I was pretty much told that we were going to Parc du Mont-Royal by my boyfriend while we were in Montreal. I had no desire to go since I thought it was just a hill.
Driving up to the park, it was pretty scenic with trees, bicyclists just everywhere. More than half way up, there was an overlook where you can see the buildings of downtown Montreal. I thought it was so neat I wanted to stop and take a look, but we kept driving up even further.
Holy. Cow. The view left me breathless. So amazing seeing the whole city from this one point. I am so glad I was able to experience this on my trip to Montreal.
Very neat place. Can be very romantic if there weren't many people around. There was a visitor who was playing this random piano that was just placed there.
