Lyon, a place like nowhere else!

Find out how to get to Lyon and enjoy your stay in one of the most beautiful cities in France.

The capital of gastronomy

Today, it is known as the capital of gastronomy and a major European metropolis. Its cultural life is extremely rich. Lyon is also the city of the small unusual passages, the traboules, which one crosses to discover the city. Five hundred hectares of the city are listed as Unesco World Heritage.

Lyon has also known how to renew itself, by giving green back to pedestrians and cyclists and by letting street art express itself in the streets of Croix-Rousse.

We wish you a warm welcome!
