A giant crane in a supermarket, a portrait of Mussolini in Little Italy, Canada's only Caodaist temple, a monument to the world's strongest man, wrestling in a church, surfing on the Saint Lawrence River, a giant milk bottle, a gas station built by famous architect Mies van der Rohe... and much more. Far from the crowds and the usual cliches, Montreal only reveals its hidden treasures to residents and visitors who venture off the beaten track. An indispensable guide for those who thought they knew Montreal well or for those wishing to discover another facet of the city.
