Unless you've been living under a rock or perhaps in a vault you've probably got Fallout fever. And that's something RadAway can't fix. The new Amazon Prime show, based on a popular video game series that mixes dystopian dread with dark humour, has fans glued to their screens. But if you’ve already binged it and are now roaming your apartment like a ghoul in search of a fix, Montreal’s ready with its own real-world spin-off.
Beyond the celebrated Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and the sprawling Biodome, there's a world less explored. A museum dedicated entirely to railway artifacts, a niche sanctuary chronicling Montreal's banking history, and a haven of optical illusions. You can bypass the crowds at the Old Port and sidestep the downtown buzz, and, instead, venture into the heart of Montreal where unassuming museums stand as sentinels to tales untold, artifacts unsung, and art pieces that remain delightfully undiscovered. Within these walls, Montreal's quieter stories come to life. You'll encounter fascinating medical oddities and step into the world of a legendary strongman from the past. Here are a few highlights.
