I love visiting cities, and Montreal was a great quick get-away from our home in New Jersey, about a 7-hour drive.
This is the view from our hotel window. What an unexpected delight to throw open the curtains and see this view! This is the cathedral of Mary Queen of the World, sandwiched between a cluster of modern skyscrapers.
Well it was chilly, but pretty! We're used to the cold, anyway!
It had just snowed the night before we arrived, so the city glittered with snow and Christmas lights!
Here we are at the top of Mont Royal.
The Notre Dame Cathedral was beautiful! The sights are easily accessible on foot or by metro. The snow made it a little more of a challenge, but we walked everywhere.
Many thanks to VTer LieStef and others in the forum for their great advice!

Very interesting Montreal page!!! I'll be there this summer. Ciao
Tremendous Intro pic!
Headed downtown with my family to the Chez Cora on 1425 Stanley and was surprised to find out that they have moved to 1240 Drummond street,...Just down the street from the prevous location...Huge! no lign ups...great! great! great!
Great Montreal tips! love the photo of old montreal......!
Happy New Year Nicoletta ! Great Montreal page.
great page!
Cool site, with useful tips... I will have to pay your site another visit closer to my departure to Montreal.
Enjoyed your Montreal page very much. Montreal is definitely on my "must see" list and you have very good tips.
Looks like you had a great time in Old Montreal. I reccomend that you check out Quebec City as well. I think it is amazing, and with even more character than Montreal. Safe travels from travelling Canadians!
Excellent job on the PICS,I would just like to say, that Old Montreal in the summertime is the place to be. It has lots of bistros, restaurants, dance clubs, patios, and awsum street performers.
