Montreal-A Great Winter Destination

I know, I know...when you think of winter destinations you probably imagine warm Caribbean water that is just as clear and blue as anything you've ever seen. Even though Montreal averages temperatures that tend to be below freezing during the month of February, it's a great winter escape for one reason-the underground pedestrian network. According to the official tourist agency, Montreal has 33 kilometers of passageways that snake around the downtown area and it's all underground. It's a hub for the subway, bus and train system and full of world class restaurants, shops and entertainment. So while everyone is paying premium prices to head south for the winter, look for bargains in our neighbor to the north.
