The main concourse of Paris Gare de Lyon in Paris, France, combines a Beaux-Arts terminal building with a large iron-and-glass train shed completed for the 1900 Exposition Universelle. One of the capital’s principal railway stations, Gare de Lyon is the Paris terminus for TGV services to southeastern France and international routes including Switzerland and Italy, alongside regional TER and Transilien trains. The station also connects with the Paris Métro and RER network, making it a major interchange for both long-distance and commuter travel.
