Plains of Abraham

Québec · Canada · Natural site

Outside the walls of Quebec City, North America's fate was decided in 1759 when General Wolfe defeated Montcalm in a battle that mortally wounded both commanders. The plains are now an urban park, but local lore insists the battle's dead still walk: a lone soldier is said to stand at the entrance to Tunnel 1 on warm evenings. Visitors describe sudden whiffs of sulphur and distant cannon fire, especially on cold September nights around the battle's anniversary. The early-1800s Martello towers are likewise said to house restless sentries.
