Its the countrys second largest city two million, with another two million in adjacent towns and the continents largest French-speaking city. Its undeniably rag-tag: with its congested writhing highways, hectic intersections, potholed roads; medley of new immigrants from all over the world; and its iconic, yet often awkward, architecture.But above all its a city that knows how to have a good time, as its absurdly busy festival calendar proves. This includes some real heavyweight events too, particularly the annual Just for Laughs comedy festival and a Formula-1 Grand Prix race, as well as a glut of music and film festivals.All this is capped off by an extremely dynamic restaurant, bar and nightlife scene, which helps make Montreal Canadas most happening city and its most enjoyable city-break destination.APP FEATURE: TRIP PLANNINGKey before-you-go information, including:AccommodationCosts & MoneyInformation & MapsSeasons, Festivals & EventsTransportAPP FEATURE: NEIGHBOURHOODSMeet the key city districts:DowntownThe Gay VillageHoMaMount RoyalOld MontrealParc Jean DrapeauThe PlateauAPP FEATURE: ITINERARIESEasy-to-follow tours:Mt Royal & Downtown In-A-DayOld Montreal-In-A-DayAPP FEATURE: INTERESTS & ACTIVITIESBackgrounders and practical advice on:ArchitectureArtHistoryKids & FamiliesOutdoorsSpectator SportsAPP FEATURE: LISTINGSWhere best to eat, drink, shop and more:Bars, Clubs & NightlifeCafsRestaurantsShops & ShoppingTheatres, Cinemas & VenuesAPP FEATURE: TECHNICALOne-click website LINKS.One-click PHONE CALLS (on phones).NAVIGATE quickly using the app's global search; internal hyperlinks, and its many images.LOCATION info (using your device's GPS).Detailed MAPS and the ability to ADD YOUR OWN markers.Save and share FAVOURITES.Easily CONTACT the author.IN-APP PURCHASE:The entire contents of Montreals Best is available by installing it above.
