Its capital, Lyon, is a thriving city that offers visitors historical, cultural and culinary surprises – and is said to be the ‘Gastronomy capital of France!’ The region is also home to many traditional towns and villages, such as the picture-perfect Annecy, where a taste of classic France life can be enjoyed along with lots of water sports and more mountain adventures.
