Ottawa attractions

Ottawa’s Little Italy is more than a local hub for authentic Italian food and hospitality. It’s also a diverse dining and shopping district filled with culinary offerings from Greece, India, and France, as well as traditional Canadian fare. The area’s mix of architecture, art, graffiti, and cuisine draws foodies and culture fans alike.

Soaring above Ottawa’s Parliament Hill, the Peace Tower is one of Canada’s most recognizable symbols. While it’s not the city’s tallest building, the Gothic-style bell and clock tower—which reaches a height of 322 feet (98 meters)—dominates the Ottawa skyline.
