Review:
Montreal showcases some of the greatest examples of romantic Old World architecture in North America, preserving the city's spectacular French colonial heritage in districts like its cobblestone-lined Old Montréal neighborhood. The lovely city, which is located on an island within Québec's gorgeous Saint Lawrence River, is known for its gourmet gastronomy, home to some of Canada's most acclaimed French-influenced restaurants and global fusion joints. Visitors can explore amazing architectural landmarks like the city's Gothic Revival-style Notre-Dame Basilica or peruse the collections of stunning cultural institutions like the Montréal Museum of Fine Arts. On Saint Helens Island, theme park La Ronde transforms the exhibition space of the 1967 World's Fair into a modern-day roller coaster paradise.
