Floralies Gardens
Set in the heart of Île Notre-Dame and surrounded by lagoons, the Floralies Gardens is the perfect spot to discover the marvels of nature.
A legacy of the 1980 Floralies internationales de Montréal, an international horticultural exhibition in which more than 20 countries participated, the Gardens bring together thousands of flowers and arrays of trees and shrubs. There is also a tree that was planted by René-Lévesque, the premier of the province of Québec at the time.
The Gardens offer a wealth of green spaces for a walk with your pet, a picnic amid the flowers, a bike ride on the trails, watching or photographing birds, reading a book under a shade tree or reflecting on the public arts works and the mosaïcultures spread throughout the gardens.
It's a quiet, accessible and special place to unwind and get your fill of vitamin Nature.
