  4. Lyon
Two thousand years of history shaped France’s third-largest city: Lyon, at the confluence of two rivers, surrounding the waterways with Roman ruins and Renaissance architecture. This southern city lures you in with a legendary food scene set in Michelin-starred restaurants and traditional bouchons. Walk off memorable meals along the riverside promenade or through cobbled alleyways and chic districts.

Fun Fact

Yes, Lyon was once an important Roman capital called Lugdunum and a centre for the French Resistance during WWII, but it also played a starring role in the invention of cinema! This is where the Lumière brothers shot their first film, Workers Leave the Lumière Factory, on a street now named Rue du Premier Film. Visit the Institut Lumière for more info on the city’s cinematic legacy!
