Joliette and surroundings
Rich in discoveries
Joliette has never stopped growing. She knows how to bet on the future with a city center that houses terraces, a market of flavors, urban art and shops. It is also a public square, la Place Bourget, converted into placottoir, place of convergence or urban scene. Joliette is the abundance of culture and nature. Rich of several parks of inspiration, rich of a river and natural beaches, rich of a living historical inheritance ... rich of a sharp spirit!
