About this map

The St Lawrence River serves as the primary artery for this region of Quebec, where the provincial capital of Quebec sits at a strategic narrows across from Lévis. The landscape south of the river is defined by a dense network of towns like Ste-Marie and St-Joseph-de-Beauce following the Rivière Chaudière, while the Thetford Mines and Black Lake area to the southwest reveals the industrial footprint of the region's mineral extraction. North of the river, the Valcartier Military Reserve and Camp Valcartier occupy a large tract of land near St-Raymond, contrasting with the agricultural and residential patterns of Sillery, Ste-Foy, and Beauport. Transportation infrastructure is heavily represented by the Canadian National Railways and Quebec Central Railway, illustrating the rail-dependent economy connecting these settlements to the broader province and the northern border of Maine.
