MONCTON

Rich in culture, and bustling with activity, Moncton's terrific mix of excitement and natural wonders dazzle visitors all year long. The "Bore" is a river-wide wave from several inches to two feet high. Twice every day according to the mighty Fundy tides, it rushes down the Petitcodiac River heralding the high tide, right past downtown. And then there's Magnetic Hill. Sitting at the bottom of this hill, with your car in neutral, you'll have the sensation of going uphill (as if being pulled by a magnet) and backwards at that.

 The bustling, bicultural character of Moncton guarantees that there's always something going on, especially on the cultural scene. Known as the modern heartland of Acadia, Moncton's restaurants, fairs, festivals and music celebrate New Brunswick's French culture. The best in Canadian song and dance can be enjoyed at the restored historic Capitol Theatre.
