Bonjour! It’s Day 17 of my 100-day trip to Europe, and I’m exploring Lyon — France’s number-three city (after Paris and Marseille). Join me in this clip as local guide Virginie Moré shows us how you can step off the streets of today and into the past — if you know about the “traboules.” History hides out, and you just need to know which doors to open.
(This little impromptu history lesson illustrates the importance of having a good guide — or a good guidebook. If you’re heading to France, you can pick up a 2018 edition of “Rick Steves France” at https://store.ricksteves.com/shop/p/france-guidebook.)
