Overview of your Montreal tour:

During the Renaissance, Portuguese explorers contributed to drawing the world map. That same spirit of adventure may be what brought a few hundred men to Canada to find work in the early 1950s, eventually leading them to the workshops and textile mills lining St-Laurent Blvd. on Plateau Mont-Royal. You'll see the house where Leonard Cohen lived across from Portugal Park, visit a grocery store offering hundreds of Portuguese products, discover the Santa Cruz church and community centre with its "azulejos", commemorative black granite benches, and so much more. Come see and taste what this vibrant community has brought to the city they embraced with so much affection.
