Spring Exchange | Lyon in March 🎧 The Collision of Machinery

🤍 🩶Paris Olympics "Cyber Silver Steed" Limited Appearance 🩶 🤍 I never expected the vibe of the Paris Olympics to reach Lyon in 2025. The silver mechanical horse that emerged from the waves of the Seine River at the opening ceremony, an 18-meter tall water-based steed with silver foil armor and a futuristic filter, is truly a sight to behold. This March, if you missed the Olympics, don't miss out on this handcrafted art from the Nantes workshop. I recommend visiting on weekdays to avoid crowds and long queues. 🐎 📍Lyon City Hall (Hôtel de Ville) Atrium (Entrance: Place de la Comédie) ⏰ Opening Hours: 3/21 (Fri) 10:00-18:30 | 3/22 (Sat) 10:00-17:00 | 3/23 (Sun) 10:00-17:00 | 3/26 (Wed) 17:00-20:00 | 3/28 (Fri) 17:00-20:00 | 3/29 (Sat) 10:00-17:00 | 3/30 (Sun) 13:00-17:00 | 4/2 (Wed) 17:00-20:00 (Final Day) 🎫 Free Entry | No Reservation Required 💚 🩷The Tender Dialogue Between Magnolias and Architecture🩷 💚 If spring in Amsterdam means tulips and in Kyoto means cherry blossoms, then for Lyon, the floral language of spring is magnolia. Mid-March is the peak blooming season for magnolias, and the collision between century-old historic buildings and fleeting spring light is where French romance truly shines. 🌸 1️⃣ Exchange Square · Low-altitude Flower Corridor 📍Pl. de la Bourse - Soft pink and pure white magnolias bloom sporadically in front of classical architecture. - A highly photogenic scene where you can frame yourself with the flowers without needing to look up. - Suggested to wear light-colored monochromatic clothing to reduce visual clutter. 🌺 2️⃣ Celestins Square · High-altitude Flower Canopy 📍Place des Célestins - Six-meter-tall magnolias form a natural floral dome, requiring wide-angle shots looking up. - The French street scene composed of theaters and cafes, with more vibrant flower colors on sunny days. 🌼 🗺️ Half-day City Walk Route: 🚇 Start from Bellecour → 🚶‍♀️ 5 minutes to Place des Célestins for a leisurely flower viewing → 🚶‍♀️ 10 minutes to Palais de la Bourse for some beautiful photos → 🚶‍♀️ 5 minutes to the City Hall to see the Olympic iron horse #FrenchLife #Lyon #City #Stroll #LyonLife #EnjoyingSpring #SpringExchange #SpringFlowerPhotos #FindingTheBestSpringView
