Some define their lives by the way they eat. Montréal boasts outstanding restaurants with local and international menus from which to educate one's palate and quench one's passion for culinary adventure.
Others express themselves in the way they look. The catwalks of Montréal's fashion parade the avant-garde, the traditional European and the comforts of relaxed wear. The array of department stores and individual boutiques celebrates a shopping experience that ranks up there with the most famous cities of the world. Others again display their true nature in what they do. Whether Montréalers choose to sit on a park bench on a sunny afternoon or on an outdoor terrace at a bistro, whether they opt for something a little more active, such as cycling or rock climbing, or whether their penchant leans toward the cultural, such as the opera, the ballet, a Jazz concert or an art exhibition, the activities and services that one finds in Montréal are limited only by one's imagination. Finally, the city's joie de vivre is articulated in the way that Montréalers communicate. They officially speak two languages, French and English, vibrantly conveying the co-existence of two principal cultures and many other ethnic groups that form the spirit of this diverse community-based metropolis. Marry this joie de vivre to a landscape of stately Victorian homes, buildings that are centuries-old, an active port, beautiful parkland such as Mount Royal rising above the heart of the city, the Montréal Botanical Garden, second only to London's Kew Gardens, artistic, cultural and sporting institutions, as well as modern skyscrapers, and you have a colourful mosaic of Montréal's unique qualities. Montréal is ready to welcome you! With a fine selection of hotels, venues and meeting sites, this wonderful city is capable of accomodating even the most challenging program. |
