Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

The French city of Lyon lies at the confluence of the Rhone and Saone rivers, where it has been inhabited for well over 2,000 years. Summer is a great time to visit the region to explore wonderful historic sites such as the Roman Amphitheatre des Trois Gaules, the beautiful Renaissance and medieval architecture of the Old Town (Quartier St. Jean and Quartier St. George), and the contrasting modern architecture in the new Confluence District. Here you can visit the very impressive Confluence Museum to learn about the interaction of the Earth, humanity, geography, and history. Other excellent Lyon, France attractions include the Museum of Archaeology, the House of Silk Workers in Colline de la Croix-Rousse, the Museum of Decorative Arts, and the Fabric Museum.
