Colline de Fourviere

This hill was the location of Lyon's original Roman settlement and still is home to ancient ruins from that era.

Reviewed By Andrew081 - St. Albans, United Kingdom

Fourviere Hill famous for its firework display and processions during the festival of light (every December) is home to Tour Métallique de Fourvière (mini Eiffel tower), the ornate Basilique Notre Dame de Fourvière (Cathedral) and the amazing remains of the Théâtre Gallo Romain (Roman Theatre) where open-air events are still held. Best reached by one of the two funicular railways from Vieux Lyon – railway cost is one standard metro/bus ticket (€1.90).

I love old churches. The stained glass , astronomical clock, and the statue of Christ by the altar are all worthy of a stop on your meandering walk through Lyon.

Theatres Romains de Fourviere

A remnant from the era of dominance of the Roman Empire, the ruins of these two amphitheaters are over 2,000 years old.

Reviewed By Jimlockard - Lyon, France

Up on Fourviere Hill, accessible by funicular, you will find the ruins of a large Roman theater and a smaller adjacent meeting place in what was a large Roman settlement in the first Century. Both are now used for concerts in the summer. Easy to explore (but no disabled access to the sites). There is also a museum nearby. Worth visiting, great view, come to a concert if you can.

Mur des Canuts

Reviewed By 750dimitrisl - Sydney, Australia

There are several areas in Lyon with huge wall paintings or murals. And they are all fantastic. We managed to see a few, although we had to walk around quite a bit. Le Mur Des Canuts is one such mural and it is painted on a huge wall. It was created in 1987. It represents a day in the life of silk workers who worked in the neighbourhood and who had taken protest action against their poor working conditions in the 1800s. Apparently the mural is updated every now and then. This is a great piece of art and is really part of the local area and its culture and traditions.

Parc de la Tete d'Or

Come enjoy a moment of relaxation in family in a wooded and natural setting. A double course of 18 tracks awaits you. Young and old alike will share an unforgettable moment on the playful and amazing trails of mini-golf. Both children and parents will find happiness. A little introduction to the practice of mini-golf will be provided if you wish.

Reviewed By Jimlockard - Lyon, France

Parc de la Tete d'Or is about ten blocks from our new flat in Lyon. It is a huge park with a large lake, lots of trails for walking and jogging, playgrounds, a zoo, and an excellent botanical garden. It is the "Central Park" of Lyon, even though it is in the northeastern edge of the city. A great gathering place and lots to explore. Very safe.
