Flanked by two hills – Fourvière and Croix-Rousse – the city of Lyon lies proudly between Paris and Marseille, but its cultural significance is greater than the average of the two. Considered by many to be the real capital of French food, visitors can enjoy traditional Lyonnais favourites as well as the classics reinvented by a new wave of contemporary chefs.
The Gateway to the Alps and Geneva reveals surprises past the notable influence of gastronomic delights, beginning with Tête d'Or Park which is situated directly opposite Warwick Reine Astrid-Lyon. Roman ruins, Renaissance-era architecture, abundant art spaces, cutting-edge design and renovated riverfronts satisfy a variety of appetites on Lyon vacations in this UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Parc de la Tête d'Or is a peaceful oasis offering jogging paths, shaded cycling routes, botanical gardens, tropical greenhouses, and a free zoo for all ages.
Discover Vieux Lyon, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where cobbled streets, colourful Renaissance houses, and Europe's unique traboules—secret passageways—create an enchanting historic district at the foot of Fourvière Hill.
Designed by Renzo Piano, the Museum of Contemporary Art of Lyon (MAC Lyon) showcases ever-evolving exhibitions from renowned and emerging artists.
