La capitale du Canada francophone possède une combinaison enviable d'histoire, de cuisine et d'événements culturels ininterrompus. Les randonnées à pied et à vélo sont parmi les meilleures façons d'explorer les quartiers de la ville - du Vieux-Montréal (Vieux-Montréal) à Chinatown - et de visiter des sites incontournables tels que la basilique Notre-Dame, le mont Royal et l'Oratoire Saint-Joseph. Montez à l'observatoire de la tour de Montréal pour une vue panoramique sur la ville ou réservez une visite gastronomique pour vous immerger dans la scène culinaire aux influences internationales. Montréal est également idéalement située pour des excursions d’une journée à la chute Montmorency, à Québec et aux vignobles de Québec, ainsi que pour des excursions d’observation des baleines à Rivière-du-Loup.
Montreal does winter in style. From December through March, a heated Underground City pops up, and there's an exciting program of festive holiday events such as Merry Montreal, Igloofest, and the Fête des Neiges. After the thaw, the city comes out to play with a gamut of festivals including Osheaga, MUTEK, Montreal Pride, and the Montreal International Jazz Festival.
Montreal is the largest city in Quebec, and is famous for its French heritage (visible in the historic Vieux-Montreal, or Old Montreal) and bilingual sensibility. The city is renowned for its lively nightlife, acclaimed museums, and destination-worthy dining scene, and for having hosted the Expo 67 and 1976 Summer Olympics.
