Lyon Part 3: La Fourvière


A view from the top. It was a horribly overcast day so the view wasn't as spectacular as it could have been. Apparently we were supposed to have been able to see Mont Blanc but I'm pretty sure it was shielded that day. Still, I got to see the Alps.

The gallo-roman ruins nearby, this was where the city of Lyon was founded and apparently where the youth of the city go to shoot rap music videos if the group I passed was anything to go by.

The actual Cathedral, guarded by a griffin; I love it, a mythical creature guarding a place of worship of other mythical creatures.
