Lyon, France

Shopping Tour in Lyon

The best shopping in Lyon isn't in the malls — it's on the streets. Independent boutiques, artisan workshops, vintage stores, and morning markets are scattered through neighborhoods that reward the walker with discoveries you can't find online.

Lyon is France's gastronomic capital, a UNESCO-listed city where Roman theaters, Renaissance passageways, and a legendary food scene come together at the confluence of the Rhone and Saone rivers.

Top Shopping Tour Spots

•Les Halles de Lyon Paul Bocuse — a gourmet indoor market named after the legendary chef, with 48 stalls selling Lyon's finest charcuterie, cheeses, pastries, and quenelles

Hidden Shopping Tour Gems

•Traboules of Croix-Rousse — the silk-workers' quarter has its own network of covered passageways, less famous but more authentic than those in Vieux Lyon
•Parc de la Tete d'Or — a vast urban park with a free zoo, botanical garden, and lake, where Lyonnais jog, picnic, and escape the city center
