Højdepunkter

Discover the most beautiful monuments of the capital of Gaul in its heyday: Roman theatre and odeon. Imagine everyday Gallo-Roman life as you discover remains infused into the city. Check-out from the Fourvière Basilica, discover the location of the forum, the nerve centre of the city. Then we will immerse you in Gallo-Roman entertainment by discovering the magnificent theater, the odeon and the streets full of life near them. During a walk on the heights offering a splendid view of the city, daily life is revealed by the remains scattered along the streets: aqueducts, thermal baths and fountain tell you more about the importance of water while the mausoleums arranged by the roads and the remains of the church Saint-Just built since the 5th century allow us to evoke the Roman religion and the relationship to death. The tour ends at the Minimes funicular - Roman Theatre.

About Lyon

Lyon, where the Rhône and Saône meet, is a Roman and Renaissance city of covered passageways, long called the capital of French cooking.

Lyon spreads across two rivers and two hills. On Fourvière hill, the white basilica looks down over the Roman theatres of Lugdunum, once the capital of Gaul, while the Renaissance old town below has narrow streets and covered passageways, the traboules, that silk workers used to carry cloth. The old town and the slopes of Croix-Rousse, the silk weavers' hill, are part of the UNESCO-listed historic site.

Top-ranked sights in Lyon: Old Lyon (Vieux Lyon), Traboules of Lyon, Lyon Cathedral (Cathédrale St-Jean).
