Mappery For the love of maps

Lugdunum

credit: Stéphane Nino

Long time ago Lyon was Lugdunum. The capital of the Gauls during the Roman Empire. As I grew up in this city, today is still a particular day. We celebrate the light on the 8th of December by burning tiny candles in our windows. And that is now the famous Festival of Lights.

I highly recommend everyone to visit this capital of French Gastronomy and enjoy this beautiful city.
