What to do and see in Montreal, Canada: The Best Government Buildings

October 10, 2021 Vivienne Hutton

Montreal, c’est si bon! This French-speaking city is considered the cultural capital of Canada, and is a cosmopolitan celebration of Québécois style. A horse-drawn carriage ride around the cobblestone streets and grand buildings of Vieux-Montréal will give you a taste of European flavor. The Basilique Notre-Dame is a confection of stained glass, and the Plateau Mont-Royal district will delight you with its quaint boutiques and cafés. Dig in to a massive plate of poutine to fuel up for a tour of the epic Olympic Park.

City Hall

This ornate building exemplifies Second Empire architectural design.

A magnificent building with great history. City hall was rebuilt after a fire destroyed it in 1922 and it is a really awesome building. Ex French president Charles de Gaulle proclaimed his. Famous speech from its balcony, so much history.
