From Turin to Lyon, the train is one of the best ways to travel. Once you reach the city of Lyon, you will not run out of things to do or see. We recommend you head straight to the beating heart of the city, particularly the old Renaissance Vieux Lyon district. In the 15th, 16th, and 17th centuries Lyon's silk industry flourished, and wealthy merchant families from all over France, Flanders, Germany, and Italy settled in the city. They built sumptuous houses, in Gothic, Italian Renaissance and French Renaissance styles, and 300 still remain in the neighborhoods of Saint-Jean, Saint-Georges and Saint-Paules. The Traboules are a unique architectural feature of this city: these are Renaissance passages, about 40 of which are open to the public, that run under buildings in the direction of the Saône River. They gave the city's silk workers direct access to the river bank, making it quick and easy to transport textiles, while also providing shelter from the elements. Then don't forget to visit the Fourvière Basilica: this magnificent church, always visible on Fourvière Hill west of the city, is one of a series of iconic hilltop churches built in major French cities in the late 19th century. If you're into museums, don't forget a visit to the Lyon Museum of Fine Arts, the Lyon-Fourvière Gallo-Roman Museum, and finally, head to Lyon Cathedral. The city's fabulous cathedral is a predominantly Gothic construction built between the 12th and 15th centuries.Most of the original stained glass windows are still there and date back to the 1300s. Step inside to see the stunning interior and the Museum of Sacred Art and climb the north tower for one of the best photo shoots in Lyon.
