it might be a hidden gem for you- one of the most scenic panoramic views of the region and notable landmarks, such as the Château Frontenac, Dufferin Terrace, and St. Lawrence River. There are two ways to get to Pierre-Dugua-De Mons Terrace. The first is to walk across Dufferin Terrace to the end of the wooden slide runs. The second is to walk up from Avenue Saint-Denis. Any photo you take at the terrace, no matter the season or the time of day, would be as pretty as a postcard. Go for a stroll along the walls of the Citadel located next to the terrace. The view here encompasses many of Quebec's famous sites: On the left, there is the eminent Chateau Frontenac, a luxury hotel built to attract visitors from around the world; in the center, there is the historic Quebec old town, a UNESCO world heritage site; and on the right is the St Lawrence river, dominating the landscape and dotted with the occasional cruise ship to bring people from far-flung lands into the city.
Alot stairs to climb, estimated to be three hundreds, but was told about four hundreds. The scenery at the top was magnificent, worth well the efforts. Saw a escalator is being built.
I visited towards the end of April 2019. It was a little chilly this year. Mid May is probably the best time to take in this spectacular view. The night view is especially photogenic. And for fans of "Goblin", the sight was definitely a feast for the eyes.
The place is beautiful as always but it is difficult to get around, which is understandable. The views are breathtaking each time I go up there, the long journey up was truly worth it despite my time being there short. Unfortunately, it was raining at the time of my visit but that is something that cannot be controlled.
Beautiful view, well taken care of. Be ready to climb because there is a nice view awaiting you at the top. There was no access to the Citadel when we visited and the was construction in between. It was totally worth the climb.

Breathtaking panoramic views of Quebec's historic landmarks from a scenic terrace.
