... floor above his body).
The church St-Marie-Reine-du-Monde is also staggering - it claims to be a scale model of the inside of St. Peter's in Rome. I wouldn't be surprised, as it's huge and hugely ornate. Everything seems to either be carved or etched with some fresco.

Montreal, Quebec
Montreal, Quebec, Canada. If you didn't know where exactly you were you would more than likely think that you were in Europe. I’ve lucky enough to travel a little bit of Canada and I have not come across a city like this.
