Five things to see/do in Montreal: Spend some time getting to know Old Montreal (Vieux Montreal). This well preserved historic neighborhood in the center of the city is one of the oldest in North America, with an unmistakable “European” feel and loads of beautiful architecture.
Montreal offers a wealth of museums for every taste. The Museum of Fine Arts (Musee des Beaux-Arts) is one of the biggest and best in Canada, while the Railway Museum is a must for train enthusiasts.
Take a hike up to the top of Mount Royal for some nice views of downtown Montreal. The parks on and around the mountain offer a variety of recreational activities year round.
Downtown Montreal is great for just wandering around and people watching in the summer. Streets such as St. Laurent, St. Denis, and Ste. Catherine have an amazing variety of cafes, bars, and restaurants.
The Montreal Botanical Gardens, located in Olympic Park (Montreal hosted the 1976 Olympic Games), is one of the city’s biggest attractions, with an amazing variety of flora from around the world (over 20,000 different types), and many theme-based gardens.
