In recent years, the region has become a popular cold-season escape-in 2024, it welcomed nearly 62 million visitors-with its winter festivals, unique culinary experiences (there's an ice restaurant), and a European-style old town called Old Québec, making it the perfect destination for travelers keen on a winter trip to Europe without the transatlantic flight."

After taking style cues from locals, I've curated 12 must-pack winter clothing pieces to help you channel an effortless European winter aesthetic while traveling and sightseeing in the cold."
