Why Visit Lyon ?
Your Ultimate Guide
Lyon is where Roman roads meet bouchon tables, where silk weavers once shaped fashion and revolutionaries challenged the world. It’s a city of quiet confidence, full of passageways (traboules), UNESCO neighborhoods, and world-renowned chefs. Its size is perfect for groups – not overwhelming, yet endlessly rich.
