I just had a 4 day vacation to the lovely and rommantic city of Montréal, Quebec. First off, I'd like to say that Montréal is a very inviting francophone city and has a lot to offer. The botanical is fantastic. I know a lot of us when we go places, don't want to do the touristy thing and want to... more

The Montreal Botanical Garden is supposed to be the second largest botanical garden after Kew Garden in London. There is a lot to see in it and there are really many, many highlights: the quiet Japanese Garden, the Chinese Garden with its beautiful view, the enourmous greenhouse with the very rare Wollemi Pine (behind bars!), the bonsai garden, and so... more

Oh my god! This place is enormous, me and my friends got tired of walking, there are dozens of different gardens. It's a great place for flower lovers or people who like to feel surrounded by nature. more

fantastic place- makes the NY botanical gardens look like amateur night. Spent over 4 hours ans bring lots of film. The Chinese and Japanese gardens are great, almost like being in Asia.- The greenhouse with orchids, cacti etc. is unbelievable. The bonsai collection is incredible. Free tram to get you around. Cheap at $16- they need to raise the price!!! more

Were from... more

Life-changing experiences are far & few between. I was lucky enough today to have had one of the most amazing I have ever had ! The Garden of the Senses at the Botanical Gardens in Montreal is modest in size compared to other parts of the huge Gardens, but makes up for it by changing you forever ! My friend... more

I visited in early May and the gardens were not formally opened at this time; however, the tulips were in bloom and many of the flowering trees and shrubs were in full bloom as well. The 1st day I visited parked across the street (ample parking) at the Olympic center. Visited early morning and walked across the street. Some work... more

Best day out in Montreal - so much to see and do. We loved the Japanese Tea Party and Japanese Gardens. The exhibition greenhouses were fascinating and extensive. Loved the Flower Power car. more
