6th arrondissement of Lyon

The mainly residential 6th arrondissement fans out from the riverside Parc de la Tête d'Or, popular with families for its lake and Lyon Zoo. Offbeat art installations fill the Musée d'Art Contemporain, while antiques shops and boutiques line upscale Cours Vitton. Leafy Avenue du Maréchal Foch is overlooked by imposing beaux-arts mansions, with bouchon bistros serving traditional fare in nearby streets.
