Valladolid is in Spain's Castile and Leon province, northwest of Madrid. Although it's a small city, impressive architecture and an unexpectedly lively nightlife scene make Valladolid definitely worth visiting.

The National Museum of Sculpture, one of Europe's most important sculpture museums, includes collections from the Middle Ages to the Baroque period housed within a Renaissance building. The Cathedral of Valladolid also showcases this Renaissance architectural style and offers daily tours.

Your explorations will undoubtedly take you through the Plaza Mayor de Valladolid, the city's central square. Relax in one of the cafes and bars lining the plaza to while away the day with the Spanish locals. Or, stroll through Campo Grande Park on a sunny day to experience the many tree and flower species in the city's largest green space. The various water features and ponds scattered on the lawns make for an ideal place for a picnic.

Valladolid's proximity to Madrid makes it easy to reach. Simply take the train from the capital on the high speed AVE line, or take the Alsa bus from Madrid to Valladolid. Bus and rail routes also connect Valladolid to many other cities throughout Spain. The Valladolid Airport is only 15 minutes from the city, but Madrid Airport offers flights from many more places.

Located at the confluence of the Rhône and the Saône rivers in the central-west of France, Lyon is France's third-largest city, after Paris and Marseille. Lyon has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its 2,000 years of history and its central role in the Renaissance. Vieux Lyon is the city's historic area, full of old buildings and a vibrant French atmosphere. Wander through the traboules, a unique architectural feature of the city; these secret passageways wind through Lyon's buildings and courtyards. Several guided tours will describe the many uses of these covered paths throughout Lyon's history: from shortcuts to the river for 4th-century residents to meeting places for 19th-century silk workers and the World War II French resistance.

Lyon is also famously hailed as the birthplace of cinema. To immerse yourself in film history, visit the Musée Cinéma et Miniature to explore old movie props, costumes, and even complete film sets from several iconic films. To experience a traditional French market, stop in Les Halles de Lyon Paul Bocuse. This indoor gourmet market offers only the finest local produce, the perfect place to sample the local cuisine.

Getting to Lyon is simple, and the lion's share of options are via ground travel. Eurolines bus services offer transport from many European cities into the Perrache train station, and many train services, including the TGV, also operate from the same station. Lyon-Saint Exupéry Airport is only 25 km east of the city, providing both European and intercontinental flights.
