Discover the most splendid historical spots of old Lyon. First, you will see the Cathedral of Saint-Jean, which was started as a Norman or Romanesque-style building and finished in Gothic style.
You'll have a chance to take photos in front of the most photographed facade of the Vieux Lyon, the Lawyers House, which is also one of the top 10 most instagrammable places in the entire city! You'll also visit the Place du Gouvernement, not just one of the most beautiful places in Lyon but the home of a very important Lyonnais family, the Neuville de Villeroy, who ruled the city for a long time.
Your trip will continue at the Place du Change, one of the busiest squares with famous restaurants and silk shops, as Lyon is known as the is the city of silk. Of course, you'll see a fascinating Maison du Chamarier, a unique example of a transition between the Gothic and the early premises of Renaissance architecture.
During the tour, you'll wander through a maze of cobblestoned alleyways and hidden passages called "les traboules", which communicate from one house to another through courtyards without using the streets. Dating back to the Renaissance, they echo the design of a Roman patio.
