Hello and welcome to this UCPlaces tour of Lyon, France, a city steeped in history, culture, and culinary delights. My name is Dave, and it will be my pleasure showing you around la Ville des Lumières, or (the City of Lights.) As you embark on this walking tour, prepare to be enchanted by the cobblestone streets of Vieux Lyon, the grandeur of its Renaissance architecture, and the serene beauty of its riverside panoramas. From the ancient hilltop basilica of Fourvière to the bustling markets of Les Halles, Lyon offers a tapestry of experiences waiting to be discovered around every corner. Join us as we journey through the heart of this vibrant city, where past and present intertwine to create a truly unforgettable exploration of French heritage. We will begin today on Rue de Bonnel, at Les Halles Market, conveniently located next to 2 parking lots servicing the market. I hope you have brought your comfortable walking shoes, because we have quite a journey for you today that will include some moderate climbs. But don’t worry, we have included good spots to take a break and get refreshment. Everybody ready? Great! Follow your navigation and we will begin shortly.
