Tips

"Simply beautiful."

"The Tower & The Cloud!"

"I'm virtually protesting at the Canadian Parliament to tell PM Harper: Govts must stop killing their own citizens! http://ai50.ca/s/d9i5s"

"Lots of Canada events happening here. Catch the fireworks too. Happy Canada Day :)"

"Explore our history by taking a tour of Parliament Hill. Check out the Parliamentary Library with a statue of the young Queen Victoria in its centre."

"Set outside an hour of your day for the free tour! I recommend booking a tour as you will get to see some cool rooms you cannot access without a guide!"

"You don't need tickets to see memorial hall or the peace tower. Do that first while you wait for your tour to start. That way you can slip out and avoid the rush later."

"Everything is so pretty here in Ottawa!"

"last weekend may have been our nation's birthday, but we always love a visit to our nation's capital! care to be hydrated? we've got that covered this sunday."

"Make sure you go and find the cats off to the left of the center building."

"Try the yoga on the hill in the summer months!"

"it's not that steep of a hill but you should grab some hydrating vitaminwater anyways ;)"

"A must- the sound at light show- every night at 10 pm"

"Visit http://reddotproject.ca and Raise Your Voice!"

"MosAika light show runs at 10 pm each night in July!"

"During your visit to Parliament Hill, don’t forget to go on a canal ride while visiting this historical town."

"After Avril's debut album Let Go sold more than 1 million records in Canada, she received a Diamond Record from then Prime Minister, Jean Jean Chrétien!"

"Ne parlez pas trop fort pour ne pas reveiller les députés :o)"

"Free yoga on Wednesday's at 12 noon throughout the summer!"

"Mosaika (the light and sound show) it's absolutely fabulous. But it only happens in the summertime"

"The British High Commission is located at 80 Elgin Street, Ottawa ON K1P 5K7. Tel: (1) (613) 237 1530"

"한국과 달리 의회 주변 경찰력이 없다. 건물 입구부터 삼엄한 보안 시작."

"Worth taking the tour, but make sure you plan for it. Think airport security since that's what you'll essentially have to pass through to get in."
