Mount Royal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Mount Royal (French: Mont Royal) (45°30′23″N, 73°35′20″W) is a mountain on the Island of Montreal, immediately north of downtown Montreal, Quebec, Canada, the city to which it gave its name. |
 | | The park is also home to the CBC's Mount Royal transmitter facility, which comprises two large buildings (one used primarily by the CBC and one used by the private television stations) and a very short (about 100 m) candelabra tower, from which nearly all of Montreal's television and FM radio stations broadcast. |
 | | Mount Royal hosts a unique activity in summer time known as the "Sunday Tam-Tams", whereby hundreds, or if the weather is nice, thousands of Montrealers and visitors play tam-tams (a type of hand drum) on the east slope of the mountain, around the monument to Sir George-Étienne Cartier. |
