Lyon is one of the greatest choices to visit in France. This charming city is still not nearly as touristy as Paris, despite its rich heritage. As a result, it is less crowded and less expensive and still feels very authentic. The majority of things to see and do in Lyon revolve around the city’s magnificent Romanesque, medieval, and Renaissance architecture. The atmospheric neighborhoods found along the Rhône and Saône Rivers reflect the city’s rich heritage. The Quartier Saint-Jean and Colline Croix-Rousse districts have an enchanting Old World character, while the Presqu’ile exemplifies 19th-century elegance. The cobbled streets, historic neighborhoods, stunning promenades, Italianate courtyards, and a maze of hidden passageways are fascinating for exploring as well as amazing spots for a photo shoot.
