Heavy curtains, exquisite plasterwork, and mirrors everywhere for Lyon's silk merchants who wanted to be able to keep an eye on each other, Le Grand Café des Négociants looks much like it did many years ago. It is a monument in Lyon, much like the Café de Flore is for Parisians.
Cafes
In grand French fashion, Lyon's cafes are a sight to behold. From grand squares such as Place des Terreaux, Place Louis Pradel to hidden alleys in the Old City, there is hardly a dull spot to stop for a coffee.
