Part French and part English, Montreal, Canada leads an intriguing double life. Directly beneath downtown skyscrapers lies the labyrinthine Underground City, a vast network with 22 miles of boutiques, restaurants, theatres and hotels. In contrast are the cobblestone streets of Old Montreal, where the city began as a French colony in 1642. Make your way to Place Jacques-Cartier, ‘the square,” where it all happens…a theatre of musicians, mimes, street fairs and festivals Don’t miss Notre-Dame Basilica, Montreal’s older and grandest Catholic church. If you enjoy fall foliage, Eastern Canada is wonderful in late September and October.
