The twin clamshell towers, with a flying saucer-style structure between them at the bottom, are unmistakable. Free tours are given frequently, Monday to Friday. The square out the front is a meeting place and the location for concerts, demonstrations and office-worker lunches.

And for visitors unfamiliar with the game, enough background and history is presented to perhaps help explain Canadians passion for this, the fastest of sports. Included is hockey’s biggest prize-the Stanley Cup (or a replica), a re-creation of the Montreal Canadians’ dressing room and all manner of interactive exhibits and activities. Admission is $10 for adults, less for seniors and kids. It’s open every day, with extended evening hours on Friday in summer. Enjoy about Canada hall of fame.

This is a 98-room medieval-style castle-cum-mansion built between 1911 and 1914 by sir Henry Pellat, a very wealthy and evidently eccentric man. The mansion has been a tourist site since 1937, when the cost of upkeep became too much for its owner. The interior is sumptuous, built with the finest materials imported from around the world. Note especially the conservatory. Pellat even brought in stonemasons from Scotland to build the walls around the estate.

In summer, the 2.5 hectares of restored gardens behind the castle are worth a visit in themselves. This area is open to the public (without the need to buy a ticket to the castle) on the first Monday of each month and every Tuesday form 4 pm to dusk.
