Parliament Hill in Ottawa




Topic started on 21-7-2008 @ 07:46 PM by jsobecky


I watched a TV show last night about an elderly gentleman who took care of stray cats in a city. But the most striking thing about the show was the setting - Parliament Hill in Ottawa.

The cleanliness and old world architecture struck me as breathtaking. It was totally unlike any gov't structures I've seen in the states. It gave me a sense of awe, thinking of the history imbedded in those massive stone walls.

It is a beautiful place. I live about 4 hours away.
Like any city, it has a dark side to it, but it is clean, and we take pride in our Capital city.

Ottawa is an incredibly beautiful city, rivaled only by Victoria, BC.

All the provincial buildings in Canada look much the same, we must have gotten a good deal on stone or something.
