If you love shopping and are an art lover, Presqu'île with its concept stores, antique shops and Musée des Beaux Arts is your district
Presqu'île is the district for shopping-lovers: shop till you drop. From expensive French luxury brands around Place Bellecour, well-known standard brands in Rue de la République to original concept stores and antique shops in Rue Auguste-Comte. On Saturdays, you can walk over the heads here. Furthermore, it is the neighbourhood home to the magnificent City Hall, full of gold and bling bling. Likewise, at Place Terreaux, you'll find the Musée des Beaux Arts which includes a fine collection of Egyptian finds and a surprisingly peaceful courtyard. At Place des Célestins, you can admire a very cool work of art in a car park: Le Telescope, really worth a diversion.
