Rhone-Alpes, which became Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes after a merger in 2016, is not only known for its spectacular natural beauty but also for industries, especially the power sector. The main cities in the region are Lyon, Grenoble and St Etienne. The mountains, the low-lying basin of the Saône River and the lowlands of Bas-Dauphiné are natural wonders worth exploring.
The region has flourishing metallurgy, chemicals and petrochemical industries. With its hydroelectric and nuclear power plants, Rhone-Alpes is also a major producer of electricity in the country.
Though agriculture is the source of livelihood in the northern part, the main Alpine region thrives on tourism, housing the most popular ski areas. Visitors can also enjoy local wine at the vineyards of Ardèche. Thinking of exploring Rhone-Alpes? Plan a trip and check out the top Airbnb vacation rentals in Rhone-Alpes, France.
