    Gare de Lyon is the 3rd busiest train station in all of the country and is a great place to get connections either throughout Paris with the Metro or RER, or to other parts of France as well. Read more

    Marvellous architecture! Trains from Switzerland and Mulhouse arrive here. Try one of the cafes outside the station or if you have money to spend "Le Train Bleu" inside the station.

    If you have time, the quintessential French meal at the famed Train Bleu restaurant awaits. If not, be sure to step outside and look up at the gorgeous façade before catching your train!

    Built for the World Expo in 1900, Gare de Lyon is one of the most iconic train stations in the world. Kill some time waiting for your train at a cafe located near Gare de Lyon or have fun with the pho

    Make any reason to take a trip through this station. It's gorgeous. Have a beer & frites on the upper cafe overlooking the train platforms, fun people watching.

    Large station with shops, cafés and restaurants. Divided into three halls, with a short walk between them.

    If your train departs from a platform with a number you are in luck as the hall is brand new and quite convenient. Otherwise you'll have all the drawbacks of a typical Parisian train stations...

    The most beautiful station in Paris! The place to go to the South! Le Train Bleu is an excellent restaurant & the Salon Grand Voyageur a perfect place to wait for your train. Bon voyage!

    Crowded but relatively easy to get in and out of. If you’re traveling on a Ouigo serviced train, not all have dining cars so plan ahead!

    If you plan to use #UBER instead ad taxi at the station, take Exit Hall1 (main) take your left and look for Hotel Mercure: it is the place where Uber taxi drivers wait for the calls

    Rénovée, elle devient agréable quand on a un peu d'avance. Attention pour les retardataires, elle est grande et les quais souvent éloignés. Beaucoup de monde le vendredi soir.

    Le réaménagement de la gare est quasiment terminé et faut bien dire que c'est une véritable réussite. Le seul point faible, il manque plus d'aires, sièges et espaces d'attente pour les voyageurs.

    駅構内は近郊路線の発着エリアと長距離便の発着エリアとでホールが分けられているので、空港のように乗る電車の表示板を確認して移動します。広い駅なので時間には余裕を持って早めに駅につくようにしませう。駅構内には簡単なバールやパン屋さん、お土産屋から薬局まであるので時間に余裕があれば十分楽しめます。映画に出てきたお洒落なレストランもあり。
