The stunning French train station with an equally stunning restaurant

Paris Gare de Lyon, a belle époque masterpiece completed in 1901, serves 150 million passengers yearly on high-speed TGV trains to southern and eastern France. The station features ornate carvings, a 64-metre clock tower, and the heritage-listed restaurant Le Train Bleu, where diners enjoy foie gras and beef tartare beneath gilded ceilings decorated with art nouveau frescoes.
