Lyon by night

Lyon by night is magic. For a short stay in Lyon, visiting the town by night is a must. Two hundred and fifty monuments are lit all night.There is nothing such as walking through the « traboules » (passages) at nightfall and ending by eating in a Bouchon Lyonnais (typical restaurant in Lyon).If you don’t feel like walking, get a night tour on the Hermes boat along the Saône river. Highlighted by the play of light and shadow, each monument emerged from the darkness. Even popular for people living in Lyon, this night cruise will not leave you unmoved. You can choose to walk or take the bus for this night tour of Lyon; from June 30th to September 1st, a double-decker bus can drive you through the city which is declared a UNESCO heritage. This is quite a convenient, restless and magical way of visiting Lyon by night.
