Photo: Beautiful Vieux Montreal Picture Quebec Canada
The lively and beautiful City of Montreal is the second largest city in Canada. It was originally founded in 1642 as a christian community and important port of trade for Quebec, however today Montreal both vieux and new is of more cultural importance.
Situated near the heart of Vieux Montreal (aka Old Montreal) and facing the old port, the beautiful building which houses the Bonsecours Market is considered an important heritage building.
As the city boomed during the mid 20th century, Vieux Montreal fell into decline in part due to the surrounding areas opening up for commercial and residential use. During the 1980's however, Vieux Montreal underwent a major revamp and new restaurants, cafes, and boutiques were opened. Now Vieux Montreal is a fashionable destination and a must see for visitors to the beautiful city of Montreal.
