Lyon (Noémie B.)

In Lyon, there are so many things to do and to see. Indead there are many neighbourhood which have their own story. For example "Fourvière" and "the old Lyon". In "Fourvière" we can see the basilica which is very beautiful and quiet. In "the old Lyon" we can find the "Traboules" which are a speciality from Lyon and do not exist in an other city. A "Traboule" is the way between 2 streets under houses and buildings.
Lyon is an attractive city for tourists but for its habitants too. The "place Bellecour" and "la Part- Dieu" are very popular. A lot of people come every days for shopping or other things..."Place Bellecour" is the main street of the city and some street far there is the opera which is great to see. And "la Part Dieu" is a famous mall where there are various things to do.
"La Croix Rousse" is an old neighbourhood too. It is a hill in the town.
The park of "la Tête d'or" is perfect when the weather is sunny and warm. There are a lot of animals, and walkers can do bike and diverse other things...
There are a lot of public transport in this town so it is easy to go where we want.
There are some museum as the museum "Gallo-romain" or the museum "Gadagne". They both talk about the story of Lyon. The first deals with Lyon in the antiquity and the second deals with Lyon in an other time.
