Take the quintessential cobbled street known as the Montée du Gourgillon up to Fourvière hill and enjoy a moment's peace and calm during the Festival of Lights. Featuring intimate, old-fashioned lighting, this attraction forms a contrast to some of the other more exuberant displays. The delicate brass shades of the street lanterns have Moorish moucharaby designs that create a subdued, golden light. Shadows projected onto the walls emphasise the size of the street and enhance its alcoves. There's an air of the Middle East in the Montée du Gourgillon this year.
