Overview
The largest city and cultural capital of Quebec Province, Montreal is the second largest city of Canada. Lapping three-head hill at its heart, the city’s name is derived from the French word ‘Mont Royal’ meaning ‘Royal Mount’. Famous for its numerous beautiful churches, Montreal is also dubbed as the ‘City of Saints’ or the ‘City of Hundred Bell Towers’.

The Island City of Montreal is the world's largest inland port and therefore, an important hub of North American trade. The city is also ranked as number one in the world to live in for its culture, architecture, history and ambience. It is the third-largest France- speaking metropolis in the Western world.

Over the years, Montreal has won a well-deserved reputation of one of the liveliest cities of North America. With an inordinate number of attractive & fashionably dressed people and hosting an internationally acclaimed Jazz Festival every summer, the city will surely introduce you to a whole new way of living life to the fullest which the locals here call ‘Joie De Vivre’ (literally meaning ‘joy of living’). Therefore, whether its watching life go by from an outdoor cafe, shopping in an underground mall, dinning at a lively French restaurant, grooving with its dynamic nightlife or following with a jazz club, Montreal has everything to make your visit vibrant and exciting.

Hence, this Royal Mount is a unique blend of a brash New World urbanity with the romantic charm of European flavour. Where its downtown skyscrapers and luxurious business venues are a testament to the economic clout, historic districts along the cobbled streets of Old Montreal near St Lawrence River or Mount Royal makes Montreal apple of tourists’ eye.
