Montréal, Québec

Montréal stands as the singular fully bilingual gem in the heart of the French Canadian province of Québec, celebrated for its vibrant diversity, arts scene, and a reputation for perpetual construction projects. Mount Royal, a modest 230-meter mountain in the city that lends its name to Montreal, allows for a quick escape into nature with some pretty nice views from the top.
