While in downtown Ottawa, you can’t miss the chance to see Parliament Hill, an area of Crown land on the southern banks of the Ottawa River. Spend a nice afternoon outdoors marveling at its Gothic revival suite of buildings and their accompanying architectural elements that contain national symbolic importance and learning about the area’s fascinating history. As the home of the Parliament of Canada, Parliament Hill was originally the site of a military base in the 18th and early 19th centuries before Queen Victoria chose Ottawa as the capital of the Province of Canada. It was then that Ottawa was extensively developed into a governmental precinct in 1859 and finally finished with the completion of the Peace Tower in 1927.

One must-see stop while touring from hotels with EV charging in Ottawa, is The Rideau Canal, or the Rideau Waterway, a striking stretch of canal that connects Canada's capital city to Lake Ontario and the Saint Lawrence River at Kingston. At 125 miles long, The Rideau flows into twin waterfalls creating a curtain-like appearance where they join the Ottawa River, which is where this waterway got its namesake— as Rideau is French for "curtain."

Carve out an entire afternoon to tour The Canadian Museum of Nature, a national natural history museum in Canada's National Capital Region. This 203,545-square-foot structure in Ottawa contains a vast array of exhibitions and public programs housed in the Victoria Memorial Museum Building, with its administrative offices and scientific centers housed separately at the Natural Heritage Campus. Though the museum was originally planned as a natural history museum, it later expanded to include an anthropology and human history department, thus offering a much broader touring experience for visitors and locals alike. Wear your best walking shoes for this stroll, as you’ll cover a lot of ground leaving your EV charge station hotel in Ottawa for the day.

Also worth exploring is The National Gallery of Canada, Canada's stunning national art museum that boasts a gorgeous view of the Canadian Parliament buildings on Parliament Hill. As one of the largest art museums in North America by exhibition space, the museum's building takes up a jaw-dropping 501,824 square feet— so expect to spend plenty of time touring this incredible glass and granite building on Sussex Drive. Here, you’ll be able to take in the museum's permanent collection, which includes over 93,000 works from American, European, Asian, Canadian, and Indigenous artists.
