Beaumont, Quebec
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Beaumont is a village of about 2,100 people 10km east of Lévis, next to the Saint Lawrence River, in the Bellechasse Regional County Municipality. It is a mostly rural community, with most people working in Lévis as there are no major businesses in Beaumont. It was chosen as one of the top 20 nicest villages in the province of Quebec.
It is crossed by Route 132, with many of its shops and commodities built alongside it. A few small streets are attached to the road, but the rest of the municipality is divided using the seigneurial system. The many open fields in Beaumont stretch all the way to the Saint Lawrence river, giving the visitors a large panorama.
