For four months we lived within a hundred metres of this hidden gem. Only after seeing a programme on arte did we realise what was hidden so close below our feet.

The car park at Parc des Célestins is stunning.

The pedestrian entrance to the car park; no hint of what is to come.

Cars spiral around a central column.

Peering down into the central column reveals a surprise.

The mirror at the base rotates slowly casting light around the car park.

The stunning architecture of Lyon’s Parc des Célestins car park.

This evening I have learned this car park is not alone in being an architectual delight; we have other car parks in Lyon to explore!
