Mont-Royal rises 233 meters above the city and is the green lung near the city center. A stroll through this lovely park enables the visitor to see monuments to Jacques Cartier and King George VI. The chalet has a restaurant, bathrooms, and a huge hall to warm up in the winter.
This beautiful chalet functions as a social space but its artwork and woodwork are worth the detour.
Outside, the stone façade features large windows and elegant doors. Inside, large-scale paintings by Canadian artists depict the history of Montréal. There is also a food counter, a souvenir boutique, and an information kiosk at the Chalet.
curious though- The Chalet itself is large and curiously empty. It’s a beautiful building, with wood-carved squirrels supporting the arches of the roof… and nothing inside, apart from a few chairs, bathrooms, and vending machines.
