Berges du Rhône, Riverbank in Lyon, France

The Berges du Rhône extends over 5 kilometers along the Rhône River through six districts of Lyon, featuring continuous pathways for pedestrians and cyclists.

The banks underwent transformation from 2005 to 2007, converting former parking areas into public spaces through a 44-million-euro urban development project.

The riverbank incorporates public art installations and hosts regular events that bring together residents from different neighborhoods across Lyon throughout the year.

The redeveloped space connects Parc de la Tête d'Or to Parc de Gerland, offering designated areas for various recreational activities and riverside relaxation.

Eight different quays line the left bank of the Rhône, each named after significant figures and locations in French history and culture.
