Montreal at a glance
Montreal, one of North America's most beautiful cities, is a glorious collision of cultures. Few cities in the world can lay claim to being as authentically multi-cultural as Montreal, the second largest French speaking city on the planet.
Montreal history
Although Montreal's history goes back long before Jacques Cartier
"discovered" the island in 1535, the intrepid explorer can
certainly lay claim to being the first European to see it from the
top of Mount Royal, the city's centrally located
mountain park.
