Hôtel de ville de Montréal

I particularly remember visiting Montreal in 2022. I appreciated the ease of getting around the city without relying on a vehicle. It was relatively easy to access transit, and to get many places by foot. I really loved that many streets in the downtown were cycling/walking friendly, with several even being closed off to vehicles completely. The street was also activated with various cafes. Patios, street vendors, events, and more. While we didn’t cycle when there, it was clear that many people did, and that was often supported with separated and protected cycle lanes."
