Free Tour of Lyon: from Lugdunum to the Cosmopolitan "French Capital"
Welcome to Yesterday's Lugdunum, let's travel through its history to today's Lyon.
Once everyone is gathered:
We will contextualize ourselves geographically and historically. We begin at the Place de la Comédie and will move through the most important and representative areas of the Presqu'île of Lyon, where monuments, buildings, and squares, full of history and curious facts, allow us to enjoy their architecture and colorful elements that characterize them. We will constantly travel back in time to different eras, allowing us to discover all the development this city has undergone. We will be able to observe the current contrast in the city, and we will visit privatized areas that have marked an important milestone, such as the traboules. Like any good journey, we will experience firsthand the unique and delicious gastronomy that characterizes it. We end at the final point with an important review that also allows us to understand the city's religious vision.
Among historical facts, anecdotes, and details that only a local and passionate guide can offer, we will build an exciting tour, from the vibrant Gallo-Roman past to the cosmopolitan city, an essential tour especially if it's your first time in Lyon. Let's go!
