Old Quebec

The only walled city north of Mexico with its ramparts still standing. Samuel de Champlain founded it in 1608 on the cliff above the narrowing of the St Lawrence, and the fortifications survived because one governor argued against demolishing them when the nineteenth century wanted the space.
