Bellecour Square: reviews and practical tips

Located in the 2nd arrondissement of Lyon, the impressive Bellecour Square is an emblem of the city. It is known for its history of course, but also for the events that bring it to life today and the places (shopping streets and boulevards) that surround it. The Ferris wheel was set up and running on the day we visited, which was a real plus for enjoying a remarkable view of this Lyon neighborhood and the Notre-Dame de Fourvière Basilica.

Amidst the density of the streets in Lyon, Place Bellecour offers a breath of fresh air and blue sky.
62,000 square meters! So in the winter, while Louis XIV sits tirelessly atop his steed, a Ferris wheel is set up.
Everything is there: cotton candy, beignets, candied peanuts... Regressive pleasures...
Well... You are not necessarily going to be in seventh heaven! It is difficult to take good photos from the cabin...
If you have the Lyon City Card (I recommend it if you like sightseeing!), take advantage of it, it is included.
