The location of Kingston was though to be strategically selected as the St. Lawrence River and Cataraqui Rivers join Lake Ontario. Canada’s native culture and ‘First Nations‘ were here before European settlers ever thought about setting foot here. History is all around you as you walk through the streets or visit historic buildings.  Kingston is known as the “limestone city”, as many of its homes and building were constructed using limestone as the main building blocks. Many of these building were some of the first in Canada.
