[REVIEW] Virtualtourist.com Lyon TANGUY


Lyon is situated in the southeast of France, in the Rhône-Alpes region. You will be surprised by the numerous things to do there.


Culture


There are several museums telling about the city's history since antiquity : the most famous are Gadagne Museum and Fourvière's Gallo-Roman Museum (which is located in the oldest part of Lyon).


Shopping


There are obviously many places where you can do shopping ! The best example is La Part-Dieu which is a huge mall with restaurants and cinemas, but it is sometimes very expensive, so you have to plan and save a lot of money beforehand!! :)


Transports


If you want to join Lyon from another town, you have to take one of the 4 underground lines. Then, you can travel in Lyon by bus, tram or even funicular.


There are also free bicycles to get the people aware of environment and they are available in many areas. The annual cost is about 10€. These means of transport are called "Velo've".






But if you really want to take advantage of the city, you can simply walk ;)
