all we see are the tourist areas, Montreal is so much more...the very dense residential neighbouhoods where the people actually live, they are so unique and full of life and charm....
What you walked by and thought was the set up for a concert was the prep for the Montreal International Jazz Festival. Your breakfast was on a bagel, not a baguette. Baguette means stick of bread. There are paddle boats in the Old Port, they were visible in your video. In 1535: Jacques Cartier Deems the Mountain Royal In awe of the luxuriant landscape, or perhaps in honour of his king, Jacques Cartier named this mountain “Mont Royal”. What's cool about the Biosphere is the view from it. There is wildlife on the island that is visible from the Biosphere.
I like seeing the inside of the Cathedrals, not a 5 min tour but a 15 second pan of the worship hall and other feautures you think is cool, despite modern architecture they are often the most architecturally endowed structures in the city. They tend to be the oldest standing structures but because they are associated to religion, "modern critics" like to spit on them, not because they aren't beautiful or worth showing, but because the impression of what they think the Churchs uphold. I've seen many videos and you've only shown 1 and keep claiming "you guys say 'xyz'" or "if you've seen one, you've seen them all". I could easily diminish all the cities you travel and say "seen one city seen them all" it wouldn't make it true... being a Phoenix native myself. like your videos, being a Phoenix native myself, I really enjoy your videos.
@@IslandHopperTV the problem with old Quebec City, is no one lives there, there is no life, stores are cheap, restaurants are for tourists. Old Montreal is full of life , amazing boutiques and restaurants, cafes, people actually live there, absolutely different from Quebec. old Quebec is a tourist trap.
Personally I would've shown the Cathedral of Notre Dame because of it's relation to Notre Dame in Paris. It's historical above and beyond the Religion itself. Being Catholic I made it a point to go to Mass there because of that but also because I've never celebrated Mass in French before and it was a new experience for me in that respect but it is a beautiful building, also inside, regardless of it's purpose.
15:41 Bonjour! The name of that mountain was given by Jacques Cartier in 1535 in honnor of the king of France. 40 years later the village took the name Montréal and became a city in 1642. Bienvenue dans notre beau Québec! (prononce Kay Bec) 16:31 It's not a téléphone, it's in there that you can buy some parking time, You put money in and a card comes out that you put on the dash of your car to save you the police ticket ..... lol. 25:20 That is the 1967 U.S. pavillion for the international exposition. Good job mister!
Also in OLD french REAL was what today is ROYAL. So REAL meant ROYAL Littré (1872-1877) RÉAL (ré-al, a-l') adj. Usité seulement dans ces anciennes locutions : Galère réale, la principale des galères du roi. Le pavillon réal, le pavillon de la galère réale. Le médecin réal, le médecin de cette galère, etc. S. f. La réale, nom que l'on donnait, dans l'escadre des galères, à la galère destinée à porter le roi, les princes, l'amiral de France, ou, en leur absence, le général des galères ; elle était plus grande que la patronne, plus grande elle-même que les galères ordinaires, Jal †
The concert you are referring to is the International Jazz Festival of Montreal. The biggest Jazz festival in the world. More than 2 millions people come during 10 days!
Thank you for your videos. My husband and I and a freind are traveling from st. Louis to see niagara falls..then renting a car and drive to see st. Anne du beaupre cathedral and also see montmorency falls. We ztart our trip very soon,- july 30, 2023. Your videos are a great introduction to our first trip to canada.this is making me excited and ready to go.
Jardin bothanique i really miss that garden it's beautiful alot of flowers thanks to your beautiful video again take care bye from milton Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Notre Dame church is not a cathedral but a basilica, an honour accorded by Pope JohnPaul II. The actual cathedral is ‘Mary Queen of the World’, modeled on St Peter’s of Rome.
OMG the dome was the USA pavillion at expo 1967 aand Walt Disney came to Montreal and copy the Dome for EPCOT centre at DisneyWorld .... you missed a lot of famous places in Montreal ,,, Summer is very hot( from 80 to 95 F ) from june to end of August ... about the same weather as New York ... You missed the Belvedere at the top of the Montain looking a t the above the Skyscrapers that are not allowed to go higher than the mountain
My sister-in-law is from Montreal and me and my family are planning on going there next summer she and my brother are planning on a big wedding reception
French is the primary language in all the province of Quebec. Everywhere. English is a second language. I am from Montreal born and raised. Schools are mandatory French as first language unless your parents were taught in English in Quebec the province. All immigrants’ Education is done in French. All of Canada is legally bilingual. The province of Quebec is the only one that is legally French. We’ve been fighting for this right since the 1500s. If interested, do some research of what happened in the 70s in Quebec. We are very friendly to anyone visiting who speaks whatever language. We will do our best to accommodate. But please do not insult us if we do not speak your language. But as I said, we are people lovers. No one will be rude to you if you do not speak French especially if they see that you are making an effort. It is the people who are offended that we do not speak their language that gives the province of Quebec a bad name so to speak. I have had minimal education in English, but my desire to know the language for interest of communication got me by. June 24 is our national holiday. July 1 is Canada day. We celebrate both.
I was a foreign exchange student in Germany and it was beautiful, but this actually reminds me a lot of that. I never knew the USA was so uniquely different when compared to most other countries.
what the hell the u.s. has to do with beautiful montreal...please don't throw that garbage country.. of course ..we are french quebecers..is most european, the only country in latam
Also, check out the ethnic enclaves, including those of the Middle Easterners, Greeks, Italians, and Jews. In fact, my own Cote St. Luc plus Hampstead are predominantly Jewish suburbs, and those plus the areas down Van Horne Ave. up until about Park Avenue are full of Jewish life!
Im looking to move to Montreal one day r there any water bugs or flying cockroaches??? I have a huge phobia ans can't live anywhere where cockroaches live outside
First of all that was a bagel, not a baguette. Secondly that was not a phone booth but a parking meter pay station. Thirdly, Montréal does that stand for royal mountain. Thank you for your time ladies n gents
@@EarLyyx simple, sauf au Canada le COVID "ne passe pas". Au Québec la gestion politique de COVID a laissé des sicatrices sur la système de santé, tourisme et plus d'autres...les services sont devenus pire. Plusieurs restaurants et les affaires sont fermés...les gens quitte la mailleur ville d'autrefois.

Actually there are 4 seasons
1- almost winter
2- winter
3- winter is almost over
4- construction season
But i really love this city ❤
False we are November the 6th and it is 20c.. winter lasts 4 months ...spring summer and fall are very warm to very hot and dry...
@@jeanbolduc5818 You are to young to remember.
What is the temperature like in May and June?
@@bridgetwoodward8031 the temperature can change a lot between 10 and 20 degrees during May. However in June the temperature warms up quite a bit.
Saying that people in Montreal commonly speak French is an understatement. C'est la langue officiele du Quebec
Travel opens your heart, broadens your mind, and fills your life with stories to tell.
Love Montreal! Such a great city!
Even tho toronto has more population. Montreal will always be the #1 city in Canada in my opinion. This comes from someone who came from Toronto
I agree. Montreal is my favorite. That city is electric. Full of culture! I love it.
How about Quebec
Looks too modern for my liking
Nope
@@doggosworld2241 I live in NYC and Toranto looks so much like it

I love visiting Montreal. Last time I was there I stayed for 5 days but there was still so much more I wanted to do.
omg! i hope you stayed for the jazz festival, it was amazing this year!
definitely a walking city - look how much healthier-looking they are :-)
just fyi, that wasn't a phone booth - it was a parking payment 🙂
of course they speak french,it's the official language in quebec lol
Cool video of Montreal, feels like your in Europe. Been there twice but don't recognize the places you went. Another great travel video Jeff.
Yes it’s certainly like Europe in North America
😂😂😂
If your ever in st. Louis, we have missouri botanical garden and our japanese stroll garden is outstanding.
WOW!!!!
Parc Mont-Royal was actually designed by the same dude who designed NYC's Central park
I like it .. your videos is amazing

Another note what about visiting BOTA BOTA on the St-Laurent river in Montréal, look it up
There is no end to seeing three things in all Canadian cities! Homelessness - litter on the roads and sidewalk, and worn out asphalt
