Lyon is home to an abundance of historic landmarks and impressive sights, starting with the lavish Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière. Situated atop lofty Fourvière hill, this neo-Byzantine basilica was built to showcase the city's wealth. Today, it's become a symbol of the city. Another reason to visit the Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière? The extraordinary panoramic views of Lyon waiting for you at the top. Other things to see and do in Lyon include the underground Gallo-Roman Museum, the Roman Theatres of Lyon, the secret passageways of Vieux Lyon, the Museum of Fine Arts, and the Confluence city center.

No discussion of Lyon is complete without mention of its cuisine. Heralded as France's gastronomical capital, Lyon lays claim to many scrumptious signature dishes, including Lyonnaise salads and fish dumplings called quenelles. Lyon's pastry game is also on point, thanks to everything from chocolate to its signature la tarte aux pralines and coussin de Lyon. Just allow yourself plenty of time to savor the meal. Life moves a little slower in Lyon.

One last noteworthy thing about the study in contrasts known as Lyon? Because it's less traveled than other destinations in France, you'll be surrounded by fewer tourists which means access to a more authentic experience.
