Visiting Lyon
Built upon ancient Roman grounds on the confluence of the Rhône and Saône Rivers, Lyon is some 20,000 years old. It came to prominence during the Renaissance for its central role in the silk trade, and now its old town, Vieux Lyon, is one of the country’s most impressive UNESCO World Heritage Sites. However, the entire city is a puzzle of architectural wonders with the Roman Théâtre Antique de Fourvière sitting directly next to the dazzling white 19th century Basilica Notre-Dame de Fourvière, which proudly overlooks the city. Lyon also draws people in from around the world because of its famous Lyonnaise cuisine, which has earned the city France’s culinary capital status.
