Quebec City - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography (3310 words)
Quebec City is known for its Winter Carnival and the Château Frontenac, an historic hotel which dominates the city skyline.
In French, Quebec City is generally referred to simply as Québec without the French equivalent of the word "city." French names of large geographical regions such as provinces and countries are typically preceded by articles whereas city names are not (unless it is part of the name, such as "La Malbaie").
In mid-2001, 13.0% of the resident population in Quebec City was of retirement age (65 and over for males and females) compared with 13.2% in Canada; therefore, the average age is 39.5 years of age compared to 37.6 years of age for Canada as a whole.
