Jardin de la Grande-Côte

The Jardin de la Grande-Côte is defined by its terraced levels of greenery and a broad esplanade paved in Montalieu limestone. Situated on the slopes of La Croix-Rousse, this space functions as a transition between the dense urban grid of lower Lyon and the plateau above. The garden features a collection of white, black, paper, and plane-leaved mulberry trees, which serve as a living reference to the silk industry that once dominated this district.
