Sunset MTL | Montreal Sunset From The Bike Path on the South Shore

Best Sunset Spot in Montreal (South Shore | Longueuil)

There are a lot of places to watch the sunset in Montreal. None like the view that you will see on the south shore of Montreal, as you will always have the Montreal Skyline and the Mont-Royal Mountain in the background as the sun is setting.

If you are visiting the city it is definitely a spot to consider, and it is amazing to take some photos from there.

Longueuil | Ville de Longueuil Photos | Spots and Areas in Old Longueuil

Ville de Longueuil or Longueuil is a small city located right of the Jacques Cartier Bridge.

Longueuil has a really nice area called old Longueuil, Le Vieux Longueuil it is a great spot for eating, dinning, and walking around.

What makes this place more exceptional for me, is that view that you can get of the city of Montreal from there.

It is the only place where you can see the Jacques Cartier Bridge with the City of Montreal in the back.

Here are some pictures from the old city of Longueuil and of the view of Montreal from Longueuil.

A hidden Gem in Montreal | A beautiful Hidden Park in Montreal

View of Downtown MTL From Parc de la Cité-du-Havre

Right in front of the Old Port of Montreal there is a park called Parc de la Cité-du-Havre. As close as this park may look to the old port, truth is that it is ride away, yet it is worth it, the 360 view of Montreal, the Jacques Cartier Bridge, and the Jean Drapeau Island; is priceless.

The bike ride or the wake to this island is worth it as it is a nice walk along the water, through the hidden bike paths of Montreal.

Here is where you can see this park on the map.

It is a 4.5 Km bike ride from the old port, and a almost a one hour walk.

Still definitely worth it.

Here are some pictures that will reflect the view that you will see from there.
