The old city has a lot of history shown in its buildings and churches. A lot of cafe and art boutiques. I bet in summer it is much more alive. A lot of cafes and restaurants were closed and streets are empty. It was freezing.

I really had the feeling that I am in Europe. We took a walking tour with an official guide, Louis, it was amazing. Actually the new buildings were indistinguishable from the old one, because they have sort of melt it together. The style of the new buildings has to match the style of the old one next to it. I recommend everyone a walking tour in the Old Montreal. It takes about one and a half hours.

Just walking through the streets makes you feel as though you are in Europe. The architecture is beautiful and people are relatively friendly as well. My three kids (all under 10), however, just could not appreciate the its artistic and historical elegance. They were happier going to the Biodome and Insectarium instead. The cathedral of Notre Dame was amazing...

Vieux Montreal (or Old Montreal) is the oldest area in Montreal, dating back to the colonial times (the 1600's). It is worth a visit for a tourist or new-comer. It is good to start with the 1hr30min cruise ride in the watters of Saint Lawrence River. Then you can take the 45-min bus ride and go around most important places. A visit to Basilique ...
