It is basically a quiet city. If you are travelling in Canada I would recommend to spend at least a couple of days in Ottawa. To see the Parliament building any time of the year or to iceskate along the river in winter.
|
The only place to go at night is the market. For budget accommodation I would suggest the Youth Hostel near Ottawa U Campus. It is an old jail with an extraordinary atmosphere.
|
|
Favourite spots: |
The market. The Bytown moovie theater, for independent films. The Ethiopean Restaurant opposite Bytown cinema.
|
|
What's really great: |
The parliament building, the river, walking along the marketplace on weekends or anytime in the sumer. Second cup. Some cute cafes scattered in the market. The old jail converted in a Youth Hostel.
|
|
Accommodations: |
Youth Hostel next to Ottawa U Campus which is an old jail.
|
|
Other recommendations: |
The river.

Hi Lidia,
This is good information, but a bit short. Maybe you could add additional information so that your report helps future travellers to Ottawa . Some pictures would be nice too. Travel writing is really difficult, I experienced that myself when I started writing. Maybe it is a good thing to keep in mind: what information is needed to make a visit to ottawa easier for people who have never been there before.
I hope you will become a regular contributor to GLOBO and hope to read more travel accounts.
