Baie-Saint-Paul, Regional cultural center in Charlevoix, Canada
The city stretches along the northern shore of the Saint Lawrence River at the mouth of the Gouffre River in Quebec's Charlevoix region.
Established in 1650 as a settlement, Baie-Saint-Paul received official city status in 1996 and developed into a notable artistic community in Quebec.
The downtown area features numerous art galleries, museums, and studios where local artists display their creations throughout Saint-Jean-Baptiste Street.
Visitors find accommodations, restaurants, and shops within the central district, while public transportation connects to major Quebec destinations.
The entertainers who founded Cirque du Soleil performed their first shows during the Fete Foraine de Baie-Saint-Paul in 1984.
