids on school trips. Also, it's cheap!” - Louise
5. National Art Gallery
“Best place for non-Canadians to get a sense of our connection with and enjoyment of Nature.”
- Guy Warwick
6. Gatineau Park
"The scenery is just amazing and it is so romantic." - Jean-Sébastien Saulnier
7. Ottawa & Rideau River Bike Paths/Parkways
“Each route provides a precise of all that is this city - a metro centre that is just big enough to have many of the elements of those big sister cities like arts and entertainment, a pleasing tour of the many neighbourhoods show casing the vast array of architecture, all this with the perfect blend of trees and water. No matter whether it be the city centre or the outer reaches of the suburbs, there are people soaking up the beauty of it all. They are walking their dogs, strolling along with toddlers, taking the time to incorporate a healthy lifestyle."
- Rosalind Kee
8. The Glebe
“It's small enough to walk to everything. Shopping, pubs, parks, people. ~ The area is a vibrant, self-contained neighbourhood and people don't get much of that these days. ~~ Park your car and get outside!“ - Mike McGuire
9. Champlain Point
“Best panoramic view of Ottawa. It is also the most romantic spot in town. Not only did I fall in love with Ottawa here but it is also the place I proposed to my wife.” - Joe and Laurence Sandor
10. Mooney’s Bay/Hog’s Back Park
“Symbolizes all that is Ottawa - assortment of family/single/young/old taking time to enjoy the beauty of the vast expanses of water and open space that provides a more balanced life style. Allows us to put the rush of the downtown aside, costing only a 10minute car ride from the city core. What more could we want?” - Rosalind Kee
Hounourable Mentions
Montreal
"Because, just like San Jose has San Francisco about 1 - 2 hours away, Ottawa has Montreal. A great weekend trip and a great place to visit. ~~ Should be a bigger selling point in attracting people to Ottawa -- Californians use San Francisco to sell people on San Jose so why not ? " - Tony
Airport or Train Station
"So they can go someplace interesting"
