The church is located up the hill of Lyon city, the view is spectacular. You can see almost all the building in Lyon. Also the church and art are beautiful both in and out. It is not crowded by the time I visited. It is easy to get here by train. Recommended to come as it must be the bucket-list for Lyon city!

Very beautiful place. Just outside is the splendid view o of the city. Try to get the timing. Right so you can see the sun setting over the city. It’s really breathtaking.

Great view from this hill. Take F2 line up and enjoy the long downhill stroll through old town. Also check out the amphitheatre nearby before you head down.

The Basilica is beautiful inside and out, especially when seen up on the hill. The view looking out over Lyon is even better, you can see for miles and look down on all the other landmarks that you probably walked past on your way to this one. Stunning.

A beautiful piece of art. A great location to enjoy the view of city from the height. It is an equivalent of scare couer of Paris but maybe slightly better I feel. You can either walk uphill to this place, or can take a cable train or even a car since the place is well connected with roads.

Impressive cathedral overlooking Lyon from the top of the hill. Very particular architecture design. It is quite impressive from both outside and inside. The entrance is free and not much to wait to enter. You can visit both the cripta and the main church.

Mosaics, stained glass and paintings are more impressive than many places I have seen architecturally and artistically. The location is very good and you can see Lyon from a bird's eye view. We went on foot, I recommend everyone to go out by walking.

I think it is the most beautiful place of worship in Lyon and I think it is difficult to say otherwise. It is definitely a place that amazes externally and internally indeed and it can be seen from literally every corner of the city center of Lyon! It can be reached by funicular and from the hill you can enjoy a splendid view! Admission is free and it is possible to take photos.

A beautiful, ornate cathedral that I would highly recommend visiting for anyone who appreciates such places. It probably won't be quiet, as it's a big draw in the city, but it won't matter. And there is a great view from just outside the cathedral as well as a restaurant and café. Parking your bike isn't super easy, is my only criticism, as there doesn't seem to be any dedicated spaces for them. However, I was pretty easily able to put it somewhere.

Visiting this magnificent cathedral provides an opportunity to appreciate the exquisite beauty of architecture, transcending its purely religious significance. It is highly recommended to maintain a sense of decorum, refraining from raising your voice, and respecting the solemn atmosphere during Masses when exploring the cathedral. Upon concluding your visit, you can savor a splendid panoramic view of the city from the nearby lookout point and indulge in a delightful coffee and snack at the outdoor café in close proximity.

While spending the day in Lyon we saw this beautiful white church high on a hilltop. We found an old funicular (one of the only four in the world) to take us to the church. The ride was unique but sadly passed through tunnels without any views. Once we got out, we saw this beautiful church both inside and out. In the crypt area, they had an exhibit about the cloth of Turin. There are also spectacular views of Lyon at the backside of the church. Definitely worth the visit if you're in the area...

This is an amazing Notre Dame! One of the best I’ve seen in France. There’s a few way to reach it, there is a metro station stop directly in front, you can climb up the steep steps and the steep hike they Jardin de rosary (which we did) or you can drive up and park nearby. Highly recommended.

Very beautiful church. The priest passing by greeted my family and I sitting in the pews and struck up a conversation in my native language, my children loved it. It was a great heart warming welcome for the children as it was their first time in Europe and inside a church. A side note, as a visitor to any holy place, please be respectful, keep your voice down and control your children. Always make sure you are aloud to take pictures (never assume you are allowed to take pictures just because there are pictures online). While we were there there was was woman who thought that everyone in the church couldn't hear her.

Just had an incredible experience at the Notre-Dame Basilica Fourvière in Lyon! 🙌✨ The journey to reach this magnificent landmark was absolutely worth it. Climbing the steps up the hill, taking in the stunning views of the city along the way, and finally standing in awe of the basilica's beauty – it's a memory I'll cherish forever. Lyon, you never cease to amaze me! 😍🏰 #NotreDameBasilicaFourviere #LyonExploration #UnforgettableViews

An absolutely gorgeous place to visit with some incredible architecture. A great view of Lyon from above at the back of the basilica. It was quite busy when we visited in the middle of the day, so it was not the best time to appreciate everything in a peaceful atmosphere.

About 15 mins after you cross the bridge into Old Town. It’s a long upward ascent to the Basilica, but the view at the top makes it all worth it. The architecture is beautiful and the Priests were also very welcoming when we went inside. Recommended to visit.

This is quite simply one of the most beautiful cathedrals in the world. The Stained Glass windows are wonderful, especially around the altar. The mosaics around the knave are incredible. The views are spectacular. The external building is so well cared for.

One of the most spectacular places to visit in Lyon during the summer. You are able to see the city of Lyon from the terrace of basilica and in the middle of the summer this place can be quite crowded. If there is no clouds the view can be amazing as most buildings starts to reflect the sunlight, making a unique view. Inside the basilica is spectacular with French architecture is showing its best of times. Good place to pray as well if you are keen on doing so.

Absolutely beautiful with amazing views of the river and the city. The funiculaire was quite busy to go up, so I walked instead. The walk was moderately challenging with lots of steps. I took the funiculaire back down, and it was much less busy on the way down. There is so much to see at the Bassilica. Check out the crypt and the chapel for Mary, too. Beautiful

A beautiful cathedral overlooking the city of Lyon. The church is a functioning place of worship so please treat the area with utmost respect. The intricate details on ceilings and walls show how much the people cherish their religion. Downstairs there's a crypt that one can visit. Don't forget to go behind the church to see a beautiful panorama of Lyon. Best way to get here is to take the furnicular.

We walked through both floors and around the Basilica and it was very amazing. Tons of extremely impressive mosaics and lots of gold. A very amazing and dramatic view. They very well explain all the mosaics and art in the hall. The descriptions are only in French so make sure you either have your translating camera or someone to read the descriptions to you if you need as they are quite interesting. The lower floor was super unique showing different countries views on the church which isn’t super common it feels.

Magnificent basilica and not a castle as it looks from afar. Also spectacular view from the monument's terrasse. A view only beaten by Mont Martre towards Paris in my book so far. We had the pleasure to participate to the mess on Sunday and it is also breath taking as it is full of visitors participating in the singing.

Just stunning - the highlight of Lyon for sure. They call it 'the upside down elephant' because it resembles an elephant on its back and it's strangely apt. The inside is beautiful and FREE to enter which is nice. Also really enjoyed the innovative contactless votive candle payment system. Great gift shop across the street too. Just beware the very steep hill and stairs up to the Basilica - they're no joke!

This basilica is located in the most strategic point in Lyon to get a great view of the city. Just walk around the basilica to the other side of the plaza and you will see all of Lyon in front of you. You can see the two rivers, and all the areas up to the far mountains. For the basilica itself, I really liked the lion statue at the entrance, it's a great piece of art. The candle stands inside are so beautiful with all the colorful candle cups. I also liked the stained glass and paintings. I'll share some photos here.

A fabulous museum. I last visited in 1998 when it was miniatures only and the highlight was Bible verses on a grain of rice. Now it has a wonderful display of cinematic props and models, costumes, prosthetics, weapons and other artifacts. Wes Anderson has his own gallery. The miniature rooms on the top floor are simply amazing, both intricate and beautiful. Well worth a visit.

This is one of my favorite museums in France and is a great museum for a movie fan. You could spend a lot of time there without being bored. There are a lot of nice props, costumes, and film technologies, etc that are amazing. My favorite part of this museum is the miniature part. The miniatures are so incredible, and painstakingly created. I can visit and spend ages looking at all of them, and still not be bored at all. Dan Ohlmann and other artists have done a wonderful job, and I would like to thank them for creating such an amazing museum like this. I highly recommend visiting this museum when you are visiting Lyon.

Visited this place a little bit before closing and I had to fight myself to believe that it was miniature. The first floor is major film props like Harry Potter, but the top floor is the main standout, A collection of incredibly detailed miniature scenes that were meticulously built. You could be amazed at the skill for a very long time, next to nothing you've ever seen. All of the images of the sets are pressed to the window, no more than 15 cm.

I came to this museum because I had access to it with the Lyon City Card pass (super easy to use when visiting Lyon). I really enjoyed this museum; it had 4-5 floors with 8-9 different exhibits. It’s a nice tourist attraction for cinephile and families that enjoy looking at movie props. I spent probably 1h30 doing all the floors and could’ve spent much longer if I wasn’t on a tight schedule. There is lineup to get in here, but it wasn’t long (probably 15-20 mins wait). I recommend this museum to all that visit Lyon, especially if you want to escape the afternoon summer heat.

A privately owned museum that will delight film buffs and newbies alike! The ticket paid for itself with the ground-floor Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade sidecar (a reproduction that you can get in and photograph), as well as the idol from Raiders (that you can also play and photograph yourself with). I won't spoil your fun with more details: just know it is totally worth visiting 😊

It's rare that you go to a museum that's truly different and spectacular at the same time, but this is exactly what this is. You start with visiting various parts of the set of the movie Perfume. Then there are a few floors containing various items used in many popular movies. You finish at the top floor containing lots of absolutely stunning miniatures used in films. Overall a brilliant experience and I'd say this is a must for any movie fans visiting Lyon.

Brilliant if you are a movie fan. Real sets, props and costumes from some the biggest movies in history. Some of the displays maybe a little upsetting for very small children, but otherwise very family friendly. The building is very old and atmospheric. Loved the Alien Queen as used in AVP and the Predator costume.

From the outside, the museum looks very small. This place has nine floors, stacked in a beautiful building in Lyon's old town. The miniature exhibits are out of this world. They are meticulously designed and illustrated with lighting. The cinema part of the museum is also fun. Do not miss this place if you are in Lyon.

A very nice place, located in the center of the old town in an old building. The museum presents many interesting fragments and costumes from different films.

4 floors. 9 rooms. More than 500 items from Hollywood film studios and other studios from the world! Incredible experience. I literally saw decorations and costumes from original Star Wars, Back to the future, Batman, Spider-Man (all movies that were made before the digital era) - all these amazing things! These emotions and feelings have to be experienced. Thanks to Dan Ohlmann for collecting it!

This museum was so incredibly amazing, we loved it! So many great movie props, costumes and prosthetics from the actual movie productions - what a collection! I was especially blown away by the miniatures collection on the top floor. I could have spent all day looking at each scene; the talent of the artist who constructs them is otherworldly. Definitely check this one out!

When visiting Lyon, I didn’t have the intention to visit this museum. It was the beautiful reddish building that attracted me and I am very thankful. It was a beautiful experience, many interesting surprises and mesmerising pieces. Totally recommend

Came here over 7 years ago and I returned today. Such an endearing place, a Lyon must and, if you love films/design, you will enjoy it so much. My only comment is that it lacks accessibility; the elevator was not working and the exhibitions are inaccessible unless you go up and down some slipper stairs over and over again. Love place!!

Fantastic! Set in an amazing multi story building. Lots of neat movie props and history as well. Information signage is English too. The miniatures on the top floors are lifelike and excellent in the recreation. Well worth the cost of admission and set inside the old town so lots of great stuff to see nearby too. Highly recommend!

An enjoyable museum with displays of props and costumes from film and a lovely exhibition of miniatures. The Lyon City Pass allows discounted tickets at €5 instead of €16.

What a lovely museum. I did enjoy it more than I thought that I would. You need at least 2hrs. Recommended when in Lyon.

Definitely a larger focus on older movies in this museum which is only natural. I’d say you need to be 25 or older to understand everything but it’s easy to appreciate for movie fans. Lots of cool props, the sets are rather niche but cool as are the miniature sets.

An amazing museum with so many items that would turn the heads of movie addicts. Real items that were used in blockbuster movies. The miniature part of the museum is really unbelievable, the level of details is incredible. A highly recommended destination whenever in Lyon

This museum has a varied selection of items contained within a large futuristic looking building. There is one floor of temporary exhibitions and another with permanent collections. It feels like one of those educational museums that children will enjoy more than adults (there were several school groups on the Friday I visited), though there's just enough to make it worthwhile for adults too - I personally really enjoyed seeing and reading about the impressive collection of minerals and fossils. All information in French and English. Took me about 2 hours to see everything.

Had such a great time here, we visited during the peak of heat wave so we got free entry! But it would have worth spending money for the ticket anyway! The exhibitions are very well curated. Even my friend who doesn’t normal goes to museum also enjoyed it! The information were very English speaker friendly. Such a shame that we only had less than 2 hours to go through everything. Would love to come back again one day

The museum is truly a wonder. It offers a rich tapestry of art, history, and culture. Each exhibition is a journey in itself, a voyage through time and creativity. From ancient artifacts that whisper stories of the past to contemporary masterpieces that push the boundaries of artistic expression, there's something to captivate every visitor. The depth and diversity of the collections are awe-inspiring. So, take your time, soak it all in, and let the museum's treasures unfold before you, creating a memorable and enriching experience that leaves you with a deeper appreciation for the beauty of human creativity and our shared history.

This was a highlight of my trip to Lyon. A very well done museum with several temporary and permanent exhibits. My favourite was the taxidermy/tree of life/exciting animal exhibit. Notable things include the skeleton of a mammoth, massive whale, dinosaur, pterodactyl’s, dodo bird and elk. The temporary exhibit of the photographer Marc Riboud was very interesting showing some very real moments throughout history. Worth noting to spend more time in the permanent exhibits than the temporary ones to make sure you have enough time to see the important things.

The architecture and garden of the museum is something to see in itself. Only had time for one temporary exhibit, but it was done extremely well. Given the sensitivity of the topic, representations of Native Americans over time, it was a job well done.

My review refers to the external structure, as I have not had the opportunity to visit it internally. Well, it really is a very, very strange structure, even if it is useful to be able to shelter from the hot Lyon sun and it is also located in a fairly nice area of ​​the Confluence district. Anyway, I've heard that the museum inside is really nice!

Incredible place! The collections were very well organized and there’s a lot of interactive area too - mindblowing experience of touching a meteorite piece or dinosaur fossil. There’s a lot to see so reserve a whole afternoon for it at least. There’s a lot of Asia/Africa cultural objects and art, amazing fossils and quality taxidermy. Staff was kind and helpful. Museum accessible in English. Entrance free of charge with City Card (2023). Architects totally allowed to freak out!! Awesome views of the rivers, good place to sit and watch the boats.

An interesting museum mostly about human, animals, history and culture. Very organized and interestingly presented. The architecture is modern as well. The staff are polite and nice. The entrance price was logical as well. All info were available in English. 👍

Ok museum with educational themes. As a tourist, I found some sections/articles without English translation which was a bit disappointing. The employees speak English very well and are very kind and helpful. Yet, there are a lot of kids at the museum which kinda make the atmosphere very noisy at points. Some galleries like the African section could have been more attractive. Some galleries also have a very long waiting queue. Try to get yourself to the fifth floor because you get a gorgeous view of the city. It’s a must-see, especially at sunset. Overall, I give this museum a 6.5/10.

Disappointing. The permanent exhibition remains unsatisfactory, somehow does not go deep enough or wide enough… rather superficial and with not really too much to show … did’t like it. But then, I’m not into ethnography much myself. On the contrary the building is stunning!! Wonderful architectural daring ideas that was great to see come to life there! I could not stop to look around in the corridors and in the stairs and enjoy the openness and energy of the place!

One of the best museum experiences I ever had! It is such an interesting museum! It is really modern and everything is also in English. It has exhibitions about Life, Death, Evolution and the Human Experience in general. I recommend it to everyone.

Great museum with amazing architecture and great exhibits. The building itself is worth the visit. The museum has several permanent and temporary exhibits which are very interesting and interactive (Even the kids enjoy them). The upstairs cantine has good options for meals or snacks and the museum shop has a great selection of beautiful objects. I enjoyed it so much, I had to get the yearly pass!

It was the best museum we have ever visited. If you need to visit one museum in Lyon or even in France, let it be this one. Each exhibition was special but especially the one dedicated to the history of the world and universe was simply brilliant. It was full of inherently interesting artefacts and rare objects like real star dust or remains of prehistoric animals. I was always wondering why such exhibitions about the most interesting topics for humanity are not common to find. The other exhibition about the society and knowledge was mesmerising and thought provoking too. Everything was so interesting and beautiful that we came back the next day to continue, so I would recommend at least 3-4 hours to spend there. And it was free for students under 26 years old!

Visited in December 2023 There are temporary and permanent exhibitions. Some of the exhibits are interactive. I really liked "Africa, thousand lives of objects" (The life of 230 objects, from their design to their various uses) and "Secrets of there Earth" (Penetrate the depths of the Earth and discover the planet's mineral riches). In fact, to see all the exhibitions of the museum one should spend a day there.

We really loved our visit to this museum. It offers a wide variety of subjects and perspectives on the universe, our planet, humans and what unites us. I especially loved the temporary exposition about the discovery of the Antarctic (those visuals and sounds 😲). Also the permanent exposition on the birth of our universe was amazing. Special shout-out for adding the short documentary of Cobalt mining in the Democratic Republic of Congo... it's heartbreaking 💔

Very rich experience. You can spend an entire journey moving from one subject to another. Decent and proper toilets. On the GF level you find a small snack and a big restaurant on the outside near the water. Great view from the highest level.

I recommend for tourist / visitors. The museum is really interesting with different focus on science, human history, biology.. I would suggest to visit it in two steps

We didn't actually go inside to see any of the exhibitions. We went to the top floor to take in the views & you don't have to pay to do that. The building was designed to look like clouds. Even the light fixtures in the cafe were shaped like clouds. Really enjoyed the views.

If you want to see real pieces of the moon and Mars, or you want to touch a piece of bone of a prehistoric dinosaur, if you want to see a real mommy and touch a real fossilized skull of a rhino, then this is definitely the place to go. An amazing experience and very informative and entertaining museum. Don’t miss it

As a student you don’t have to pay anything to get into this museum. There are temporary exhibitions and permanent ones. Was a nice break to visit. We spent more than 2 hours in here.

Wanted to get some chocolate and bakeries as it's so recommended in the market. We stood at the counter for 10 minutes, waiting to order, however, none of the 3 staff greeted us. There are no customers in front of us. It's not really acceptable the way they treat their customers

There are plenty of options to eat and buy food related items, but it still feels like it's missing something. Very busy and the service don't go late into the afternoon, so in the middle of the day you maybe can't find something to eat there. The restrooms are terrible, really really dirt and well maintained. I think that carrying the name of the great Paul Bocuse they should be more careful

This is a nice indoor market. It has quite different atmosphere to la boqueria market in Barcelona. Both of them are great place to see and eat. But, this market has unique features like quiet and less crowded. Local fruits, cured meat , and seafood were excellent. My wife and I enjoyed cured meat and varieties of seafood, oysters, sea urchins, shrimps, and clams. They know how to sell and packages cured meat. One of stores used a vacuum sealed package for cured meat. We felt safe to carry them. All of staffs were friendly and kind. One of members even made a luxury restaurant reservation for us. I think that they know good local restaurants because they are the food suppliers.

This is a lovely spot, well worth a visit, since you are in the gastronomical capital of France. Great selection of seafood, meats, pork, cheeses and wines on display and for sale. Many people dine here at reasonable prices. It attracts locals and tourists alike. It is open all week, but Sunday morning is our favourite day here.

If you’re in Lyon this place is a MUST MUST! Best oysters you’d ever find anywhere! Prices are decent for the amazing quality of fresh food and produce you’re getting. Hands out one of the top places to try everything in one place.

Love their mini praline tarts! All the patisserie are very well presented. Good stop for a treat :)

So many choice- and none of them are wrong! Had fresh oysters- and when I say fresh I mean that they tasted as if plucked out of the ocean! Served with a friendly smile and quick service. 10 out of 10 will be going back!

The pastries are so pretty, it feels almost guilty to eat them. Nonetheless, I ate them. I ordered the chocolate mousse one and I was thinking of getting more but it's so rich that I was very full at the end. I'd like to go back and more of the pastries. There were dozens and dozens!

Must visit.. Big Like, some seafood restaurants need a reservation, good prices.. Has everything 😍

Even if you are not a gourmand, I totally recommend this place if you want to have a true Lyonnais experience. The food smells and tastes excellent and the cakes and cookies are amazing.

Beautiful but highly expensive marketplace in Lyon. I think the food and pastries here are good but you can get food and pastries as good as here for lower prices around the city. Worth a visit nonetheless, it is a good marketplace with many fresh seafood items as well.

Interesting high class indoor food market near to the Westfield Shopin Centre in Lyon. C3 bus stops outside. Cappuccino coffee was OK, but not the best we had in Lyon.

I am always impressed by the architectural design with remarkable acoustic qualities of such Roman theatres. The setting, with the enhancement of sound and lights by modern technology, offers excellent experience and enjoyment. The downside is it is open air, so events could be affected by weather.

Really beautiful amphitheater . Always a lot going on there as it is still being actively used. When we were there there was a band doing sound check for a concert later that night. Our friends stumbled into a gladiator performance here. Steep stairs but not so bad. Great views of Lyon… and free!

It's great to visit such old moments and imagine life long ago. It would be nice to have more information about what exactly the ruins are, maybe some pictures of recreations. One picture shows a sign that likes like it leads to other signs to discover what they ruins are, but when you go to those numbers places, there is nothing. VIP? Huh? They had things set up for concerts in the evening. That sounds kind of cool, but the modern equipment detracts from the history. Well so far, it was one of the few places in Lyon I've seen without graffiti everywhere. We walked down to a boulangerie, grabbed lunch and ate in the theater, a fun day.

There was a lot of construction going on, but it was a cool site. Don’t miss the museum (I think it was 8€ per adult). It is a beautiful architectural design where you start at the top and wind your way down through the exhibits. The lowest level has a kids play area / discovery zone too. Many of the descriptions are only in French so you can use your iPhone camera to take pictures and use the text translate function to read the descriptions if desired.

We made sure to make this a destination in our weekend walking tour of Lyon. Very impressive amphitheatre and would have loved to learn more about it but we didn't have the money for the museum at the time.

Great museum for adults and kids. The cost is low €4.5 per adult from memory. I had pre-booked audio guides in French and English for a group of 11 at no extra cost. The quality of the sound was good and the explanations very informative. The building itself is amazing, the museum very well organised over 5 floors, it has well signed stations to start playing your audio guide (a kid version is even made available), and there are many interactive stations to entertain and educative kids and adults.

An exceptional piece of history that is free to view at the top of the hill in Lyon. We took the venicular up to the Basicila and then walked the 400m to the ruins. These are so intact and truly exceptional. There is also a museum on site that you pay to enter, but was not open today. We visited on a Monday. We walked back through the town and took in the stunning views back to the old town. Highly recommended

Truly beautiful history! It sits close to the Basilica Notre Dame de Fourvière and overlooks the city. Perfect place to take in the sites. Make sure you bring your camera!

An old roman theatre but still in a perfect shape. Visiting in the evening by metro, the weather was great. It is free of entry fees. You can stay as long as you want. But please keep you eyes out for the stairs as it is soo steep. Beware of falling down. Overall, It is a good place to chill out with your friends.

Beautiful ruins and view out over the city. It does feel a little surreal to be able to walk and climb amongst something so ancient. I love that performances and cultural events still make use of the ampitheatre, but some of the modern installations do detract from the authenticity. I wish more thought was put into how they might be integrated less clumsily - like how the nearby museum is built into the hills.

Went up to the Cathedral and passed by this place. From here you can see the Lyon city view and a good spot to relax and enjoy the view. I didn’t go to the museum. A good place to spend sometime.

A beautiful Roman amphitheater on the hill next to Lyon. Entrance is free and best way to get here is the furnicular to the Church at the top of the hill. It's a short walk down the street. It's amazing to think that this place has existed since the Roman times. Nearby is a museum which we did not visit.

We were fortunate that our visit to this archaeological site in October 2023 coincided with a special festival of Roman civilization that takes place once every two years. It was an incredible experience that offered us a deep insight into the components of the Roman camp, the organizational structure of life within it, and the diverse range of handicrafts that accompanied these camps to fulfill the needs of soldiers and officers. We witnessed fascinating demonstrations, from blacksmithing to leather tanning to weaving, which showcased the ingenuity and skill of the ancient Romans.

Pretty impressive. It was calm and we enjoyed reading its history under the sun while being able to rest while sitting around Roman ruins!

Must visit place in Lyon! Walking around in the ruins of the theatre is free of charge! Also really good view of the surrounding.

Visiting the Théâtre Gallo Romain de Lyon-Fourvière in Lyon was a nice experience. The site features interesting historical features, and the best part is, it's not crowded at all. It also has relatively good wheelchair accessibility. You are also able to sit on the stairs, and the view for there is admirable A notable feature is the freedom to capture the beauty as photography is allowed everywhere. Additionally, the site hosts events sometimes, but the dates will have to be researched. If you're in Lyon, Théâtre Gallo Romain de Lyon-Fourvière is a must-visit.

Théâtre Gallo Romain de Lyon-Fourvière is a breathtaking ancient theater steeped in history. The sheer grandeur of this site and its picturesque backdrop make it a must-visit. The architectural marvel and scenic vistas make for an awe-inspiring experience. Perfect for history buffs and anyone seeking remarkable views.

Very nice little hike up through the village. Gets good view of the city as well.

Very interesting. I'd suggest everyone to visit with a guide to better understand the history of the city

Traboules in Lyons medieval town fantastic to find and lovely to walk through

best place i have visited

(Translated by Google) I don't have enough words to describe this neighborhood (where I live) and its traboules. You can get lost for days without difficulty. We talk about the history of the city but also the great History of France. To be done obligatory. (Original) Je n’ai pas assez de mots pour décrire ce quartier (ou je vis) et ses traboules. Vous pouvez vous perdre durant des jours sans difficultés. Nous parlons de l’histoire de la ville mais de la grande Histoire de France également. A faire de façon obligatoire.

(Translated by Google) Very nice visit, with a superb guide in period costume, who knows her subject. Allows you to see the traboules differently. Thanks again to our guide. To do. (Original) Très belle visite, avec une superbe guide en costume d'époque, et qui connaît son sujet. Permet de voir les traboules différemment. Encore merci à notre guide. A faire.

(Translated by Google) Old Lyon and its traboules. Not easy to find the right doors and passages but worth a detour. The restorations are successful. Not always accessible for PMR. Guide at the tourist office (Original) Le vieux Lyon et ses traboules. Pas évident de trouver les bonnes portes et passages mais mérite un détour. Les restaurations sont réussies. Pas toujours accessible PMR. Guide à l'office du tourisme

(Translated by Google) Very pretty districts of Lyon, Saint Jean of course with the square, the Cathedral, the pedestrian streets, the traboules to discover, the restaurants and shops. The funicular to go up to Fourvière and the Basilica, magnificent view of Lyon and its surroundings, then possibly go back down on foot. And don't forget the Saint Georges district, less touristy, but which also has its charm. (Original) Très jolis quartiers de Lyon , Saint Jean bien sûr avec la place, la Cathédrale, les rues piétonnes, les traboules à découvrir, les restaurants et boutiques . Le funiculaire pour monter à Fourvière et la Basilique, magnifique vue de Lyon et ses environs, puis redescendre éventuellement à pied . Et ne pas oublier le quartier Saint Georges ,moins touristique, mais qui a aussi son charme.

Good museum. A walking tour of Dijon took us here. The permanent collection is free and we went to see the Tombs of the Dukes of Burgundy. Fascinating. We had to walk much of the museum to get there and deeply regretted not having the time to study the collection.

The main idea I had is that the museum deserves greater laud. It has 3 main cathegories: paintings, sculptures, and fine art, I can say goods. It's not too big, not too hard to understand the idea, and with important historical periods and art directions. This is the museum for different "grades" of observing and enjoing. You know...I would like to come again, so you should come too, and ✔️ your first time.

Really small impressionist section, an hour is more than enough for a second floor. One piece of Monet, Pissarro, Degas and other. First floor is more about Egypt period, great garden with Rodin sculptures

This museum definitely worth a visit. From modern paintings to ancient Egyptian mummies. Consider spending minimum 3 to 4 hours. I recommend getting an audio guide which makes things easy as they don't have any labels in English or other language then French. You can easily get lost here as its huge.

Great museum with a lot of Egyptian, Greek, roman and a lot more. 9 euro for adults, 5 for 18-25 so it is affordable. They do close some exhibits during lunch so check on hours prior to your visit.

I knew that the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Lyon offered the largest art collection outside of Paris. And yet I seriously underestimated the length of the tour through the halls of this beautiful 17th century abbey. The ticket price alone would justify the walk around the amazing building. It's good to know that access to the heavenly inner garden is completely free. The museum is literally in the heart of the city. Next to it is the Bartholdi Fountain and Lyon City Hall. My friend was disappointed by the lack of world-famous masterpieces. I, on the other hand, happily went through the cultural history of five millennia. I paid particular attention to the works of Rubens, Rembrandt, Rodin, Gauguin and van Gogh. The Museum of Fine Arts met me with artifacts from every single major civilization from antiquity to the present day. This is probably the most valuable jewel in Lyon.

リヨンシティーカードを購入したので、無料で入場。フランスの美術館はどこでも内容の濃いところばかり。エジプト文明やローマ時代の遺跡からの考古学的なものから宗教画、モネやセザンヌ、ゴッホ、マチスにピカソ‥‥❗ちょっと数が多すぎて、小部屋がいくつもあるので見るのに手間がかかって2時間半、リヨン美術館の芸術に対する思いを堪能しました。 (Translated by Google) Free entry with the Lyon City Card. Museums in France are full of deep content. From archaeological objects from Egyptian civilization and Roman ruins to religious paintings, Monet, Cezanne, Van Gogh, Matisse, and Picasso... ❗There are just too many, and there are many small rooms, so it takes time and effort to see them. For two and a half hours, I thoroughly enjoyed my thoughts on art at the Lyon Museum of Fine Arts.

Excellent museum, it ranges from older paintings to more modern stuff, excellent sculptures and other interesting history, including coins, an Oman exhibition and some vintage furniture. All very interesting!

Very large museum with eye-catching paintings and sculptures. Mostly you can find religious artwork on the walls. The reception speaks English very well and they are kind. The toilet on the -1 floor doesn’t have a lift and there is no soap. The hygiene could be way better.

Great collections from antiquity to modern art. Don’t miss the sculpture hall. You can enter the courtyard for free, very nice spot to get away from the city’s noise, even to have a snack.

Great Museum!! The paintings and sculpture section was good. There is a cafe and a bookshop inside. Outside there is a garden with few statues, its a nice place to sit and read during summers and autumn. The chocolat viennois in the cafe is a must try, so creamy and rich. Must visit if you come to Lyon.

This museum has a good selection of items split into 3 main areas: 1) sculptures, 2) artifacts (featuring many from Ancient Egypt / Greece / Roman Empire), and 3) artworks (from the usual abundance of Christianity works, to classical scenes and portraits including works by Claude Monet, to some more modern paintings). Takes about 2.5-3 hours to see everything at a wandering pace. Easy to navigate with free maps available. Only French information next to objects/paintings, though the titles are translated to English where applicable. €8 entry seemed reasonable to me. Café was expensive (€5 for a cappuccino or can of coke), but most cafés in Lyon are expensive. Free lockers available. I would recommend it to those that enjoy looking around museums/galleries, or if the weather is bad.

Beautiful museum and home of the famous Perseus vs. Medusa statue. In this interpretation Perseus is right about to behead Medusa, and you can see the pain and horror in her eyes. In contrast, Perseus appears focused and committed in finishing the task, and there is no sense of remorse. Compare this statue to the one in Florence where Perseus has already beheaded Medusa and is raising her head in victory.

A huge museum with really beautiful art pieces and some good interesting brochures to get u organized. I loved the fact that there was no need for booking in advance and still, no people was waiting in line and inside it wasn't crowded at all so u could admire the art at your own pace with quality.

It has a great collection. You need 2 to 3 hours to visit all of it. Unfortunately, the audio guide was enabled only for a few pieces. On top of that, there wasn't much English explanation next to the art pieces.

Must Read: There is a coat storage area, but they will advise you to keep them with you because it gets cold in the museum. DON'T LISTEN TO THEM! It gets quite hot so give them your coat for storage. If you are using an audio tour and you have the wrong language, press 9?9 and then you'll be able to select your language. (It might be ?9? if that doesn't work) I'm not an arts person but this place has a whole lot of variety from artifacts to paintings. There is an entry fee of about 8 euros. Audio tours are available in English and French.

I love this kind of cosy and green urban spaces in the city to feed my soul. Highly recommended to visit this museum.

Discounted ticket is 4 euros. A very large art museum. There are lockers for your backpacks inside and outside the museum. The garden of museum is perfect for relaxing. There's a lot of painting inside. at least 2 s to navigate carefully

Nice building with supposedly interesting exposition, but unfortunately, it was temporarily closed during our time in Lyon, with only a door sign describing the closure - on Google Maps, the usual opening hours were shown.

An excellent art museum. Very interesting selection of modern art many from artists I'd not heard of. Very well curated. Some great modern ceramics too as well as many sculptures from Rodin. Also nice and cool on a hot day with a lovely garden.

Many exhibits have been closed recently, including Van Gogh's paintings😢 The good thing here is that you can buy an annual pass for €7 if you are under 25 years old.

I very much liked the sculpture and 19th century painting section. The Egypt- and the 12 - 17 th century painting sections were less interesting to me personally. Still 8 eur/pp full price is definitely worth it.

Very good museum on two floors in the city center, organized in chronological order from ancient Egypt to modern impressionists. There is also a temporary exhibition and a garden with statues.

lightening festival is just awesome. The city is closed and safe to walk enjoying the scenographic animation

You can find all kind of food. You May try PIZZA PINO and IODE Restaurant After eating you May drink something TONY`S Bar. You can walk, have a good time with your children, take nice photos, etc. You accros the bridge and visit old lyon. Place is so closed everywhere. Metro, bus station, taxi, tramway etc Both transition ways you can reach.

Just a big, open square with a statue of Louis XIV in the middle but the view of the basilica is awesome. Especially at night. And the convenient parking underneath is close to the funicular to go up and to the restaurants and shops in the center.

This place is really big. It also has a cool stature. you can go for a walk there, but since this place is so huge. and on the square is almost impossible to find like a few a bit or bars restaurants. I guess there is just interesting when an event takes place. Pity.

Stunning city square which is accessible via a well run A Metro line. A fantastic place to start exploring the beautiful city of Lyon

Key Central square to start shopping, walk, tour and all you can enjoy in Lyon city

Lively place. Nice to hang out.

It's sort of open ground with ferris wheel. Nice place to spend afternoon or evening. You can walk to nearby eateries or just sit there doing nothing... Monument of Louis XIV was covered with restoration work. There was some sort of historical information printed on sheets, but all of that was in French as expected. Nonetheless it is beautiful place.

Lovely place to have food. 1st time we have been there and we did enjoy it. Personally, I think they should have more meals on the Chefs choices. It was a comprehensive menu in general. The food was lovely and the service was very good.

Nice and big space but so pity when i visited , they are on renovation.

They were tidying up from a marathon the day before. Everything was covered in dismantled marquees. The famous statue has been removed for renovation so the plinth is surrounded with boards and the statue is missing. This would probably be a interesting place to visit if it was clear.

So disappointed!!! Christmas with NO Christmas tree nor any Christmas lights to be seen anywhere in the Belcour square and in Lyon for that matter, only the big wheel and half a dozen big balls were lit, nothing related to Christmas. NO Christmas lights other than in one street and all this during the Festival de la Lumière! Really? What a disappointment! Even the Festival of lights projected on buildings was disappointed in comparison to 7 years ago. It seems it has lost its way. The only one thing that was still well organised was the crowd control. For me, it is no longer worth flying in or traveling any distance nor to pay for expensive hotels or Airbnb's for that very poor show. I heard quite a few comments about the ecological mayor... my message to him, if you can't do a Festival of light with clean energy, then don't do one at all. Please don't take tourists for more stupid than we are.

THE place for kids. I love it! Bring ur kids to play and meet other friends. Playgrounds are free and clean. This is my favorite place in all, Lyon. I have taken a picture almost every day for a year, not intentionally but simply because this place charmed me.

A nice landmark but the reason of it being there unfortunately I didn’t look up. 😁maybe I’ll add details later

A lovely place to spend time and have fun. A nice place for family. A lot of place for kids to run around.

For being the main square in Lyon, I have to admit it really sucks! It's empty, it's literally impossible to find any benches, it's filled with some kind of strange sand that doesn't make any sense at all. I don't really find any sense of the existence of this square!! The only good thing is that it is very convenient from a transport point of view

This place just didn't hit the mark for me. Sure the square was large, but it was just a huge open space with some construction. I was so underwhelmed that I didn't even take a photograph! I'd skip this one unless you are in the immediate area.

Beautiful, historic building on top of a mountain in Lyon. It offers beautifully detailed artwork especially looking at the colourful windows and amazing architectural details. - The fact that it is situated on top of a hill also creates an unmatched view onto Lyon. Don't forget to bring your glasses. 🤓

A beautiful old church with a lot of history, but not quite as elaborate as the Bascillica on the hill that overlooks it. We were treated to an organ practice which made the experience even more enjoyable. Make sure you visit in the afternoon, as the sun streaming through the stained glass windows provides the most amazing light and patterns on the beautiful columns. Visiting in the afternoon does mean there are more people around. Don't forget to look up to admire the ceiling too.

A great (and free!) place to visit in Lyon before you go up to the Basilica via the funicular as it’s very close to the station. Quiet place to admire the interior of the building and beautiful stained glass windows which cast wonderful colours onto the ground.

It is truly a very beautiful cathedral, I think one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. Absolutely recommended to visit it, as it is one of the symbolic monuments of Lyon

Impressive cathedral in the heart of Lyon. Wonderful architecture and artwork. Ideal for sightseeing and cool down on a hot sunny day.

Lyon Cathedral is located on Saint-Jean square in the center of Lyon. The cathedral is dedicated to Saint John the Baptist and is the seat of the Archbishop of Lyon. It has a beautiful facade and interesting details. It has been in this state for over 500 years, but it was renovated a few centuries earlier.

The Cathedral is nearly 8 centuries old and took long to construct. It looks great in the interior architecture, with lovely paintings on the glass all around. It is not crowded during the afternoon, and one could come and have a peaceful time here remembering the Saviour.

Very nice and beautiful church.

Breathtakingly beautiful and grandiose. Extremely well preserved. Most amazing view from outside the church.

Exploring the cathedral, I marveled at the historical artifacts and the role it played in Lyon's history. It's a place where faith and art intersect, and it left a lasting impression on me. Cathédrale Saint-Jean-Baptiste is a place where the beauty of architecture transcends religious differences, and I would recommend it to anyone who appreciates awe-inspiring structures and their historical importance.

Very tranquil I went early morning not a great number of people. Interesting clock read other contributors. Truthfully I've been to more decorative Cathedrals however found this one interesting.

A historical cathedral that started since 12th century. It is located in the heart of Lyon old town. Open to all visitors except services. There is an astronomical clock that chimes at 12am, 2, 3, 4pm. A monument worth visiting 👍🏻

A lovely cathedral in the old town in Lyon. The stained glass windows are particularly lovely. Note the facade outside is missing multiple statues of kings, bishops and saints, all.od which were removed during the French Revolution according to our tour guide. It appears to have been cleaned and renovated externally recently and is very impressive.

The origins of this cathedral go back to the 12th century when it was built in the place of three smaller churches and a cloister. It was fascinating to see a huge astronomical clockwork that, at the time I visited, was out of order. There were beautiful stained glass windows and more interesting details.

"The Lyon Cathedral, also known as Cathédrale Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Lyon, is a stunning masterpiece of Gothic architecture. Its magnificent facade and intricate details are a testament to the skill of its builders. Inside, the cathedral is a realm of serenity, with beautiful stained glass windows and impressive sculptures. A climb to the top provides breathtaking views of Lyon's historic Old Town. Whether you're drawn to its spiritual significance or its architectural grandeur, the Lyon Cathedral is a place of beauty, history, and contemplation. 🏰⛪🪶

Great and quaiet place for meditation. A very nice and free museum inside. The astronomiq clock is on the way to be reabilitated.

Beautiful church on the downhill. Worth to visit during walking back to the city.

The Cathedral looks amazing inside and outside, and the view from outside the Cathedral is the absolute best of the city!

Beautiful cathedral! Worth going and seeing some of Lyon’s amazing history

Superb day out with the family. We have been inside for over 3 hours en my boyz loved it. A lot of details end funny things to find and everything inside the mini world is in french and englisch.

It's fun, really recommend if you have children, nonetheless you can still have fun looking for weird scenarios in the exhibition

Beautiful day out. You would love this if you loved netherworld miniature world. And in short this is great for all ages. I loved the level of attention to details they gave in creating in this.

A very interesting place to visit. All the models are very well managed and there are some animations all over the place. There are some models from many movies or cartoons that make it even more interesting. Easy parking.

Amazing place to visit with children, where myself I felt like kid. A lot of small details made with love. Light and music show. Exposition is growing and we’ll be happy to return. Easy access from the free parking of commercial center.

So much more fun that I thought! Was fascinating watching the changed from day to night and the fireworks display at night time. Enjoyed by my 3, 7 and 10 year old. They were particularly fascinated by some of the tiny details.

Lyon's mini world proves to be an astonishing experience. The level of enjoyment it provided surpassed my expectations. It serves as an excellent destination for individuals of all ages, catering to both children and adults alike. The meticulous attention to detail in every little piece is commendable, and an added delight lies in discovering renowned characters discreetly concealed amidst the crowd, a delightful endeavor for visitors.

I kept avoiding to visit this place for some reason but finally went. It was nothing like I'd expected. I loved that place. Suddenly I became a kid once again. The place was huge and magical, full of small details. And you got to find small dinosaurs 🦕

I came here because it was included in the Lyon City Card and I enjoyed my time here (even though it seems like it’s more for kids). They have a lot of displays with miniature dolls and scenes. They even give you a booklet to try to find all the popular ones like Marilyn Monroe, Aliens, Mary Poppins, Harry Potter, Nemo, Jurassic Park, etc. I wouldn’t come here again alone (as an adult), but I would definitely come here with kids and easily spend 2h: trying to find all the characters. It also wasn't crowded when I came during the weekend.

I'm absolutely obsessed with this place! In terms of square meters, it's not really that big. However, because the displays are made of miniatures, there's so much to see. I thought I would maybe spend 30-45 minutes here, but before I knew it, two hours had passed by. There are so many interesting and silly details to explore in the displays, such as someone hanging on for dear life off a derailed roller coaster cart and a murder scene in an apartment building. The mini Lyon feature is amazing. It has all the important Lyon landmarks, although some stuff isn't geographically correct, but who cares when it's all there and accurately depicted. If you're a local, the annual pass is totally worth it because it's just a hair over two times the cost of one adult admission. This is a family-friendly place, but adults will enjoy it as much as the kids will.

Quite an amazing place, not what we expected. Great quality of the miniatures and the diorama. Attention to details is visible. Lot's of funny elements too. Worth a visit. Takes about 2 hours to see it all.

Look no further for a super entertain the kids on a wet afternoon adventure. It's anybody who ever had a model railway dream trip out but it's also created with stunning attention to detail and a sense of humour in the "who is where and with whom" miniature crowds (expect film stars, musical heros, Disney characters even Telly Tubbies in a golf-cart!). Enough to keep keen eyed adults busy. The moving parts are not just model trains but vehicles, ski lifts, dancers and scaters too. Every 20-minutes the whole exhibition goes from dawn to dusk and tiny streetlights, car headlights and illuminated hoardings plus night skies reveal a new vision of mini world. Finally, a three set display of Lyon's landmarks that gets a fête de la lumiere display at night. Decent WCs, free lockers, stroller parking area and a café inside. Don't miss,...look over the controllers' shoulders at all the CCTV cameras, as several screens give the view from the trains. Visit time, allow at least a couple of hours. And, it's a short walk from the T3 tram.

It is definitely the most beautiful fresco in Lyon, you absolutely must see it. You cannot leave the city without having it visited!

We took the train to visit this very impressive mural. It's hard to believe it's a painting as you are walking up the street as it has an amazing 3D affect. The wall is actually flat (it's the back of an apartment block) but the mural gives the illusion of stairs, multiple buildings, trees and even people. It is very cleverly done and I would recommend seeing it yourself if you are visiting Lyon. There are not many examples in the world as good as this one.

The big wall trick-arts painting which was made in 1987, 1997, 2013 and every time it was painted, it was changed a little bit. If taken properly, the pictures would look like real.

Amazing! So creative! Look so real! We took a bus and walk to get here and witness for our self one if the most creative murals Lyon is famous for! I added my spin on it.. can you find it???!

Street art of great quality in a ancient neighborhood where you can have a great view over Lyon. It was a ancient place of proletarian people, but now is a fancy area.

Such a lovely place to visit in Lyon if you like murals. Looks so realistic! I appreciate all the artists who did it! Must visit place in la croix rousse!!

Just incredible. The city is full of art, but this place is a must! Recommend

This is a must do and I would encourage the walk up to see small pieces of wall art along the way from the lower part of the city. Art installations like these being so much vibrancy to the area. Also if your in need of a caffeine boost after walking burning cat cafe in the area is a great place.

Murs de Canuts in Lyon is seriously mind-blowing! This place has this massive fresco showcasing rebellious silk workers from way back in the 1800s. It's like stepping into history with a splash of art! I was left in total awe. If you dig Lyon's past and love cool art stuff, you gotta check it out.

Pretty cool mural / optical illusion with the history of the different changes and updates that have been made to it over the years.

This mural is amazing! 10 ish stories tall, on the side of a flat building. Looks 3D! We had to go up to the building to see if it was actually flat. Metro line C gets you within 1/2 a block.

Wonderful painting located on a wall in Lyon. I visited two times and it looks always beautiful. You can reach by Metro and nearest station is Hénon. It is open area, can be visited at anytime. I recommend to visit if you haven't watched any large mural painting yet.

Very impressive mural, and incredibly well detailed. The characters in the mural look very real and the activities they do are relevant to the current day. The murals are redone every decade or so in order to reflect the current architecture styles, and themes of the day. For example, the walls done recently have a theme of sustainability (as seen by the wall gardens, which look very real by the way). Will definitely recommend a visit if you are around

It's a perfect spot for photography!

Unique and Captivating spot The Mur des Canuts is primarily recognized as a historical landmark, as it features a beautiful mural showcasing the city's history. The ambiance of the place is quite charming, as you can feel the authenticity of the city's culture within its walls. The staff were friendly and attentive, making me feel right at home. While my experience was overall quite positive, there were a few areas where I felt improvements could be made. For example, the service could be a bit quicker during peak hours, and the seating arrangements could be more comfortable. However, these minor issues did not detract too much from my overall experience. What truly sets Mur des Canuts apart from other establishments is its unique historical significance and cultural importance. The mural is a beautiful work of art that truly captures the essence of Lyon's rich history. I would highly recommend visiting this spot, as it truly is a one-of-a-kind experience. In terms of suggestions for improvement, I would recommend the owners invest in more comfortable seating arrangements and perhaps offer more diverse menu options. These minor changes could help attract more customers and enhance the overall experience. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone looking to explore Lyon's rich history and culture.

The architecture of the buildings is truly worth seeing. The entire square is surrounded by very old and elaborately decorated buildings. On the square are cafes and restaurants, ideal for taking in the whole artwork.

One of the must visit places in Lyon. Huge open area with numerous bars and restaurants around it. One of the venues during the Fêtes des Lumières.

My favourite square in Lyon, which is simply gorgeous!!

Worth to visit by sightseeing, only 10 minutes and you can go to the museum. Beware your pocket as well.

Love this city center, fully of rich history.

This was an amazing place to visit, even in the cold. It's truly a sight to be seen.

The place des Terreaux with the majestic city hall of Lyon is a great photo subject. And it is just nice to sit at the fountain in front of it and to see people walking by. The square with its view onto the city hall is one of the most well-known landmarks of Lyon.

Nice square in downtown area. Also a cool fountain in the middle of the square. Worth stopping for a bit if you’re in the area

Nice architecture surrounding the square. The highlight is the Fountain depicting Amphitrite, Greek Goddess of the sea. It is an impressive sculpture.

Iconic plaza in Lyon, very eclectic crowd, a few café-trottoir to enjoy the liveliness of the area. Overall, à pleasant experience.

Very nice place, must visit. 2 main classification of site seeing. For all family members or for adults only. So you need to select before you enter. And in all cases, you will pay a ticket as per your selected visit site.

Full of sunshine , beautiful Town hall. And the horse fountain must be refreshing in the summer. Lovely to have a drink there !

Its amazing. The artist has done an amazing job. It looks as if they are real people doing something or the other! Lovely to see it

Quite amazing. Worth going out of your way to see. There's a great little bakery on the other side if you want a coffee and a cake

This mural of famous Lyonnaise people looking out of windows is captivating. The world would be a better place if every city showed some pride in its famous sons and daughters and had a mural this.

Very special building. Recommend for art lovers!

Incredible level of detail at this impressive mural of many notable people from Lyon. Highly recommend as visit! There's also another huge library mural nearby at Rue de la Platiere.

See the innovators and celebrities of Lyon over its history on this outdoor detailed mural. Superb!

Beautiful building with famous French personalities drawn on it. Very lovely to see.

Went here at night to see this wonderful Fresque. Very interesting! There are nice benches that you can sit and relax to take in the view.

Beautiful painting on the building. There were a couple of artists touching up the paintings.

Unique facade showcases the daily life in Lyon. Good photo opps and we took a bunch of photos there. It's great during winter time there's not many other tourist around so pretty much had the whole facade for the time we were there!

Beautiful "trompe l'œil", all the famous people who were born in Lyon on one wall

Artistic Masterpiece in Lyon I am always looking for unique and intriguing places to explore and La Fresque des Lyonnais in Lyon doesn’t disappoint. This art facility is a true masterpiece, and I would rate it 4 out of 5 stars. From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the stunning artwork on display. The attention to detail and skill of the artists is truly remarkable, and it made for an inspiring and thought-provoking visit. One thing I appreciated about this place is the excellent service provided by the staff. They were friendly, welcoming, and informative, providing me with insightful details about the artwork and the history of Lyon. The ambiance was also quite comfortable, with ample space for visitors to move around and enjoy the artwork without feeling crowded. One area where I feel La Fresque des Lyonnais could improve is the accessibility of the artwork. Some of the pieces were difficult to see due to poor lighting or placement. Additionally, while the artwork itself is outstanding, the space could benefit from additional seating and rest areas. Despite these minor criticisms, I believe that La Fresque des Lyonnais is a must-see for anyone visiting Lyon. The quality and uniqueness of the artwork make it a standout destination, and the friendly and informative staff only enhance the experience. I highly recommend visiting this artistic masterpiece and would definitely return if I had the opportunity. Thank you to the owners and staff for creating such a special place, and I encourage you to continue striving for excellence in all aspects of your business.

Little brother of the "Mur de Canuts". Beautiful handpainted mural, a detailed niche, the life around the district. The nearby streets are also worth a visit, & some great photo can be shot! The "Fresque" is - definitely - a must go & see place in Lyon!

It's preferable to visit here before knowing those celebrities (painted on the wall)
