Don't forget the BEST part of Ottawa in the summer is the patio Restaurant's and Bistro's and Bar's that have the best action all summer, in the heart of Ottawa, from the downtown market to Elgin Street and all the action of food and entertainment that they also deliver, To our beautiful Courthouse of course, to courtyards in the Byward Market. I LOVE MY HOME. OTTAWA ONTARIO CANADA 💖😘👌😍
Yes indeed! We love patio season in Canada!
Thanks. I love my City and province and country. The best for me in this world!!!🌎😍😘
Difficult to believe at times that Canada is +99% literate based on how many poorly punctuate and spell and express themselves here. 😖
That country , especially Ottawa has so manyyyyy wonderful than what I expected ...wowwwwwwww
I am from Ottawa, trust me ottawa is very beautiful !
Never trust anyone who tells you to trust them. Trust is earned, is not a given.
Gatineau Park is not located in Ottawa. it’s located in Quebec so is Jack Cartier park and Nordic spa. So that brings your list down to 16 😂
Nutrition goals 7 Well if you are going to ottawa Gatineau is just a few minutes away... Like it’s so close it has to count...
National capital region
Ottawa is a pretty great place in the summer but it’s so much better in the winter, mainly because there are beaver tail stands everywhere but there is the canal which is awesome to skate on. Btw the best time depending on weather to go to the Rideau canal is January, that also goes for winter loued which the canal is kinda part of.
The Rideau Canal is beautiful, but one cannot live there.
The comment section is mixed feelings about Ottawa, it’s you love it or dislike it. It depends on the person. Personally I’ve lived here all my life and love it, I had no clue about some of these places, if you’re not a fan, I believe you have to do some research yourself and find things for yourself you’d find fun! That’s what I’ve been doing. In addition, I find it nice not having a lot of people.
Well its nice if you're a boring person and this is not a personal attack, it's fine to be slower and not want too much shit going on in ur life but Ottawa is boring as hell
Well no one had ask you to stay here move on plesse.🍃
Ottawa is dumb everything on this list is barely in ottawa! The only good places in Canada is like Vancouver Toronto and niagara falls I don't know what your talking about but ottawa is dumb they be charging to much money too.
Unfortunately the mosaic in Gatineau, across the river from downtown Ottawa and Parliament, no longer exists. It was only designed for Canada is 150th birthday in 2017. They extended Mosaic for one year in 2018, but will not produce this one of a kind exhibitions again.
Tamiko Lee nooooo
Get out of the city and explore the Ottawa Valley. I've been here since 1980 and there are always new surprises around the corner. Ditto for crossing the river and checking out little villages over in Quebec.
All around Ottawa is definitely beautiful. Great tip to explore Ottawa valley.
Hello 👋
Mosaica occurred during the country's 150th (two years ago, 2017). Some of the listed attractions no longer exist. Travellers check the latest information for newer attractions. Ottawa has three seasons, Summer, Autumn & Winter. It is a beautiful city with heritage pouring from every corner. We share our cites with the city of Gatineau. For the natives, it can become boring, but, as a visitor, so much to take in!
Mosaic was there last summer when we were there 2018.
@@ThePlanetD Thanks. As I mentioned, some attractions no longer exist. Hope you enjoyed it, though! 😊
Lived in Ottawa for a year. I love this city

@Thery__ guy I grew up and lived in Ottawa all my life and just love it! It is not a big city like Toronto with all the air pollution Hey fella no matter where YOU lie you would find it boring Look in the mirror and say the word!
Hello, so since you have lived for almost a year in Ottawa. What cities/places do you recommend for an international student??
Most importantly the safe places as well!???
So much hate in the comments, for one i went in an exchange program for 4 months last year and i loved it. It depends on oneself how much fun you can have in any place
Sorry but the museum you show (history ) is inn Gatineau, as is Gatineau Park, and the flower sculptures which you did indicate, Nordik spa is in Chelsea Quebec, basically this should say Ottawa Region, as a lot of the things you mention are not even in Ontario
Flying in a biplane would be an amazing experience. We'll definitely have to keep that in mind if we are ever in the area.
Great video. Nicely put together. Proud to call Ottawa my hometown!
Thank you! That means a lot coming from someone who lives there. Ottawa is a great city. We visit at least once a year!
Living in Ottawa since 1987 ❤️❤️❤️
That's awesome. Ottawa is a great city and it's now on so many lists of the best place to live in Canada. We have many friends that live in Ottawa and love it. Lucky you!
The Planet D Thank you
Wonderful video! So excited to visit Great Capital City!
I was there for Bluesfest in July. And also check out the sound and light show on parliament hill in july and August
Thanks for the additions! I would love to see the light show. It's a good reason to go back. Bluesfest must have been a blast!
Yes it was awesome. We go every year
I love Ottawa shows 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I love Ottawa. Canada’s capital is one of my favourite capital cities in the world
I did the rafting once, it was pretty fun for sure
If you want the true Ottawa experience, visit the Rideau McDonald’s ! That McDonald’s has 800 calls to the police a year, making it Ottawa’s second most reported location for crimes. Check out the teenage wannabe gangsters and all the crackheads (well known as doo-doo-cracks by the locals) and remember that the best stories take place at night !
Thanks, that's actually helpful. Rough but helpful
LOL facts man. That mcdonalds is ottawas nastiest . Dont go anywhere near that end at night time!
That place closes at 10pm now and opens 6am, a change recently put in place by city mayor Jim Watson
Omggg really
😳😳😳😳
You didn't mention the NAC or Lansdowne Park. In may, we have the tulip festival.
We'd love to visit in May for the Tulip Festival. Nex time for sure!
Ottawa, my beautiful Ottawa❤❤❤
TabbyAngel2 When you live in the US, Canada looks like a village to you. I don’t know even why they’ve named it as a country! Far far away from technology, economics, living facilities and job market from the US.
Bill Smart Far away from Donald Trump. An important reason to prefer Canada.
Lars Arens even with that guy, us is ahead of canada. The only thing they say is just the healthcare which is a joke in canada. Long waiting line which even canadians with severe diseases come to the us for treatment. Prescribed medicine is not covered, dental and eye is not covered. So, ...
canada is just an illusion made by con artists politi- cians to absorb educated people from around the world for cheap and low level works. No job, everything including housing is so expensive, weather sucks. And imagine that canada is bigger than us, the population is 1/10 of the us, then look at the quality of life for us people compared to canadian people. It’s a joke!
My dream city. I m confident that i will be in ottawa in future
No don’t it’s only decent in summer and so terribly dead in winter.
@@christina2091 i live here it's a cool city if you know where things are happening. Transit sucks tho so it's tough to do stuff where i live
Dont do it man.
I live in Ottawa don't do it lol it's a snore fest pretty though.. Old Montreal is the place to be
Yeah sure there's tons of stuff to do during the summer, try making a video like this but for winter time. There isn't very much in Ottawa during winter, pretty much winterlude and Skating on the canal.
We are actually in the midst of making a video about winter. We were there in January and are going back again this weekend. Challenge accepted :D
@@ThePlanetD yes I saw it, it's a great video but unfortunately unless people own Vehicles it's not very easy for everyone to do what you guys did in the video. We have city buses here but it's expensive at $3.50 each person for a single trip, and your transfer is usually only good for about an hour and a half, that as well as kids.. It gets expensive just to do family outings. I have my 10 year old and 9 year old step kids and then my 5 year old son and 2 year old son. It's hard to find things appropriate for all ages and not so costly :(
he visto muchos videos de Ottawa y este es el mejor por mucho, muchas gracias, (I've seen many ottawa videos, and this is the best, thank you)
Wow! Thank you very much for the very kind words.
This seems to be such a nice place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job!
Nigdy się nie skończy,bo żeby żyć bestrosko i wygodnie pozwoliliśmy się upodlic!a miasto jest brzydkie,ciężkie masywne budownictwo!
My hometown♥️. Come in the winter and skate on the canal!
Park Omega is lovely!

I guess you didn't cover food, however, having Beaver Tails and Poutine would make that list.
Yes indeed. We need to go back and do a food guide, there are so many great places to eat in Ottawa.
Thanks a lot for your video !! after your video we re gonna drop by this beautiful city when we re going back to Montreal
Check out the parks if you can

Great city! ❤
I love this town i wish i could live there 🇨🇦❤️
Ottawa is pretty awesome, even in the winter!
@@ThePlanetD i know it's really awesome ♥️
Me too! When I grow I willq
Great! What do you have to offer and contribute to Ottawa in exchange for all Ottawa provides?
@@Esmeralda-gt6uf i'll work hard ,help people and animals 💖because i wanna be a vet in the future
I live in Ottawa and didn’t know I could do half of those thing s
Damn. Lol.
😂 go visit the byward market! ( two people were killed there in the past month)
Yes, a great place to get shot by one of Turdeau's new imports...
4 shootings there in less than a month.
We should just teach them how to fight and send them back
@@anonymousdude458 Won't happen until Justine "I sit when i pee" Trudette is voted out.
😳🤔
#8. In Gatineau Quebec. #9, in Gatineau... not even open any longer. #4 in Chelsea Quebec. I get that they are close to Ottawa, but title should say what’s to do Around Ottawa. I live here, yes Ottawa can be boring, but there are a lot of sightseeing things to do. Tulip festival in spring is great, as well as Winterlude in winter on the canal.
If you watch our Ottawa Winter video, you'll see that we too agree, Winterlude is a must.
Thanks! Great video! Cheers!
Wow! A place I ever longed to be there n Canada as a whole!
CANADA ROCKS👌🖐🥰
Almost half of the activities where in Gatineau which is not even in the same province as Ottawa
Ottawa, aka Ennuie aux Rideau, where they roll up the sidewalks at sunset.
We should celebrate Canada Day 2021 !!!! It is a proud to be Canadian !!
Not "it" but WE are proud to be Canadian.
@@Esmeralda-gt6uf right!! WE is a proud to be Canadian !!
I used to live in Ottawa
Cool! when did you live there? We've been going for several years each summer and it changes every time we go. The city keeps getting cooler in my opinion. We love it!
I'm from Ottawa. We leave the city when we want to have a good time. Its a very boring city if you live here.
I completely DISAGREE. Ottawa has the best Theatres like the Shaw Centre that has amazing events. The National Arts Center that houses alot of people for amazing plays, Operas and of course Art. Do downtown Ottawa has a lot to offer
From Street vendors to food and markets vegetable stands and fruit during the summer months. There is our national park ways that are shut down on Sunday is for family bicycling days. We have nightlase we have Daylights we have many museums and food that is written in many books magazines Canadian cuisine. So , I feel bad for you if you think Ottawa Sucks, you obviously have not opened your front doors and took a step out if you live here. If you don't live here you haven't had the appropriate tourism information the internet has a lot to offer as well as many places for tourist here in Ottawa. I LOVE my City, Province and my Country. 💋💋🌎😘👍😁
Oh yah. Step out your front door. You obviously don’t live directly downtown. Step over bums drug addicts and homeless steps away from our tourist attractions and parliament buildings.
@@notyourmama6511 drug problems is everywhere in Canada and the whole world. Go to Vancouver, Toronto or even Scarborough and you'll see! Or perhaps go to Mexico, maybe you'll like it better over there
@Canadian Brownie: Agree! Ottawa, the city where they roll up the sidewalks when the sun sets.
@@elsyvalle8842 Let us not forget the innumerable many who supply these street drugs.
I might need these vids as i will be immgrating to canada
We love you already, enjoy CANADA, Ottawa Ontario Rocks. C u soon 🖐😁

You cannot "immigrate" to Canada. But you may "emigrate" to Canada and once here in Canada, you will be an "immigrant."
I live in Canada,Ottawa so I live near these place and you know who else I live near simply nail logical
No. It is Ottawa, Canada.
I’m really sad that my best friend is going to be moving there from whitehorse to Ottawa city she’s driving 10 days I will miss her so much!!
Sorry to hear your best friend is moving, but I hope you will get the chance to visit her in Ottawa!
I just had a feeling you guys were Canadian!
-From California!
Glad to live here
We are coming back for Winterlude
skating on the canal ...come on planet D

Hi, What cities/places do you recommend for an international student??
Most importantly the safe places as well!???
There are no 100% safe cities or places.
Dope Video! Sending blessing your way, Keep inspiring!🎒🙌🏻
I’m moving to Ottawa in 2-3 months and im really exited😁 but sad because my friends are not with me🥺🙏🏻❤️
Good luck with that
I love this place already
Glad to hear! We love Ottawa too.
Yes! obviously.
I love in Ottawa and you missed park omega! One of the best.
We have Park Omega in our winter video czcams.com/video/Ud7XHwfD6ls/video.html And we agree, it is the best!
It’s not in ottawa. It’s in the province of Quebec.
It’s not in Ottawa

You "love" in Ottawa?
Soooooo nothing to do in ottawa. The most exciting things in Ottawa are probably BluesFest and the Sports teams like the Ottawa Senators and Ottawa Red Blacks. But these aren't listed for some reason.
Well, we weren't there during BluesFest, plus It was summer, so the Senators weren't playing (hockey takes place in winter in case you didn't realize that) and a football game would be great, but they don't play in Ottawa all the time. They are actually only about 10 games per season in Ottawa, so if you time it right, you can make it but there wasn't one when we were there. . We highly recommend a CFL game when visiting Canada though. Hope you have a Happy Canada Day.
Ottawa sports teams are dumps
“The most exciting thing in Ottawa is the Ottawa Senators” 😂😂😂 omg bro I’m dyyyying
I would like to visit all this place I will
I went to the rideau canal
Thank you for a very informative video. 👍🏻
Amazing Video
Thank you Rebbecah! Have a great weekend.
Rebbecah Israel how are you friend please
Please make an updated video. Some of these things are not current. Great video

Great video. Going September. Lots to do there.
Have a. great time. September is a nice time of year to visit.
@@ThePlanetD thanks. Is 3 days enough time to the best it has to offer?
Hello. So nice. Thank you.
You have a more comfortable and bright behaviour then us in Europe. I like your stile.
So beautiful place also.

Hello do you guys know if you can stamp for a longer stay?
Is it worth a visit?
The Mosaiculture is right next to my school. 😂
GamingwithIzo AJ is it fun to go there ?
When I started 7th grade we went there with our geography teacher. It’s not “fun” I would say but it’s really pretty. You just walk around and look at the beautiful masterpieces.
GamingwithIzo AJ thanks a lot ☺️
Awesome, did you ever give my music a listen? Cant wait to see more!
Born and raised here, so many negative comments I have to comment. 1st I agree the public transit sucks, but as a tax payer I don`t want to pay for free loaders to travel for almost nothing, it`s adequate to commute to work and back from the suburbs, otherwise if you need to travel elsewhere go with Uber or by bicycle.
There are tons of things to do here in Ottawa, you missed the Rideau Carleton Raceway and Casino for food and entertainment, Calypso Water Park it is one large park about 40 minutes east right off the 417 highway, Ferme Rouge for food and entertainment and so many other great restaurants/bars and shops, CFL NHL and Soccer. Glad you got to the Omega Park on your winter video, it's a year round attraction, but you could have done dog sled, skiing. 1 hour south there's the 1000's Island to explore and plenty of cottage/camping life all around.
Post secondary campuses and great health care with great hospitals makes it a great place to live.
Now if they could only repave 90% of the roads and do it with quality long lasting weather resistant material.
Three are a lot of things to do for sure! We usually visit once a summer and definitely have to do another video to include more! We are going back to Omega this fall. I hear the fall colours are beautiful. And yes, love the 1000 islands. Someone could do an entire hour long documentary on all the things to do in around and near Ottawa. Cheers!
That last part is 100% fax
Amazing guys
Great job!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Sure it's beautiful, but when you live here for 25 years, it gets old.
Agree
I've only lived here a year and it's old already. :(
@@monicak.3384 I made my own little list of things to do in Ottawa ever since watching this video. Let me know if you want me to send it your way.

Go rafting in the Ottawa valley
I live there

I've lived in Ottawa for 6 years and I still have to to find something decent and not pretentious. I'm escaping as soon as I can. It's a bland city.
Farro Incarnate Biter. Ottawa and Gatineau are the place to be. Just like any place, you have to know where to go and with good people. ☺️
Smart Choice man. Dont waste any more time of your life in this city. There is simply nothing to do its almost like you live for nothing
OCC if you haven’t found the best attractions yet, you haven’t been hanging out with the right people 😂 I litterally try something new evey day this summer ! Allot of witch can be free 🤟🏼 you can just wait arround and let things happen to you, you gonout and make it happen.
Free loader come here in there mind as everything should be there.we Tax payer have to pay for them.
My friends you said the right thing move on go where life offer you free stay and meal with entertainment🎩
@@werrew1379 Dude you seriously got issues man. You're literally replying to every message saying trash. Also this whole subject/video has nothing to do with free loaders lmao. You just sound like an angry little man

Canada. Not "canada."

Will be checking out some of your suggestions! As a local influencer, is crazy that I have yet to try these places!
I know how you feel, we have not done enough in Toronto. It's difficult to explore your own backyard as a traveler. I tend to relax at home and do all my activities when I'm on the road. Have a great time exploring your city!

I went there last year and I hated that place
Does the tavern have food by any chance?
i’m moving to ottawa in 6 months and i’m so scared😖
