  • Lyon is, without doubt, one of France's best-kept secrets. Forget Paris, get a taste of France outside its crowded capital city. Lyon will surprise you in so many ways. World-class cuisine, ancient history, medieval secret passageways, cutting-edge modern architecture, and surrounded by beautiful rural wine regions.

    ❤ Lyon. I first visited Lyon for a half day as part of a Rhône river cruise in 2015. Immediately knew I would return, and I have. My return trips have included a one week gastronomy program with Road Scholar and two weeks taking half day language classes while lodging with a local family. I was last there in 2022 and stayed in an AirBnB in a traboule building!
    I guess I like the city so much because it reminds me of Paris, when I lived there in the early 1970s - history, river(s), and walkability, but not crowded with tourists.

    I visited Lyon in 2018 for a week un May. Loved it! As a french Canadian their reaction to my accent always makes me smile. The food is amazing I still think about it!

    • @AlexanderAyling

      Haha I’m sure the accent reaction was priceless.

    I have visited Paris several times and have heard more than once that Lyon is better (smaller and packed with all the things you say). If I'm fortunate to get back to France, Lyon will be a must. Thanks for this video!

    Amazing info Jay. You' ve been missed! Made my first trip to Paris in late May. Loved it but as I found the more touristic areas packed already, I can't imagine being there during the games ( to each his own). I wish the city and the games much success and safety and I am looking forward to watching the games in air-conditioned comfort at home!

    Hi. I love your travel videos. You make one of the best ones in my opinion. Would you do one for Bali / Indonesia? It might be overdone out there, but I bet you'd make the best one. I'm overwhelmed with all the Bali videos out there. Would love to see your take on it! Thank you for your videos!

    • @AlexanderAyling
      @AlexanderAyling  Месяц назад

      Thank you! I appreciate it. I’ve only been to Bali briefly once in 2013, so I really need to visit again before making a piece of content I can stand behind.
      It’s on the list again though for sure

    Born there, I'm considered "une lyonnaise" and I can only recommand my beautifull city!! You have to taste the praluline (my favorite pastry) and don't be afraid of the food you find in a "bouchon" as it is very rustic but delicious.
    I do have to warn you : do not compare Lyon to Paris in front of a "lyonnais". It is considered rude as only parisians enjoy living in Paris.

    I was living in Lyon for 60 years , and I can tell you : this city is a nightmare !!!! with an endless winter , a rainy spring an autumn , a too hot summer and a nightmarish car traffic!! Since 3 years, retired, , I live in Playa Blanca , Canary Islands ,the best climate in the world, and I can tell you : "this is the paradise where the life is cheaper !!!"🏖
