This is just a snapshot of what you can do when visiting Montreal. From cool modern architecture to scenic river cruises to thrilling nightlife, the city will reward visitors with its fantastic sights, tastes, and experiences.

]]> People often remark that the Quebec capital city of Montreal is like the perfect mix between the old world and the new world. Strongly influenced by French cities such as Paris and Bordeaux, this Canadian destination has a strange ability to make people feel like they’re in Europe.

If you are wanting to feel that European vibe without crossing the pond, here are three Montreal hot spots that you should definitely check out.

Notre Dame Basilica

The Notre Dame Basilica, the city’s most recognizable monument, dates back to Montreal’s time as a colonial city. Architect James O’Donnell was commissioned to design a cathedral for the growing city, and the result was this Neogothic gem with one of the most impressive interiors of any cathedral on Earth.

Old Montreal

The aforementioned basilica is located in the city’s historic section, known as Old Montreal. Here, you will feel like you’re in a French city as you make your way through cobbled streets past buildings that date back to Montreal’s history as a part of New France.

Bonsecours Market

The Bonsecours Market is now mainly used to house government offices, but the exterior of the mid-19th century building looks like something straight out of Europe. It served as Montreal’s public market before being changed to its current use after being built in 1847.

]]> North America might be the most sports-obsessed region on the planet, and the variety that it hosts in team sports is unmatched.

There are four main leagues of team sports in the US and Canada: Major League Baseball, the National Basketball Association, the National Hockey League, and the National Football League.

Here are our top suggestions for a city and stadium to have the best experience of watching one of these games from each league.

MLB: Fenway Park, Boston, Massachusetts

The quintessential baseball stadium is Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox. Its iconic Green Monster wall is the highlight of this century-old stadium that seats a cozy 37,000 fans.

NBA: Madison Square Garden, New York, New York

The epicenter of basketball in the world has to be Madison Square Garden in New York City. Home of the New York Knicks, this well-known arena has been host to some of the greatest moments in the league’s history.

NHL: Bell Centre, Montreal, Quebec

It’s only natural that you’ll find the best NHL arena in hockey-obsessed Canada. The home of the Montreal Canadiens provides fans with a passionate atmosphere and state-of-the-art technology.

]]> Thinking about heading to Canada this summer? Here are 5 reasons you should add Montreal to your trip, especially if you are on a budget.

Osheaga music festival

Cross over the bridge or jump on the metro to ‘the island’ for Osheaga music festival. Not only is it one of the most vibrant, artistic and friendliest festivals I’ve ever been to, Arctic Monkeys and Florence and the Machine are headlining this year.

Free Festivals all summer

If you don’t want to splash out on an Osheaga ticket, that’s ok, because Montreal hosts free festivals for everyone all summer. Streets are closed and stages are built around the city so that everyone can join in the fun. The international jazz festival and Les FrancoFolie are just two of the fantastic city festivals you have to look forward to this summer.

The International Firework Competition

In August, Montreal hosts an international firework competition. The bridge that connects Montreal to the island is temporarily closed off so that locals and tourists alike can sit on the bridge and watch the fireworks. It’s amazing.

Tam-Tams

When summer gets going and things heat up, the people of Montreal will show you how to have a good time. An example of this is Tam-tams, which takes place at the bottom of Mont Royal every Sunday in summer. People gather to picnic, dance, and drum together. It’s a real feel-good vibe.

Free swimming

When it gets hot, public pools open all over the city. You can also head over to the island to swim at the buzzing man-made beach or jump in St Lawrence River to cool down.

]]> North America might be the most sports-obsessed region on the planet, and the variety that it hosts in team sports is unmatched.

There are four main leagues of team sports in the US and Canada: Major League Baseball, the National Basketball Association, the National Hockey League, and the National Football League.

Here are our top suggestions for a city and stadium to have the best experience of watching one of these games from each league.

MLB: Fenway Park, Boston, Massachusetts

The quintessential baseball stadium is Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox. Its iconic Green Monster wall is the highlight of this century-old stadium that seats a cozy 37,000 fans.

NBA: Madison Square Garden, New York, New York

The epicenter of basketball in the world has to be Madison Square Garden in New York City. Home of the New York Knicks, this well-known arena has been host to some of the greatest moments in the league’s history.

NHL: Bell Centre, Montreal, Quebec

It’s only natural that you’ll find the best NHL arena in hockey-obsessed Canada. The home of the Montreal Canadiens provides fans with a passionate atmosphere and state-of-the-art technology.

]]> Thinking about heading to Canada this summer? Here are 5 reasons you should add Montreal to your trip, especially if you are on a budget.

Osheaga music festival

Cross over the bridge or jump on the metro to ‘the island’ for Osheaga music festival. Not only is it one of the most vibrant, artistic and friendliest festivals I’ve ever been to, Arctic Monkeys and Florence and the Machine are headlining this year.

Free Festivals all summer

If you don’t want to splash out on an Osheaga ticket, that’s ok, because Montreal hosts free festivals for everyone all summer. Streets are closed and stages are built around the city so that everyone can join in the fun. The international jazz festival and Les FrancoFolie are just two of the fantastic city festivals you have to look forward to this summer.

The International Firework Competition

In August, Montreal hosts an international firework competition. The bridge that connects Montreal to the island is temporarily closed off so that locals and tourists alike can sit on the bridge and watch the fireworks. It’s amazing.

Tam-Tams

When summer gets going and things heat up, the people of Montreal will show you how to have a good time. An example of this is Tam-tams, which takes place at the bottom of Mont Royal every Sunday in summer. People gather to picnic, dance, and drum together. It’s a real feel-good vibe.

Free swimming

When it gets hot, public pools open all over the city. You can also head over to the island to swim at the buzzing man-made beach or jump in St Lawrence River to cool down.
