About
The Grand parc de Miribel-Jonage (French pronunciation: [ɡʁɑ̃ paʁk də miʁibɛl ʒɔnaʒ]) is an urban park covering almost 2,200 hectares on the outskirts of Lyon. It covers most of the Island of Miribel-Jonage on the Rhône. This island was created in the 19th century with the digging of the Miribel and Jonage canals to help control the flooding of the Rhône.
