There's lots more to do in Montreal. You should go up on Mont-Royal, perhaps visit Beaver lake. The view is magnificient up there. Also, the St-Joseph Oratory is quite impressive. Please, also take a walk down Masson Street or Mount-Royal Street. It is quite an experience. Enjoy! ... ps: I'm from Montreal. ;0)
