Montréal Montréal is a city that exudes excitement and joie de vivre, blending the old with the new in a melting pot of Anglo-French culture. The skyscrapers that dominate the skyline reveal little of the quaint, cobbled streets of Old Montréal or the art galleries, parks and churches that can be found in every corner of this, the secondlargest French-speaking city (but fully bilingual) outside of France. Enjoy a visit to Old Montréal's famous landmark, the Basilique Notre Dame and learn about the city's past at the Montréal Museum of Archaelogy and History. Don't forget the Olympic Park or the beautiful Botanical Gardens. Montréal is a place ruled by its passion for fun, food, theatre and entertainment, best enjoyed during its world-famous jazz and comedy festivals.
