Lyon Tourism
Lyon does not give anyone time to get bored : one of the most beautiful cities in France is not lacking in activities to do and treasures to discover.
It is difficult to be disappointed by Lyon as the city is beautiful, dynamic, lively and wealthy from all perspectives. Whether cultural, historic or architectural, there is everything here to charm and enrich you. Located between Saône and Rhône, the city is none other than one of the most important metropoles in France as well as Europe. UNESCO, incidentally, inscribed 500 hectares of the city as World Heritage, and it is far from being by chance. The façades of the Croix Rousse and Vieux Lyon notably have a pleasant aspect and give the city a unique atmosphere.
There is no lack of places to explore and visit here, and some of them are unmissable. This is particularly the case for the Colline de Fourvière, for the basilica and the view it boasts of the esplanade. Do not miss out on a stroll through the Parc de la Tête d’Or, which is in some ways the city’s green lung. You can enjoy discovering its botanic garden, its rose garden, greenhouses and zoo. Among the unmissable sites, there is of course the Place Bellcour, which is not only one of the largest squares in France, but the biggest pedestrian square in Europe. You will suddenly cross paths with the statue of Louis XIV. A visit to Vieux Lyon is vital : this has the second largest Renaissance neighbourhood in Europe, and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
