Sightseeing
The grandeur of Old Montreal collides stunningly with abandoned factories of the Old Port, the modernist architecture of Downtown and the charming tree-lined streets of Le Plateau, creating a distinctly unique city that’s rich in historical and modern sightseeing. On bike or by foot, a host of unique neighbourhoods are ready to be explored.
Architecture
Habitat 67
A utopian apartment block built for the Montreal Expo in 1967, Habitat is an architectural feat with stunning views over the river. Walk around the complex and in the summer check out the surfers on the river’s static wave!
Westmount Square
This remarkable 1967 residential and office complex designed by Mies Van Der Rohe remains an icon of modernist architecture and Van Der Rohe's vision.
Something Unusual
Orange Julep
A hotdog and poutine pit stop shaped like a giant orange – absurdly worthwhile and a 20 minute cab ride from the St Paul. Founded in 1932, the Orange Julep is a 24-hour landmark for when cravings hit hard. The mysteriously delicious juice has kept locals coming back for 80 years.
