Thank you for such a great walking tour. It makes the question "which season is the best to visit Lyon" more difficult to answer.

Lovely pics
What is this beautiful big church ? At first I thought it was basilica ND de Fourvière but obviously it is not.

If you talk about the very clean one, it's the primatiale Saint-Jean-Baptiste-et-Saint-Etienne. We simply call it primatiale or cathédrale Saint-Jean.
Fourvière is the one on the hill.

Very, very nice. The city looks spectacular - modern and clean.

It also looks lively with a young population. Are there big universities there?

Also, the bikes all lined up with some silver rack and red fenders on the wheels - what are those? Are those bikes that anyone can just rent and then drop off at another location?

Again, really nice pictures that give a good feel for the city. Thanks so much for sharing.

There are 140 000 students in the city. Lyon has the second largest student population in France after Paris. http://www.onlylyon.org/study-in-lyon-35-2.html

The bikes are called "Vlove", the citybike system provides 340 different stations: http://www.velov.grandlyon.com/?L=1
