Notre Dame Basilica

Unfortunately, the building was under renovation, so some parts were closed off. Still, the atmosphere and architecture were absolutely stunning. The colorful stained glass, high ceilings, and intricate details were truly impressive. Without the renovation, it would have been an even more breathtaking visual experience. Just sitting quietly and taking in the surroundings was peaceful and inspiring. In my opinion, anyone visiting Montreal should definitely see this place — it’s one of the most special spots in the city.

Dame Basilica is one of the most beautiful places I visited in Montreal. It’s a stunning church with incredible architecture colorful lights, detailed woodwork, and a deep blue ceiling filled with golden stars. The inside is peaceful and absolutely breathtaking. It was my first time seeing a church like this, and I was amazed by the beauty and calm atmosphere. There’s also a special light and sound show called AURA in the evening. Tickets are required for both the regular visit and the AURA show, and you can book them online or at the entrance. Tip:Go early to avoid crowds and take your time exploring. Definitely a must-visit spot in Montreal.

This review is strictly based on the outside experience as I did not go inside nor watch the show Aura recently. I did watch Aura a few years back and thought it was pretty entertaining. You should buy tickets to the show beforehand to avoid being disappointed. Notre Dame is a very famous church, both for its history, and architecture. Unfortunately, the church was under renovations the times I've visited. You can still go inside, but the scaffolding takes a bit away from the experience. It's certainly still very much worth paying a visit to! The plaza around the church is also worthwhile as there are statues and historical buildings to take in.

The Notre-Dame Basilica of Montreal is an architectural and spiritual masterpiece located in the heart of Old Montreal. Stepping inside feels like entering a sacred palace—the stunning Gothic Revival style, intricate wood carvings, and vibrant stained glass windows immediately captivate visitors. The interior is richly decorated, especially the altar, which glows with deep blues and golds. The ceiling painted with golden stars against a deep blue sky adds a celestial feel. The light and color inside the basilica create a serene, almost magical atmosphere.

It is very interesting to look with the light show, which is held in the evening every day. It makes no sense to buy a ticket separately, since there is time after the show, you can see and walk everywhere. With a show, you can’t shoot photos and videos, which is sad. It's very beautiful.Entrance up to 5 years free
