From Montreal to Quebec City along the King's Road

Most travelers take the freeway to get from Montreal to Quebec City as quickly as possible. They don't know what they're missing. The King's Road, on the other hand, leads directly along the north bank of the St. Lawrence through idyllic villages and offers beautiful views of the St. Lawrence River.

At first glance, Piran doesn't look like a fishing village. The city's square, Piazza Tartini, is too grand and too big for that. In its midst, the namesake of the square, the city-born musician Giuseppe Tartini, watches over the place. In the harbor, however, we see the boats bringing fresh fish ashore.
