Lyon travel tips
When in Lyon, see Mur des Canuts — the largest wall painting in Europe
Created in 1987, this work of art in the district of Croix-Rousse covers a blind facade of 1200 square metre. Canuts is the name of Lyonnais silk workers who live in this area. Interestingly enough, the painting, representing a typical local neighbourhood, is transformed as the district changes. This work of art blends so perfectly with the surroundings that you may not distinguish it from real buildings!
Read the inscriptions carefully at Lyon’s gas stations
English-speaking tourists may be confused by the peculiarities of the French language. At the gas station, remember that “essence” means gasoline, while “gasoil” is diesel. Make sure you are pouring the right fuel into your tank!
Lyonnaise sellers expect a ‘hello’ from you
In some countries, entering and leaving the shop without saying a word is OK — but not in France. Greet the seller (“bonjour”) when you enter a shop. If the person seems busy, a simple nod will do. And make sure to say “au revoir” (goodbye) when you leave.
