First bit of good news: the 1st of May is a public holiday and therefore a chance to relax!
What’s more, this first public holiday in May marks the beginning of the fine weather.
Because good news comes in threes, we thought of you! Here is a selection of things to see and do on this public holiday when everything (well almost) is closed (including the TCL public transport network which won’t be operating
1- Visit or revisit the Vieux-Lyon !
The Old Lyon district has been listed as UNESCO World Heritage for 20 years (already!). What better opportunity for a stroll in Lyon on a fine spring day? Book your guided tour online or at the Tourist Office and set off in the morning for two hours of exploration through the traboules (hidden passageways)! You can also see the various facets of Lyon with a river cruise on the Saône, or on a tour bus or tram.
In the heart of Vieux-Lyon, don’t miss out on the chance to visit the Musée Cinéma et Miniature, which will be open on the 1st of May 2018! La Maison de Guignol will also be open for a great day out as a family!
2- Fancy a day out in the fresh air?
The Tête d'Or Park will be open, offering a marvellous opportunity to see the rose garden in May, when it’s at its most beautiful.
The Grand Parc de Miribel-Jonage and its leisure centre L'Atol offer an ideal setting for an afternoon nap under the sun or shade... You can also enjoy an outing on an electric bike...
If, despite the above tips, you find yourself in Place Bellecour looking for inspiration, the advisers of the Tourist Office will be more than happy to share their recommendations!
With walks, cultural outings and moments to share as a family, we wish you a very happy 1st of May!
