Lyon

The self-declared culinary capital of France, defended by bouchons serving the same rustic dishes for a century, two rivers meeting beneath a hill crowned with a basilica, and a Renaissance old town built for getting pleasantly lost in.
The best time to visit Lyon is Apr–Jun, Sep–Oct, when typical daytime highs reach about 18°C (65°F).
