And Google Maps\u2019 public transportation directions make it even easier to get from A to B.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The metro uses simple colour-coded lines and, unlike more complex systems, it\u2019s one line per track, so as long as you\u2019ve got the right station and direction, there\u2019s no risk of hopping on the wrong train.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To figure out your direction, use the name of the end-of-the-line stop. For example, if you\u2019re starting at Bonaventure station on the orange line and want to get to Berri-UQAM station, you want direction \u201cMontmorency\u201d as that\u2019s the name of the terminal in that direction. If you\u2019re getting off at Berri-UQAM to switch over to the green line to head towards Pie-IX station, get off at Berri-UQAM and simply follow the green signs for \u201cHonor\u00e9-Beaugrand\u201d, as that\u2019s the terminal in the Pie-IX direction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re going to be in town for a few days, purchase one of the multi-day or weekly passes instead of individual tickets, as this can save you a lot of money in the long run.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><footer class=\"entry-footer\"><\/footer><\/article><\/div>\r\n\r\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_one_half-0aa7055fe62c3622faec82866afbaeb2\">\n.flex_column.av-av_one_half-0aa7055fe62c3622faec82866afbaeb2{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-av_one_half-0aa7055fe62c3622faec82866afbaeb2 av_one_half  avia-builder-el-22  el_after_av_one_half  el_before_av_hr  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-av_textblock-2de302bf1aa3cf4c9157dbe6f50ac7eb '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 658px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/cjZxlfPjmX\/\" data-instgrm-version=\"8\">\n<div style=\"padding: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background: #F8F8F8; line-height: 0; margin-top: 40px; padding: 50% 0; text-align: center; width: 100%;\">\n<div style=\"background: url(data:image\/png; base64,ivborw0kggoaaaansuheugaaacwaaaascamaaaapwqozaaaabgdbtueaalgpc\/xhbqaaaafzukdcak7ohokaaaamuexurczmzpf399fx1+bm5mzy9amaaadisurbvdjlvzxbesmgces5\/p8\/t9furvcrmu73jwlzosgsiizurcjo\/ad+eqjjb4hv8bft+idpqocx1wjosbfhh2xssxeiyn3uli\/6mnree07uiwjev8ueowds88ly97kqytlijkktuybbruayvh5wohixmpi5we58ek028czwyuqdlkpg1bkb4nnm+veanfhqn1k4+gpt6ugqcvu2h2ovuif\/gwufyy8owepdyzsa3avcqpvovvzzz2vtnn2wu8qzvjddeto90gsy9mvlqtgysy231mxry6i2ggqjrty0l8fxcxfcbbhwrsyyaaaaaelftksuqmcc); display: block; height: 44px; margin: 0 auto -44px; position: relative; top: -22px; width: 44px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\"><a style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/cjZxlfPjmX\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A post shared by T Riman | MontrealTips.com (@taou)<\/a> on <time style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px;\" datetime=\"2013-08-03T13:44:42+00:00\">Aug 3, 2013 at 6:44am PDT<\/time><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async defer src=\"\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div  class='hr av-av_hr-dcd2069817a0e3d34ae04cad8f3443c7 hr-default  avia-builder-el-24  el_after_av_one_half  el_before_av_one_half '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\r\n\r\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_one_half-6126cab7d8fab8d08143dd2dacdf673c\">\n.flex_column.av-av_one_half-6126cab7d8fab8d08143dd2dacdf673c{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-av_one_half-6126cab7d8fab8d08143dd2dacdf673c av_one_half  avia-builder-el-25  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_one_half  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><article  class='iconbox iconbox_top av-av_icon_box-ecfc465bbca8c9535038388c08b2c9cd  avia-builder-el-26  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  main_color'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class=\"iconbox_content\"><header class=\"entry-content-header\" aria-label=\"Icon: 4.

We weren\u2019t kidding. Food really is everything here. On top of the amazing restaurants, bars and cafes, Montreal also has the best bagels in the North America (sorry New York, but it\u2019s true).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Montreal bagels are dense with a large hole in the middle. A proper Montreal bagel is handmade, boiled in honey water and baked in a wood fire oven. The classic is the sesame bagel, but they come in everything from plain, to poppyseed, to pumpernickel, to onion and so much more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are two top contenders for official bagel of Montreal: <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.stviateurbagel.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">St. Viateur<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fairmountbagel.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fairmount<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Though the debate as to which is best rages (also good heartedly) on, what every Montrealer can agree on is that nothing beats a hot, fresh out of the oven bagel.
