Walk around the city on foot
Begin at the Parc de la tête d’or, Lyon’s biggest park. Covering 117 hectares of land, explore the greenery on foot. When you need a break, take a rest at the lake inside the park. Afterwards, stop by Vieux Lyon, the renaissance district of the city, a UNESCO world heritage site. While on your walk, don’t forget to look up! There are murals, art and various exhibitions everywhere: look out for ‘la fresque des Lyonnais’ an 800m2 mural of notable people from Lyon’s history.
Lyon: A city with history
In the Vieux Lyon, venture into the ‘Traboules’, renaissance era pedestrian passageways that connect the city. Take a funicular to the Basilique Notre-Dame de Fourvière, a 19th century cathedral on top of a hill. Visit the Théâtre antique de Fourvière, remains of a Roman amphitheatre constructed in the year 1 B.C, which today are the site for the Nuits de Fourvière music festival. Continue your day trip with a visit to the Musée des beaux-arts de Lyon, the home of over 6 centuries of art.
