It was just so breath taking and soothing to be in there. The many candles lite made for great photos and the ceiling: the colors, details - was all so stunning.

Happened to get there mid-afternoon when Good Friday Mass was starting. People were friendly, and the church was packed. It has wonderful lighting that makes the altar look spectacular. Didn't make it back for the night-time light show, but it looks like it would be amazing.

Better inside than outside. Old fashioned smell of polish and incense. Incredibly ornate altar and a pulpit the - like of which I have never seen before. The steps looked to be part of a roller coaster rather than the usual spiral

Beautiful church with lots of history. A must see in Old Montreal. They have tours and a light show at night for an extra charge. Do it.

Amazingly Beautiful. The light show at night is amazing. Def suggest taking a tour of this place. Can go and see day and night either is still great. Be careful on the weekends, in case of weddings they close a portion off.

It's like a Disneyland version of a Catholic church -- worth going just for that reason. The tour added quite a bit of color to it, so do that too. Centrally located so you can take it all in in under an hour and go on to the rest of your tour.

Having been to Rome and other magnificent places I almost walked by Notre-Dame but I'm really glad I didn't. It's breathtaking when you walk in - beautiful lights and colors make this Basilica unforgettable. An absolute must for every Montreal visitor.

Beautiful basilica. Very European. Enjoyed learning about history of Montreal, and the influence of missionaries in the early days. It's a must-see in Montreal.

very impressive architecture and painted glass. This basilica is definitely worth a peep. located close to the old port (5 minutes walk) it is worth a stop especially if you are a photographer. The Basillica features not just impressive painted glass but also a huge and very impressive organ.
