hi dear VTers, I will be visiting a fren in St Etienne and would appreciate if you can tell me what are the choices of day trips from this place ? thanks
i'm a big fan of st.etienne. mostly because it sees very few tourists so the natives are very curious and friendly towards foreign visitors. st.etienne also has a very impressive football stadium. it's also only a couple of hours by train to the alps and the bourgogne area where you have lot's of wine chateaus you can visit.

Lyon can be a one day trip from St Etienne. There are some interesting museums in St Etienne such as Museum of Industry and art. If you are a museum fan then I receommend you to visit the one I mentioned. You will know the city better after visiting. At the moment, from 15-30 of November there is the 10th international design exhibition taking place near cite du design and the observatory stand (dont know how to call it) opens all day. Going up there you can see the whole city. There are 3 halls at the exhibition; they are very interesting. THe ticket is 4 euro for student and 5 euro for non-student.
