Montréal is one of Canada’s most photogenic cities. Framed by mighty rivers and punctuated with a tree-covered mountain, the city is a veritable paradise for photographers.
Here are just a few of our favourite images.
Parc Jean-Drapeau
Spanning two islands in the middle of the St. Lawrence River, Parc Jean-Drapeau is where fun happens — both leisure and sporting events. It also provides so many opportunities for events!
The Palais des congrès de Montréal
Since opening in 1983, the Palais des congrès de Montréal has built a reputation for hosting exceptional gatherings, welcoming more than 6,500 events and nearly 17 million visitors. It is Montréal’s convention centre.
Atwater Market
Bursting with colours, flavours, and freshness, the Atwater Market is a popular hub for an array of local and hard-to-find gourmet products.
Mount Royal
Known to locals simply as “the mountain,” Mount Royal is more than a sprawling natural enclave at the centre of the city. It’s a beloved landmark that is emblematic of Montréal.
Winter fun!
Montréal is a city of seasons, and wintertime is especially magical. Winter is an ideal season to find “wow” moments by enjoying enchanting snowy activities.
Montréal Botanical gardens
At the Montréal Botanical Garden, visitors of all ages can explore and learn about plants from every corner of the world. Magnificent cultural gardens invite you to travel to places like China, Japan, and the First Nations through botanical traditions.
Surfing
Montréal is a city that loves to be outside. And one lesser-known fact is that the rapids of the St. Lawrence River provide a couple stellar options for stationary surfing in Montréal.
A festival devoted to circus
Every July, circus lovers enjoy the astonishing aerials and mind-blowing performances by the most talented performers from here and around the globe during the international MONTRÉAL CiRQUE Festival.
The Olympic Stadium
An international symbol of Montréal, the Olympic Stadium — and its Tower, the world's tallest inclined tower — was built in the 1970s as the main venue for the 1976 Summer Olympics.
