Views of singular beauty may be enjoyed from Dufferin Terrace and other points in Quebec. The Falls of Montmorenci may be seen eight miles below the city—unquestionably the most beautiful falls in America. From this port enormous quantities of lumber and timber are shipped every season to Great Britain and other countries.

Montreal lies outspread between the river and the towering heights of "Mount Royal." From this "mountain" behind the city the tourist may enjoy one of the finest views imaginable. At his feet, on the flanks of the hill, are stately palaces, the residences of the merchant princes of Montreal. The fair city extends for miles before him. In the distance he sees the spreading river spanned by Victoria Bridge, over two miles in length. A few miles above is the airy modern structure of the Lachine Bridge, which also spans the river. The foreground is occupied by churches, colleges, convents, the tall chimneys of factories and grain elevators, long streets of handsome dwellings, quays and wharfs crowded with steamers, railway trains and canal boats bringing from the west the products of the wheat-fields of Manitoba and Ontario, huge warehouses filled with merchandise for whole provinces.
