REGIONAL SPOTLIGHT 
 
Canada's Capital
 
Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
All of Canada, all in one city
 
That's the claim to fame of Ottawa, Canada's national capital and an internationally renowned destination in its own right. 
 
A naturally beautiful city surrounded by three rivers and awash in green spaces, Ottawa is a showcase for Canadian history and culture and a leading centre for high technology. With several museums lining its historic streets, Ottawa is home to more national treasures than any other city in Canada - and that's aside from the venerable Parliament Buildings. Perched atop a limestone escarpment that looms over the Ottawa River, the Gothic-style
stone buildings are the seat of the Canadian government and a major city attraction. The daily Changing the Guard ceremony is a guaranteed crowd pleaser. Click here to read more.
