Saint Exupery
About Lyon
Lyon is the City of Light, capital of Rhône
Alpes and Frances second city.
North of Lyon is a large area of rolling hills and valleys
where the world famous wine Beaujolais, is produced. Each year on the
third Thursday of November after the harvest, celebrations throughout
the region welcome in the new vintage.
Lyon is a World Heritage Site, famous for the gastronomy
of its local bistros or bouchons. Lyon's pedestrianised town centre
and the Part-Dieu district also make Lyon an excellent place to shop.
Specialities from the region include pork sausages, gratons
(strips of pork crackling) and salade Lyonnaise (lettuce, bacon, croutons,
poached eggs). Sweeter delicacies include coussin de Lyon (praline cream
with a green almond paste).
