Cobblestones, narrow roads, charming old word euro-facades... no visit to Montreal is complete without strolling through the city's historical quarter. On a Monday night, all the restaurants seemed packed on the thoroughfare, including the Ben & Jerry's and Montreal Poutine. As efficiently smart "touristes", we had dinner elsewhere and did a simple walkthrough.
Let's be real, the architecture's the reason why people flock to the area. Once you get past the supposed "traps", whip out that camera, snap away, marvel and just enjoy.
