About this listen

On this episode of Big Blend Radio’s “Travel with Terri” Show, travel writer Terri Guthrie takes us inside the iconic Fairmont Le Château Frontenac, known as the most photographed hotel in the world. Set within the historic charm of Old Quebec City, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this grand hotel is more than just a beautiful place to stay — it’s a living piece of Canadian history.

Learn about its French Renaissance-inspired architecture, its fascinating role in World War II, and how it remains a hub of luxury with award-winning dining, exclusive Fairmont Gold services, and even rooftop honeybees producing local honey. The episode also covers daily historical tours, stunning views of the St. Lawrence River, and why this landmark is truly a destination in its own right.
