What I liked: At the end of 2015, the Quebec government invested $637,000 to create or renovate a number of playgrounds in the arrondissement of Sainte-Foy-Sillery-Cap-Rouge. This was one of them. (If you’re interested, the others were Doré, Plateau, Saint-Michel, Anse de Sillery, Fort, Malraux, Bélair and our local one Notre-Dame-de-Foy - but I haven’t had a chance to visit all of them yet). It is one of the prettiest parks we have been to so far, bordered by woodland on one side. The railway-themed play structures have interactive panels with real train noises, which is something I haven’t found anywhere else.
What I didn’t like: Nothing.
