Parliament Hill, Ottawa.
As you can see it is under construction/renovation. You can read more about the renovations here. What I did think was neat was the huge covers all around the building that had the print of the building on it. Hubby said old Donald has the same around the White House? Maybe the US readers can confirm that?
This is the Centennial Flame. Again you can read more about it here.
Even if I enlarged the next two photos, you will not be able to see the info. Also for some reason I cannot delete photos from a blog post. If anyone can give me pointers on doing that, I would be very grateful!
Loved the gargoyles (?) hanging off the clock tower. Also the detail work in the clock tower is amazing.
Queen Victoria.
Lester B. Pearson. There were many more statues of Prime Ministers around the property, but many you could not see because of the construction.
Another one of the buildings, again lovely details.
This one is my favourite photo, of all the metal work against the sky.
It was a perfect Fall day.

The Canadian parliament buildings are beautiful in their details. Too bad so much was covered due to construction, but at least they tried to show the whole.
Wow! Beautiful photos, Gill! I have been there a few times, but not in decades! Thank you so much for sharing.
I enjoyed seeing your photographs.
All the best Jan
