Lyon travel tips

Museum-goers can spare their money buying the Lyon City Card

Like many other cities, Lyon has its City Card, granting free access to 23 museums and the entire public transportation network. The one-day ticket for one adult will cost you €27. If you plan to visit at least 2-3 museums a day and wish to roam around the city freely, that money will be well spent.

Navigate the maze of Jardin Rosa Mir in Lyon

Jardin Rosa Mir is a 360 metre multi-level garden of rock structures, lemon trees, roses and other foliage. It was created in 1950 by a single man, Jules Senis, who thus commemorated his survival from cancer. Numerous walls, pillars and tiers of gardens seem to form a maze. Many of the structures are decorated with sea creatures, and a multi-coloured fountain is located in the centre of the garden.

Explore Place Bellecour — one of the largest squares in Europe

The 62,000 square meter square is mostly open to pedestrians. Its most prominent feature is a statue of King Louis XIV on a horse. You will also spot a statue of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry in front of his famous character — the Little Prince. A ferris wheel offers a great chance to see the city from a new perspective. From the square, you can easily find your way to the popular shopping streets and Lyon Cathedral.
