About Westmount, montreal

Indigenous peoples have lived in the Montreal area for as long as 8,000 years, and Jacques Cartier was the first European to arrive here. Champlain also travelled through, and, later, other French colonists built up a fur trading empire. Today, more than 350 years after its founding, Montreal remains a vibrant centre of French culture in North America. As the second largest Canadian city, Montreal offers some wonderful attractions. Enjoy life Montreal style!

Old Montreal and Old Port offer quaint, cobblestoned charm and 18th-century architecture. Mount Royal Park offers the best view of Montreal. Stroll the happening Saint-Laurent Boulevard and Saint-Denis Street for some great shopping and great people watching. Love archaeology? Try Point-a-Calliere Museum, which showcases key historical artifacts. Art lovers should see the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, or the Montreal Museum of Contemporary Art. If your family explores the Montreal Biodome, complete with four distinct ecosystems, be sure to check out the Olympic Stadium next door during your visit. And, for an authentic Montreal market experience, shop where the locals buy: Jean-Talon.
