It is very big and located Northeast of the city center, next to the rhone River. There is a lovely artificial lake and a free zoo and free botanical gardens. This is a place where many lyonnais go with their children or dogs on the weekend.<\/p>\r\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/JWgHEewtC3JmfUuE6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jardins du Palais Saint Pierre<\/a><\/h2>\r\n<p>This is a tiny garden inside the Mus\u00e9e des Beaux-Arts. It used to be the monastery courtyard when this building was a Benedictine monastery. Now there is a sculpture garden with statues of Rodin, benches, trees and flowers. It&#8217;s a nice place to escape the busy city.<\/p>\r\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/98kqoVXVhnV5Gjy88\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Grand Parc Miribel Jonage<\/a><\/h2>\r\n<p>This park is far from the city center, but it is enormous. In the summer, many people go here to escape the city. There is an enormous lake and a very big lake.<\/p>\r\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/Sr6KqhtMfqwEQrHC8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Parc des Hauteurs<\/a><\/h2>\r\n<p>This is a lovely park up on Fourviere hill. It starts close to the strange little Eiffel tower on the hill and follows the Sa\u00f4ne river, but on top of the hill. You have amazing views of the river and back to the Fourvi\u00e8re church.<\/p>\r\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/XN5Aoonr2vDojTrDA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jardins du Rosaire<\/a><\/h2>\r\n<p>This is the park just below the Notre Dame de Fourvi\u00e8re. It is nice to walk down through this park towards Vieux Lyon after your visit to the Fourvi\u00e8re church.<\/p>\r\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/DQTWY59VWXQGd3gB8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jardin des Curiosit\u00e9s<\/a><\/h2>\r\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-155 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freetourlyon.com\/discover-lyon-magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/jardin-des-curiosites-scaled-e1586095865578-1024x976.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"678\" height=\"646\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freetourlyon.com\/discover-lyon-magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/jardin-des-curiosites-scaled-e1586095865578-1024x976.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freetourlyon.com\/discover-lyon-magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/jardin-des-curiosites-scaled-e1586095865578-300x286.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freetourlyon.com\/discover-lyon-magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/jardin-des-curiosites-scaled-e1586095865578-768x732.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freetourlyon.com\/discover-lyon-magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/jardin-des-curiosites-scaled-e1586095865578-1536x1464.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.freetourlyon.com\/discover-lyon-magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/jardin-des-curiosites-scaled-e1586095865578.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/p>\r\n<p>I love this hidden park in Lyon. It is up the Fourvi\u00e8re hill. It was a gift from the city of Montreal. It is actually very small, but you have the nicest view over Lyon. The view is spectacular. Go see this park!<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/MjzkYThSsJ5PEXuH6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Berges du Rh\u00f4ne<\/a><\/h2>\r\n<p>The eastern side of the Rh\u00f4ne is a long park. It is a great place to go running or walking and in the summer, so many Lyonnais hang out there, picnicking or drinking a glass of wine. You can walk all the way up to the Parc de la T\u00eate d&#8217;Or and even further.<\/p>\r\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/Tzenf4Tzu5bmQnkq7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jardins du Mus\u00e9e des Confluences<\/a><\/h2>\r\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-161 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freetourlyon.com\/discover-lyon-magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/confluence-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"678\" height=\"452\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freetourlyon.com\/discover-lyon-magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/confluence-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freetourlyon.com\/discover-lyon-magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/confluence-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freetourlyon.com\/discover-lyon-magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/confluence-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freetourlyon.com\/discover-lyon-magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/confluence-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.freetourlyon.com\/discover-lyon-magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/confluence-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/p>\r\n<p>This is the little park at the end of the Presqu&#8217;\u00eele, the peninsula that is the center of Lyon. Ever since they build the Confluence museum, they landscaped the area at the end of the peninsula. It looks gorgeous and it&#8217;s a lovely place to take pictures.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are some great parks in Lyon.
