Montréal - Olympic Park Parc Olympic

 
Montreal's Olympic Park, to the east, was the site of the 1976 Summer Olympics.

The Olympic Stadium, at its center, holds between 60,000 and 80,000 spectators and is nowadays used for baseball, festivals, fairs and shows. Looking like a great seashell, the bowl can be covered over against the elements by a roof attached by cables to the mast looming above it.

Must-see attractions nearby:
A platform at the top of the mast reached by a lift affords a magnificent view, in fine weather, over the city and its surroundings.

The Olympic Stadium, one of the most visited sports arenas in North America, is the home of Montréal's famous baseball team, the "Montréal Expos".
