visite guidée de la Presqu'île lyonnaise

The Presqu’île – “almost island” – is so called because the district seems wedged between the Rhône and the Saône rivers. It is the bourgeois district of the city, the little Paris, judging by its Haussmann-like  architecture. Everything is neat, refined and luxurious. The shopping streets are punctuated with pretty squares, each with its own personality and history.

You are going to be spellbound
