Check out this USA Hotel Guide. I like the way they custom write about the travel destinations. They write about the background of the place, any special places to be visited while you are there, where to stay, any event that you shouldn’t miss – well, you know the info that the usual first time visitors would like to know.
Our friends are going to migrate to Canada soon and although they are not going to stay in Montreal, I guess it will be a part of the holiday plan to visit them over the years. As the guide mentions, if you are planning to have an island getaway in Canada, then Montreal is your destination.
Reading through the guide, I can only imagine what a nice way to discover Montreal by taking a ride in the horse drawn carriage, right? Make me feel like a Cinderella..hehe! And with its French speaking population, will make me think that I am in France while I’m actually in Canada.
The Old Montreal, or Vieux Montreal as the French would say, is said to have several buildings that date back to the 1600s. I love the idea of medieval life so I will having great time taking pictures at the two famous public squares there – Place Jacques Cartier, which dates back to 1803, and Place d’Armes which features the Basilica Notre Dame.
And while I’m in Montreal, perhaps I will find the time to see the stunning show by Cirque du Soleil.
