10 Museums in Vieux-Montreal (Old Montreal) That You Shouldn't Miss
Montreal, c’est si bon! This French-speaking city is considered the cultural capital of Canada, and is a cosmopolitan celebration of Québécois style. A horse-drawn carriage ride around the cobblestone streets and grand buildings of Vieux-Montréal will give you a taste of European flavor. The Basilique Notre-Dame is a confection of stained glass, and the Plateau Mont-Royal district will delight you with its quaint boutiques and cafés. Dig in to a massive plate of poutine to fuel up for a tour of the epic Olympic Park.

I purchased a great painting from a wonderful artist named Stephanie Rivet. I find her work so refreshing and inspiring. it makes me feel good. Galerie Bloom, made sure that that wonderful feeling continued after the purchase. They took care of every step, ensuring that the painting would be crated and delivered in world class packaging and speed. Their gallery went beyond the delivery promise. Congratulations for a job so well, well done. Allen N.

Wonderful way to spend several hours admiring the history and architecture of Montréal. Great exhibitions both permanent and temporary. Plenty of hands on fun stuff for kids and big kids ???? We loved the memory collector and the multi media show. Exploring the history while basically being emerged in the actual structures was very cool. Plenty of excellent sounds and sights and “ real life “ experiences! Very reasonable on the US dollar at the moment and even the Canada rates seemed fair
