Montreal's Underground City is cool. Checking it out is a great way to explore while staying sheltered from the weather. There are plenty of shops, food places, and connections to metro stations, making it both convenient and interesting to wander around.nnThere are also random historic pieces of art which I found pretty cool & unique.n#hiddenGem
Head toward the Eaton Center or Montreal Trust for shopping and the Place Ville Marie for food. The network is massive and there’s no shortage of options in any category. The RESO also connects some of the cities key attractions or hubs such as the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Grand Central Station, and more.
So much to do and see without crossing streets! Because the system is enormous, plan your exploration. The nicest shopping building is the central core, get a map online and the metro can take you there. If you want all the leading shops such as Boss, Zara, H&M, Old Navy and such, they are there. The underground has good signage in some sections but not so evident how it flows. I followed the locals to get exits near Place de Armes. Overall impressive and fabulous if bad weather.
Took the kids down to the Underground City on a rainy Saturday afternoon a couple weeks ago and it was such an easy win, no coats needed once we got underground. My youngest was thrilled we could walk from the metro straight into the food court and grab poutine without ever stepping outside. The staff at the info desk were super patient helping us figure out which tunnels connected to which mall, since the layout can get confusing with two kids tugging at you. It's basically an entire city under the city, and for a quick couple of hours keeping everyone warm, fed, and entertained, it delivers every time.
Visited Montréal Underground RESO to see why it is so different from Toronto’s PATH network. RESO is more decorated as compared to the PATH. We went to the Underground Shopping mall close to the closing hours, as it would less rush. Surprisingly it was kind of empty as you can see in the pictures. Very neat pedestrian pathway. From Eaton Centre mall to the Gare Centrale we walked by following the signage instructions. Close to the Centrale station, I felt RESO pathway more charming and cozy feeling. We sat there for few minutes as we were very much tired walking and exploring the underground network of Downtown Montréal. However there are a lot to explore, next time for sure will continue to find new places.
