@TootlyTravels
Top 3 things to see & do if you're visiting the city for a short period of time only: 1️⃣ The "Curiosity Garden" ("le jardin des curiosités") for the best panoramic views of the city away from the crowds! 📸 This hidden gem is 🆓 to visit and open all year long, it offers similar views to the famous Fourvière viewpoint but without the crowds and the location is mostly known of locals. 2️⃣ Take a stroll along the river Saône (there's a walking path) and take a minute to take in the scenery. ✨ Admire the old town's reflection on the water, the colourful brides and houses with the Fourvière Hill in the background and it's 2 most iconic Lyon landmarks: the cathedral ("Basilique de Fourvière") and the TV tower - known by the locals as Lyon's own Eiffel Tower. 3️⃣ Explore the famous park ("Parc de la Tête d'Or") and it's botanical garden. 🌿 Perfect for having a picnic with friends on a sunny day.
