    @7:45 confluence is a morphing district. It is overlaying Perrache district that was infamous for the now decomissioned St Paul prison, prostitution and criminality. The purpose of the urbanisation is to change the perception of that district to something hype and modern. Firstly with the mall Wesfield confluence, the fancy architecture and the museum. The problem is that it is remote from everything. The tip of confluence is mainly reachable by tramway which is slow and then only from Perrache the network is finally available.

    For the traveller from Paris, and that city’s rather monochrome palette of grey to greyer (with splashes of very intermittent colour to relieve the gloom, for Paris knows that it’s a resolutely northern place, and its buildings reflect those often cloudy skies), the first thing that strikes you about Lyon, 250 miles to the south, are the warm colours. Someone described the city’s overall appearance as like a crate of peaches ripening in the sun and this captures it nicely, as the red roofs and sun-bleached, fading stone more than hint of Le Midi, a hop-skip-and-jump down the Rhone Valley (Vienne? Valence? Montelimar?) It’s no accident that Lyon is almost exactly on the same latitude as Milan and Venice, as there is more than a hint of the Italianate in the ochre walls. Lyon is a lovely open city, with significant elevation on one side - reminiscent of Grenoble - looking east over the rivers divided by Presque Ile, across the rest of town. The most charming bit is the oldest bit, as is always the case in most French (and other countries’) cities. I almost gave myself a double hernia trying to romp up Fourviere Hill, but the pain soon eased when I clocked the majestic views from atop. There are also significant Roman ruins up here that are more extensive than I’d expected; a couple of theatres and other sundry bits and bobs. Least said about the Basilica (a sort of Romanesque/Byzantine mess of a mash-up) itself, the better. The reason to be up here are the views. The best church in Lyon is the main cathedral just down the hill. The rest of the time is best spent just aimlessly wandering. The old working-class district of La Croix-Rousse, is a (slightly gentrified) throwback to Lyon’s industrial past; a kind of self-contained village within the city. Place Bellecour, the city’s main square is a big, pompous, unwieldy thing and resembles nothing so much as a military parade ground. You can imagine Napoleon rallying his troops here on his way back from exile, (even if he never did.) But minor quibbles aside, Lyon can easily cope with 3 days of your life. I still can’t quite decide if its ‘northern’ or ‘southern’, though; I have always personally marked the start of Le Midi on this side of France at Montelimar, but on a midsummer’s day in Lyon, with the cicadas’ electric buzzing filling the air: this could well be the ‘true’ south. But where oh, where, are the shutters?!

    Really good video, but I did not look how old it was. When it started with you saying you escaped Europe just in time when 'covid' broke out, I laughed so hard because unfortanately you escaped to the worst prison country 'NZ' besides china for the cv scam. I hope all went well & your good though.

      Hi Bryn, yes you are right - the campus is right by La Guillotière. My metro ride to and from my accomodation (in Vieux Lyon) to Lyon 3 would stop here, which was perfectly safe - particularly if you're commuting during daylight hours with lots of other people around. I have also ridden various lime scooters or bikes through this area, in fact it is lovely because it's right by the riverbank. Simply put, I just wanted to flag as a word of warning to anyone to be vigilant here, especially at night.

    • @LegallyBlondeAbroad

      Hey there! Personally, I think either option works well for a solo traveller because you'll still be on a boat with a large enough number of people to make new friends. If you're not great with sea sickness, I'd say the catamaran is a better option as the boats are slightly more stable and are overall more roomy.

    Sans Souci is a palace. It's proper name is Sans' (comma) Souci.(Full stop). The latin word for comma is virgula which mean little twig. Without little twig worry stops. Frederick the great who built Sans Souci was gay and apparently caught a disease which rendered him impotent. Women were not allowed at Sans Souci. It's an over simplification but that's the gist of it.

    While half of the European population have died of the bubonic plague, the virus was coming quick to Lyon. So people from Lyon started to pray the Virgin Mary mother of God the 8th of December. The plague never entered Lyon. Since then, we thanks St Marie every year that day by putting candels at our windows during the night.
