Capital Infocentre

Capital InfocentreOttawa’s Infocentre is truly an interactive experience: six computer terminals with touch screens allow visitors to create a “do it yourself” itinerary in moments. An architectural model of the capital city and surrounding area dominates the interior; by pressing buttons around the model, selected capital region attractions light up.

And, of course, a friendly bilingual staff is available to answer all your travel queries. The gift shop, with high-quality souvenirs, is also worth a visit. Take time to examine the floral emblems of Canada near the wooden benches in front of the building.
