Laval: places that comfort

Certain places and experiences in Laval possess a unique magic: they envelop, comfort and leave a lasting impression. Here are a few addresses where you can let yourself be pampered by beauty, sweetness and flavor.

Let yourself be embraced (or embraced) by the arts

To let yourself be embraced by the arts is to enter spaces where you can forget everything and lose yourself in music, colors and stories. Salle Alfred-Pellan, at the Maison des arts de Lavaloffers a unique interlude where contemporary art stirs and awakens the senses away from reality. You'll find yourself transported by exhibitions that play with your perceptions and invite you to explore unexpected worlds. As for the Théâtre Marcellin-Champagnatwith its diversified program, offers plays that invite reflection and emotions. And finally, we have the Salle André-Mathieu a kind of sanctuary where humor and music of all kinds meet on stage.

Let yourself be lulled by time

When you want to let yourself be lulled by the passage of time, Laval's historic districts are the perfect hideaways where history and the charm of yesteryear cohabit: Vieux-Sainte-Rose, Vieux-Saint-Vincent-de-Paul, Vieux-Saint-Martin and Vieux-Sainte-Dorothée tell the story of a bygone era and dazzle with architecture straight out of a time machine. This is also where you'll find churches whose stained-glass windows and design leave you speechless. Places of worship, yes, but also places to visit for what they have to say about our past.

Let yourself be comforted by pasta

Winter and the cold can be beaten by many things, such as friendship, outdoor activities and chocolate, but there's also pasta. Yes, a good plate of pasta in good company is comforting! In Laval, there's no shortage of places to enjoy pasta, but we've picked out three that really stand out: Ravioli au Mozzarella fumé, pesto, poivron rouge et feta du Vertigo and the Penne Alla Gigi from l'Industria pizzeria + bar and the pink Tagliatelle Formaggia from Gatto Matto.
