Description
Lyon is one of France's largest cities. Located on the Rhone River, this town has a rich history in the silk industry. It is also considered the gastronomic capital of France.
Lyon also has interesting architecture. Picturesque scenes like this abound. The old quarter also has traboules, which were used to transport silk from the factories down to the river for transport.
Here, the central lower window has a quintessentially French metal table and chair in front, and there are flowering window boxes on the ornate railing on both sides. Wouldn't this be a charming place to enjoy a morning cafe au lait and croissant, or an evening glass of wine?
