Housed in the old Olympic velodrome, the Montreal Biodome is home to recreations of four different ecosystems found throughout North and South America: Amazonian rainforest, Laurentian forest, St Lawrence river, and Polar. The ecosystems are done very well, with the transitions between them fairly striking. Whilst it would always be nice to see more animals, those that you do see are enough of a treat. A highlight for me was watching the ducks dive in the St Lawrence ecosystems, from behind a huge glass wall - I'd never seen ducks do this and it was amazing. I'm not exactly sure what's stopping me from giving this 5 out of 5 - maybe the slightly cavernous and fairly uninspiring eateries on the site. However, I'd really recommend a trip, and as I remember it the tickets are good value.
