Lyon cares about the quality of its living environment and wants to remain pleasant for future generations. This is why all its major projects, such as Les Berges, the Confluence district and the banks of the Saône, are designed in line with the principles of sustainable development. Everything contributes to putting people at the heart of the city's development and preserving the environment. You've visited Lyon from the city side, what about Lyon from the nature side?

Parks, gardens, green spaces, quays: every district has preserved natural spaces where it's pleasant to stroll, cycle, relax, read or chat. Along the rivers, the banks are laid out as long promenades linking the Parc de la Tête d'Or to the Parc de Gerland, where soft modes of transport are favored. The banks of the Saône also offer a pleasant pedestrian route, punctuated by works of contemporary art.
