Lyon in one day? It's easy. We start at the Museum of Confluence, where Ron and Sona collect the best views. Nearby — HEAT Lyon: Grab a coffee and something crispy, there are many pleasant steps ahead. Along the promenade we head to Old Lyon: the Cathedral of Saint-Jean and the Museum of Cinema and Miniatures lead into the world of stone alleys and secret troughs. The steep climb to the Garden of Curiosities is rewarded with a panoramic view, and in a few minutes the Gallo-Roman Theatre and the majestic Basilica of Notre Dame de Furvier are within a few minutes. Take a look at Le Café de Fourvière: the coffee with the view here is special.
We go down to the Terro Square with the Museum of Fine Arts and the Lyon Opera, then to the legendary murals: the frescoes of the Lions and the Walls of the Sinks. Do you want silence and wonder? Rose Mir Garden is just that. Finish — Parc Tet d'Or: a lake, greenhouses and a revitalizing walk.
Interesting to know: in Lyon, the Lumière brothers made one of the first films in the world. And the city is considered the gastronomic capital of France - so feel free to test bouchons or ice cream in Carmelo. In one day, Lyon manages to fall sincerely in love.
