Located 50 km (31 mi) southeast of Montreal
on the shores of the Richelieu River, the current incarnation of Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu
was created in 2001 when the neighbouring municipalities of Saint-Luc, Iberville,
Saint-Athanase, L'Acadie and Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu were amalgamated into one
city. Situated in an area rich with fertile soil, agrotourism is one of the region's
biggest draws, boasting orchards and cider-houses, vineyards and wineries, maple
sugar shacks and more. Visit the Colours
of the Countryside Museum to learn more about the local agricultural history
or try the Canadian
Institute of Conservation to view artifacts, photos and exhibits on the region's
First Nations, military and domestic heritage. Kids will love getting lost in
Le
Labyrinthe, a massive 100,000 sq m (1,076,400 sq ft) cornfield maze, while
the entire family can join thousands of locals and visitors to marvel at the spectacle
created when hundreds of colourful hot air balloons take flight during the International
des Montgolfières festival. Golfers will be delighted with the city's many
golf courses including the Club
de Golf de la Vallée des Forts.
