Dowtown in Montréal

I was in the Saint Joseph's Oratory, completed in 1934, and I loved that sentence.

Normally when you're catholic you have to stop in each step and pray until the top of the Oratory. We didn't have a lot of time, so I couldn't do it, but would like to do it...:(

It is a Roman Catholic basilica on the northern slope of Mount Royal. The basilica is dedicated to Saint Joseph, to whom Brother André credited all his reported miracles. These were mostly related to some kind of healing power, and many pilgrims (handicapped, blind, ill, etc.) poured into his Basilica, including numerous Protestants. On display in the basilica is a wall covered with thousands of crutches from those who came to the basilica and were healed

After going to the blind restaurant called "O Noir" (you eat in dark) we jumped and walked into the Mont Royal Park and after one hour we found an amazing view of Montréal by night...In this pic we can't see it very well, but in real it's incredible!

It's the typical houses in Montréal. The bar, pubs, etc... are also like that.
