home > Canada > Ontario > Ottawa


Standing at the confluence of three rivers Ottowa is a city of public parks, wide streets, and some impressive old buildings, made all the more attractive by the presence of the famous red-coated Mounties. Ottawa thrives on the outdoors and offers white water rafting, canoeing, and skiing in the winter months, while the parks afford the jogger and cyclist plenty of green space. Deemed one of the most beautiful capitals in the world, Ottowa has a cosmopolitan charm and a dynamic cultural scene.

 

Ottawa is also easily accessible by train and bus, while major highways link the city with Toronto, Montreal, and the U.S. border. If negotiating Montreal’s busy streets is just too much to contemplate there are taxis and buses available, and for extra fitness and saving the planet from pollution, there are bicycles available for rental.
 

The newly expanded Ottawa International Airport hosts direct flights from most major North American cities.
