This article will feature 10 fun things to do when visiting Montreal! From cultural and sporty activities, to typical Canadian foods to try, we hope these suggestions take all preferences into account.<\/p>\n<p>Montreal is an absolutely wonderful city, offering a wide range of varied activities during every season.<\/p>\n<p>Without any further ado, let\u2019s begin!<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3>Zoo Ecomuseum<\/h3>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&#8220;A zoo?&#8221; You might say. We all know what zoos are like, well brace yourself because this zoo is anything but traditional. In fact, this is a zoo for animal species from Quebec only. Some people don&#8217;t agree with zoos, thinking of them as a prison for animals. However, this is more of a sanctuary, as these animals would not survive on their own in nature. They have either lost their parents, have been physically hurt, or simply too used to being raised under professional human care.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"pic-box wp-image-4643 size-full alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.applelanguages.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/montreal.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"188\" \/>This special zoo occupies a surface area of 11 hectares.\u00a0The Ecomuseum Zoo in Montreal allows visitors to discover the daily life of the animals they look after. There are even special activities which take place on fixed dates throughout the year. One of the favourite things to do is breakfast time with the animals. Here you can help with a presentation of an animal (tortoise, lynx, bear\u2026) whilst also enjoying a continental\u00a0breakfast. You then will get your own hands dirty to prepare the animal\u2019s breakfast, serving it in their habitat. There are also activities which allow you to discover what happens behind the scenes as soon as the zoo closes, scientific games and much more!<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Wolves, coyotes, porcupines, otter, owls and many other animals await you at the Ecomuseum Zoo in Montreal!<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.zooecomuseum.ca\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Zoo Ecomuseum<\/a> &#8211; <em>21125, Chemin Ste-Marie, Ste-Anne-De-Bellevue, H9X 3Y7<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Igloofest<\/h3>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"pic-box wp-image-4645 size-full alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.applelanguages.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/montreal1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"188\" \/>Igloofest is an electronic music festival which takes place once a year every January for a total of three weeks. A big stage is installed by the Old Harbour of Montreal and all the surroundings (monuments, buildings) are beautifully illuminated.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The immense crowd is energetic, happy and friendly, so it is a good way to make new friends! One very important thing to mention is that you should dress for the cold. Almost as if you were going to go skiing! There are stalls for drinks and wood fires on-site to warm you up, but don\u2019t neglect your warm clothing!

It is known for its complicated and ornate inside, which incorporates coloured glass chronicling the <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"pic-box wp-image-4646 size-full alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.applelanguages.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/montreal3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"188\" \/>historical backdrop of the city. It is also a major tourist attraction of Montr\u00e9al.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Despite its importance for tourism (it receives around 2,500 visitors per day in the high season), the Basilica continues to fulfil its religious mission. It is a place of worship where over 120 baptisms and over 120 marriages are celebrated every year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.basiliquenotredame.ca\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Notre-Dame Basilica of Montreal<\/a> &#8211; 110 Notre-Dame Street West, Montr\u00e9al (Qu\u00e9bec), H2Y 1T2<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Poutine<\/h3>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"pic-box wp-image-4648 size-full alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.applelanguages.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/montreal4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"188\" \/>Poutine (pronounced poo-tzeen) is the regional specialty of Quebec. It consists of french fries topped with cheese curds and hot gravy. This fast-food dish can now be found all across all of Canada and even in some places in the United States.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Don&#8217;t neglect a visit to a poutine restaurant on your next visit to Montreal!<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Here we have given you a list of the six best places to have poutine in Montreal.

However, you can find one in Montreal, in the borough of Saint-Leonard, where the famous Saint-Leonard caves are located. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"pic-box wp-image-4651 size-full alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.applelanguages.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/montreal7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"188\" \/>Go explore them and discover mysteries about the earth from the time of the glaciers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">There are numerous stories and legends about this site. Native Americans are thought to have lived there many years ago. Some people even think Patriots used the site as a place to store their weapons during the Rebellions of 1837. However, no evidence has yet been found about any of these stories.<\/p>\n<p>Today, the place organises guided visits from May to August. Special guides\/experts in speleology will take you through the fascinating underworld. Most of the material you need for caving is provided on site. However, you are expected to wear long clothes, wellies and gloves. Happy caving!<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em><strong>Caverne de Saint-Leonard <\/strong>&#8211; 5200 Boulevard Lavoisier, Saint-L\u00e9onard, Quebec, H1R 1J2, Canada<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.speleo.qc.ca\/index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=article&amp;id=158&amp;Itemid=118\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Caves of Saint-Leonard<\/a><br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Montreal Botanical Gardens<\/h3>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-7627\" src=\"https:\/\/www.applelanguages.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/montreal25.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"188\" \/>The Botanical Gardens of Montreal are considered amongst the most important in the world. They offer fantastic year-round events: exhibitions, animations, etc. You will find over 22,000 species of flowers, exhibition greenhouses, the <em>Maison de l\u2019arbre Frederic-Back<\/em>, the Insectarium (to discover the fascinating world of insects) and around 20 themed gardens. All of this sits on 75 hectares of land. Montreal&#8217;s Botanical Gardens is the perfect place to fuel up on fresh air and admire the nature&#8217;s beauty.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The site is only a few minutes away from the city centre of Montreal, which is ideal for a short break.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em><strong>Montreal Botanical Gardens, <\/strong>4101, rue Sherbrooke Est, <\/em><em>Montr\u00e9al, Qu\u00e9bec, Canada, H1X 2B2<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/espacepourlavie.ca\/en\/botanical-garden\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/espacepourlavie.ca<\/a><br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Cross-country skiing in the Pointe-aux-Prairies Nature Park<\/h3>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"pic-box alignleft wp-image-4653 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.applelanguages.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/montreal9.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"188\" \/>Located only 20 kilometres away from the city centre of Montreal, the Pointe-aux-Prairies Nature Park is the ideal place for enthusiasts of outdoor activities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Cross-country skiing is one of the most popular activities in the winter. You can rent all your necessary material (skis, boots and sticks) on-site. Skiing close to a metropolitan city has never been easier!<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>14905, rue Sherbrooke Est, Montr\u00e9al (Qu\u00e9bec), Canada, H1A 3X1<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Hiking on Mount Royal<\/h3>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"pic-box alignright wp-image-4654 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.applelanguages.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/montreal10.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"188\" \/>Mount Royal, or Mont-Royal, attracts locals and tourists alike, particularly those who enjoy physical activity. In the summer, the park is full of hikers and joggers, while in the winter cross-country skiers and snowshoers frequent the paths and stairs that lead up to a variety of wooded areas and landscapes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The park lies in the midst of Montreal island and includes the highest spot in the city (234m). Walking to the summit of Mont Royal is a 6-7 km (approximately 45 min) hike. The view from the top is incredible! Again, this is perfect for breaks from the bustling city, or to just end a successful day of exploring with an incredible view!<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em><strong>Mount Royal Park<\/strong> &#8211; 1260 Remembrance Road, Montreal, Quebec, Canada, H3H 1A2<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We hope these activities and sights have inspired you to go on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.applelanguages.com\/en\/learn\/french\/canada\/montreal.php\">language course in Montreal<\/a> whether it is in the summer or winter, to learn French or English.
