What people say

"Oldest staircase in Lyon. Not only is it a great photo opportunity but the story behind it is also fascinating. Its most significant role was realized during World War II when local citizens used this alleyway to hide from German forces. Today, the Cour des Voraces stands as a symbol of resistance. And it’s one of many reasons why France is worth visiting! Address: There are three entrances, but to get to this stairwell you’ll need to go to 9 Place Colbert."
"Location: 14 Montée Saint-Sébastien This traboule was prominently used during uprisings of silk workers in the 1800’s. The workers would hide in this area to avoid being caught while protesting the unfair working conditions and pay. The entrance I suggested here has a sign in the front that says the name of this traboule. "
"Lyon is renowned for its traboules, secret passageways connecting buildings. The "Traboule and the Heart of the Voracious" is a prime example, offering a glimpse into this unique architectural feature and Lyon's fascinating past"

Mentioned in these guides

Nestled in the heart of France, Lyon is known as the country's culinary capital. This city brims with life and a wealth of attractions waiting to be explored. While it ranks among France's most significant urban centers, two days are often sufficient to take in its many offerings. Lyon's unique charm stems from being traversed by two winding rivers, which bestow upon it a distinct allure. Multiple bridges gracefully connect the city's three main districts: the historic Old Town (Vieux Lyon), the peninsula known as Presqu'île, and the riverbanks on the right bank of the Rhône. For a short stay, it's advisable to choose accommodations as centrally located as possible, ensuring easy access to the city's primary points of interest. While Lyon is mostly walkable, do keep in mind that it encompasses several hilly areas, particularly the Fourvière Hill. For those less inclined to undertake the uphill journey on foot, there's a cable car service available to ascend the heights. Should you wish to extend your journey, Lyon harmoniously pairs with other destinations such as Paris, Dijon (and the Burgundy region), Geneva, and Annecy. Dive into this vibrant city where culinary expertise meets rich heritage, this city is a captivating blend of historical landmarks, vibrant neighborhoods, and a thriving cultural scene. Please note that I'm offering this guide for free, so any tip is appreciated.
