Architectural Gem

The Saint George church of Lyon is noticeably a very unique structure in the skyline. It is best seen from the suspension bridge or from the other side of the river. It's shape and high tops stand out compared to other structures in the vicinity. This beautifully built Neo gothic church also happens to be a listed monumnet. The church is located in the centre of Lyon in an area called as Vieux Lyon. It's got interesting architecture and some nice restaurants and bars. And no I am not recommending getting drunk after the church visit. Then again you are on a holiday. #francetrip#saintgeorge #lyon #neogothic #summerdestinations #localguides #historicallandmarks
