The Montreal Botanical Garden is the second largest botanical garden in the world. Its gardens feature more than 26,000 types of plants, ranging from general gardens to theme gardens. You'll find authentic Chinese and Japanese gardens among the various gardens on the grounds. Also on the grounds is an Insectarium. You can easily spend a couple hours to all day at the garden.

I have tavelled the world to sample local beers: Siberia/Russia/Mongolia/China/Tibet/Middle-and-Far East/South America/Pacific/Europe. Good beers or at lease acceptable beer is to found everywhere (but avoid that found in Calcutta which tastes like the Hooghly River - just downstream from the ghats where bodies are burned. Canada? Ya good beer and Moloson X has preceeded many a fine evening. But the best beer in the world? Russia - of all places - and the beer is called Baltika (comes in nine strengths) and is available wherever you find foreign beers marketed.
