Conveuropean

Located in the current french city of Lyon, Lugdunum was a very important Roman city in Roman The ruins of the ancient amphitheater and the various exhibits in the museum next to it tell the story of a vibrant Roman city, important to the empire for several centuries. The original city was located west of the confluence of the Rhône and Saône, on the Fourvière hills.

Last september I had the opportunity to visit again the city for a second time and on this occasion I was able to spend a good amount of time exploring this area which is undoubtedly one of the most interesting in Lyon.

Last year in September I went to visit my friend C. in Dijon. The easiest way to travel was to fly to Lyon. I had the chance to make a small tour around the city center and even if I didn't have the chance to visit la Basilique de Fouviere, at least I got a glimpse from the distance here (I couldn't stop comparing it to Montmatre in Paris)
