Le Plateau-Mont-Royal (Rue Saint-Denis and the side streets)
This is where you see the real Montreal, not the tourist Montreal. The Plateau's residential streets — three-storey triplexes with the city's signature curling exterior staircases, painted façades, leafy blocks — are the look that makes Montreal Montreal. Walk Saint-Denis and the side streets around Square Saint-Louis, café-hop, and watch how the city actually lives. Free and the most charming walk in town.
The colourful residential heart of the city — triplexes with curling outdoor staircases, leafy streets, cafés, and the famous Montreal look.
