Gare de Lyon

Gare de Lyon is the youngest of Paris stations and one of the most important. Built in 1900 by the PLM company for the World Expo held in Paris, the station is a jewel of the Belle-Epoque style. A monument of railway architecture with a 100-meter-long facade and a 64-meter-high clock tower. A copy of London’s Big Ben, to honor British rich travelers on their way to the French Riviera.
