From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Lumiose City (Japanese: ミアレシティ Miare City) is a large city nestled in the north-central part of the Kalos region. Standing in the center of the city is a tall tower, which serves as its symbol. The wide roadways are paved with brick and cobblestone, allowing both automobile and Gogoat traffic safe and easy travel.

Glitches
Map of Lumiose City by Nintendo indicating areas unsafe to load saves in
At the time of release of Pokémon X and Y, many players reported being unable to move after loading a save within Lumiose City. According to Nintendo.com, if the player saves the game in certain areas of Lumiose City, then ends the game, the controls will not respond when the saved game is reloaded. They provided a map indicating known areas where the glitch can occur, which includes the entire outer boulevards. Nintendo plans on releasing a patch to fix the problem. Until then, they advise saving in the areas not indicated on the map, or indoors, such as inside a Pokémon Center, when inside the city.[1]
Origin
Lumiose City and its tower are based on Paris and the Eiffel Tower respectively.
