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.

Breathtaking! Sounds. Smells. Colors. Sights. A feast for eyes and palate that sparks culinary creativity. Simply breathtaking for any foodie who love fresh products, exquisite meats, aisles of cheeses, pates, charcuterie, Foie Gras, fish, shellfish, caviar, and more. Restaurants tucked around the wide stalls offer speciality dishes from truffles (one offered foie gras stuffed ravioli with a truffle sauce), to the freshest oysters, with others providing more savory fare, and even casual dining—there are also buy-and-takeaway prepared food options. If you love looking at food, Go! If you love trying new foods, Go! If you love eating and preparing your own foods, Go! If you love just doing photography of food, Go! Oh, Heck! Just Go!

Visit one of the most beautiful stadium in Europe : The Groupama Stadium
Reviewed By liamlfc22 - Leeds, United Kingdom
The tour is excellent. We went on the English tour and were left impressed. Our Tour guide, Nais, clearly knew her stuff and was very polite and chatty about Olympique Lyonnais and football in general. The stadium is also very impressive and would recommend to anyone thinking of going.
