Commence your journey atop Fourvière Hill, west of the city's historic core, where a breathtaking panorama of Lyon unfolds.

For epicureans, Lyon is a haven. Dining choices span from corner boulangeries, filling the air with the aroma of fresh bread and pastries, to upscale, white-linen establishments known for culinary excellence. Lyon proudly claims its association with renowned Nouvelle Cuisine chef Paul Bocuse, who introduced the world to this culinary movement. However, the Lyonnais take pride in asserting that whatever you savor in Lyon, wherever you dine, is bound to be exceptional.

In 1998, Lyon earned UNESCO World Heritage Site status, a well-deserved recognition for a city with a history spanning over two millennia and featuring exemplary Roman, medieval, and modern architecture.

From the remarkably preserved Roman Amphitheatre to the charming cobblestone lanes of Vieux Lyon and the expansive Place Bellecour, one of Europe's largest open squares, Lyon presents sightseers with ample opportunities to embrace its historical charm.
