| Lyon Overview |
| Named a World Heritage Site in 1998 this amazing city is friendlier than Paris, older than Paris, has better chefs than Paris, and as such, is the culinary capital of France, where food is served with pride and courtesy. Apart from its joyous celebration of food, Lyon has much to offer the visitor, part of which are the 16th century townhouses with intricate and highly decorative facades and their beautiful courtyards, that hark back to a time of great prosperity when silkworms, banking, and books made the city an economic power. |
| Lyon Essentials |
Vieux Lyon Narrow tree-lined streets wind past cafes and old Medieval and Renaissance houses where the elite have lived for the past 400 years.
Cathedrale St-Jean Towering columns and exquisite stained glass windows of every brilliant hue and colour make a beautiful reminder of the elegance of times past.
Basilique Notre-Dame de Fourviere Built when the city of Lyons was spared during the Franco-Prussian war this ornate basilica is extravagantly gorgeous inside and out.
Musee Gallo-Romain Pottery, statuary, jewellery and so much more make up the fantastic collections of this excellent museum, and happily, all artefacts have English labels.
Nightlife Fast, furious and funky, Lyons night-crawlers have much to celebrate. Nightclubs abound, as do riverboat dance clubs, pubs and bars.
