Discover Montreal
Montreal, the metropolis of Québec, offers all the attractions of the world’s greatest cities. But remarkable Montreal is also unique in many ways. This multicultural city’s French accent mingles with those of more than 80 other cultural communities, and its American-European flavour never fails to charm. Inventive and intoxicating, Montreal is a whirlwind of cultural creativity, from classical to avant-garde. Its downtown area bustles with activity at the foot of Mount Royal, while its past remains firmly rooted in historic Old Montreal near the Saint Lawrence river. Summer or winter, Montreal thrills to the rhythm of its many festivals celebrating jazz, comedy, cinema, fireworks and more! Discover its trendy boutiques and world-class cuisine, its 30 km-long Underground City, its lively casino. Stroll along vibrant streets and colourful neighbourhoods brimming with local charm, cycle down the many bicycle paths, or party in one of Montreal’s inviting bars and nightclubs.
