Montreal
Canada
While Toronto remains Canada's bustling business centre and Quebec draws in nature lovers, Montreal proudly marks Canada's cultural hub. Offering French-style patisseries, rickety pubs, generations-old Jewish delis and sprawling food markets that sell heaped servings of poutine, the city's culinary scene is a huge draw. Fuelled up, explore Montreal's bountiful cultural spoils. Admire architectural triumphs such as the Notre-Dame Basilica, the Olympic Stadium and model community Habitat 67, and wander along the Lachine Canal or through Le Plateau Mont-Royal before spending the evening settling down in any of the city's many theatres for a night of comedy, jazz or musical mayhem.
