A Lyon!!! May 06




Beginning of May, I travelled for the first time to Lyon, France to visit a very good colleague of mine, Bernard. Lyon is his hometown and he did a very good job in taking me to all the must see tourist places and great local restaurants.

A bit different from Paris with its magnetic nighlife, Lyon has something else much more special: it used to be called Lugdunum, second capital of ancient Rome!

Lyon is a medium sized town with breathtaking city views and quaint feel of living. It is also known as the center of gastronomy of France.

sempat lihat pawai l'equipe de lyon? mereka juara liga prancis tuh. sekiranya sempat nonton...

fathia syarif said...

Wah gak sempet tuh ... aku di Lyon cuma 2 malam. Jadi ya cuma turis2an, makan2, dan ikut2 acara keluarga temanku gicu....

V Ng said...

Aha! Oyster masih musim yah. Kata org2 sini, musim oyster itu cuma di bln2 berakhir dengan 'r', jadinya ragu2 mo mampir ke Lyon on the way to Provence. Tapi... kayaknya perlu detour neh :D :D :D.

V Ng said...

Paella di sebelah mana nih? Enak yah kelihatannya :D. Kok jauh2 ke Lyon nyobanya Paella sih?

fathia syarif said...

Hehehehe... oyster dan paella kutemukan di marche pusat nya gitu loooh... makan oyster jam sebelas siang sebelum lunch ditemani oleh setengah botol white wine.... paella nya? cuma numpang motret! Abisnya mau coba tapi udah keburu janji lunch tempat lain!

V Ng said...

Marche = market gitu? Halle de Lyon ato yg deket sungai ato yg lain? Kayaknya gue bener harus minta supir detour neh :D

fathia syarif said...

Les halles kalo gak salah... Detour deh jeng, gak bakalan nyesel deh. Aku juga sebenernya kesana kan intinya mau jenguk temen doang. Belum pernah gue denger ada orang indo yang emang sengaja mau liburan kesana. Jadi agak bingung juga sih what to expect. Tapi ternyata it was worth it. Makanannya lezat bow... hehehehe... Kota nya pas gedenya, cukup besar untuk dinamain kota tapi cukup kecil untuk hidup dengan nyaman. Ada museum yang lumayan ok (well gak bisa disamain dengan paris seh), restonya juga buanyak yang sedep2 dan harga juga ok lah. Bisa sewa sepeda di jalan untuk muter2 for just one euro if I'm not mistaken.

Ima Abdulrahim said...

he he he... apparently you and I were in France at the same time :)
I was in Paris on the 1 - 2 May.
Wah kenapa ngga sekalian cross the English Channel and visit London!! he he..

fathia syarif said...

Wah,seru banget ya kalo sampe ketemu tapi tgl 1-2 May ku masih di JKT. Aku gak mau ke London soale males ngurus visa dan lagipula waktu jalan2 cuma terbatas (cuma cuti dua hari neh, hehe). Dan lagi juga I was just in London in 94 and I go there quite frequently, jadi...... ya cari yang baru gicu... kekekekek....

Ngapain ke Paris non?

Ima Abdulrahim said...

I'm just a hop and a skip away from London :)
