The city is right across the Quebec border and a great place for a weekend getaway from Montreal. Visit MTLBlog for more headlines. Right outside of Quebec sits a small city that just so happens to be the background to a lot of Hallmark and Netflix Christmas movies. If I'm being completely honest, I hate the winter. It's cold, I constantly find myself slipping on patches of ice, and my cute outfits are always covered by a big winter jacket. However, the one thing even I can admit about the winters in Eastern Canada is its incredible romance. This city in Ontario called North Bay, which is right across the Quebec border, is where a lot of the cheesy yet addictive Hallmark Christmas movies are filmed. So, this year, instead of sitting inside, watching one of the films on your couch, why not go out and take this cinematic scenery in for yourself?Some of the most loved Hallmark originals like Christmas in Love, Christmas With Tucker, Christmas In Angel Falls, The Holiday Calendar, and A Song For Christmas have been filmed in the small and charming city, and once you lay your eyes on it, you'll know exactly why it's such a film destination. Although Hallmark movies make up perhaps the majority of Christmas cliché films, other, non-Hallmark films also made use of North Bay. The Christmas Inheritance and Love On Ice both have scenes that were filmed in this quaint city.North Bay not only makes for a picture-perfect movie setting but also a pretty romantic weekend with the one you love. According to the municipal website, the city is a wintertime sports destination with a "vibrant" downtown that "offers one of a kind shops, restaurants, and cafés."
