The first days in Lyon

Here we are on one of the bridges over the Saone. 

This "place" is very close to our hotel. 



This is the theater Celestines which is on the Place Celestines which is the name of our hotel. It's a great hotel if you come here and you should come here because it's a great city.  This theater is the second largest theater in France. 
After crossing over the Saone to the Old Towne the first thing to encounter is the Palace of Justice. 
We stopped to have a burger at this place. It was great  it was the first burger we encountered with dill pickles. 
We took the funicular up the hill to the Cathedral. 
This is quite a cathedral. 
These ceilings and walls are those little tiles. What's the name of that?

When we exited our hotel Sunday morning we encountered the food market all along the Saone. Fabulous. 
This is Louis XIV who promoted the silk industry.
