A great city especially to cycle and walk around
Ottawa very picturesque city and very walkable. Rideau canal is a must. Canadian war museum also excellent- parking on site- underground- but quite difficult to find car park- esp at present as roadworks on street.
The Ridout area is excellent Centre Ville is soulless Ridout canal and locks were the high spot
canal cruise worth a trip
One of the best cities to walk around, the local transport is very good
