Montreal in the Summer

written by Teresa Nielsen

In need of a getaway? Why not travel to magnificent Montreal, Canada.

The second largest city in Canada, Montreal offers plenty of sights to see within walking distance or a short bus ride! The Olympic Stadium, home the 1976 games, is most popular for its unique circular shape. While at the Stadium, climb to the top of the world’s tallest inclined tower, the Tower of Montreal! Visit historic Old Montreal, originally a French settlement, this site loaded with history that is sure to captivate you. Finally, be sure to walk through one of the many churches, especially the beautiful Basilica Notre-Dame de Montreal. Completed in 1829, this glorious Basilica is known for its stain glass windows and brilliant paintings.

Realtraveler Gidget Bones describes a day of sightseeing in Montreal:

“I am home after 7 wonderful days and 6 fantastic nights in Montreal! The city was much more than I expected. Everyone was very friendly, even when I spoke broken French to them. I was running the entire time between work and functions. I did get to walk around the city one day. I started at 9am on Saturday and finished at 10pm that night. I went shopping, and sight seeing. I stopped at every cathedral and took pictures. I went to Ste. Marie, China Town, Old Town, Latin Quarter, on the metro, there was so much history to see.” (more…)
