| - Montreal is a beautiful, but large city that contains quite alot of architecture to look at. During the winter (when I visited), it was VERY cold usually dipping into the single digits (F) to negative temperatures. Their downtown is quite large and contains an "underground" city that goes for miles. Above ground there are many sight-seeing attractions that are all within a walking distance of each other, including the Bell Centre, Place des Arts, Complex Desjardins, Notre Dame Basilica, St. Patrick's Church, Chinatown and Old Montreal. I highly recommend taking the Metro to the outskirts of the city as it is very easy to get acclimated to it. They have a small Metro system, but it's clean, efficient and easy to access. I would love to come here in the summer as well when it is warmer, but if you want to experience Montreal for it's well documented cold weather then definitely come here in December-February!
