Frommer's, the renowned American travel guide series launched in 1957 by Arthur Frommer with his groundbreaking "Europe on $5 a Day," annually spotlights a must-visit destination. In 2017, Montreal earns the honor—just in time for the city's 375th anniversary celebrations, featuring over 175 events throughout the year.
At first glance, Montreal mirrors many North American hubs with highways hugging skyscrapers. Look closer, though, and vibrant, eclectic neighborhoods reveal themselves. Dive into Mile-End and Plateau streets for trendy bars and restaurants in the city's hip epicenter. Party in the Latin Quarter or Gay Village. Add flair with a stroll through Chinatown. Frommer's 175 recommendations include exploring the Underground City, winter ice skating, squirrel-spotting in Parc La Fontaine, and the charming Old Port with stunning St. Lawrence River views.
