Cimetière Mont-Royal
Cimetière Mont-Royal Review
If you find yourself humming Getting to Know You as you explore Mont-Royal Cemetery's 165 acres, blame it on the graveyard's most famous permanent guest, Anna Leonowens (1834-1915). She was the real-life model for the heroine of the musical The King and I. The cemetery—established in 1852 by the Anglican, Presbyterian, Unitarian, and Baptist churches—is laid out like a terraced garden, with footpaths that meander between crab-apple trees and past Japanese lilacs. You can also enter the cemetery through a gate in Parc du Mont-Royal, but it's only open 9-4.
