Synopsis

The number one guide to one of the world's favourite cities: without downplaying tradition - all major sights, museums and monuments are covered in-depth - "Time Out Paris" takes detours into the hip and madly popular world of comic strips, free entertainment, open-air dancehalls and the influx of cutting-edge fashion brands on the city's most staunchly haute couture avenue. Paris pulls off the enviable double act of being resolutely in step with the modern world - mushrooming public WiFi coverage, excellent public transport system, major architectural projects in the pipeline - and as seductively romantic and gloriously historic as ever: the flagstones the guillotine once stood on are still in situ, the palace of kings that houses the world's largest museum, the Louvre, is still a marvel to behold. "Time Out Paris" goes back to the city's roots and monitors its new shoots - the plans to cut traffic in the centre by 75 per cent, the new 'boat Metro' service along the Seine, and new developments in every sphere of its world-leading fashion, arts and culinary scenes.

Biographie de l'auteur

Founded in 1968, Time Out has grown from humble beginnings into the leading resource for anyone wanting to know what’s happening in the world’s greatest cities. Alongside our influential weeklies in London, New York, Chicago and Dubai, we publish more than 20 magazines in cities as varied as Beijing and Beirut; a range of travel books, with City Guides now joined by pocket-sized Shortlist series; and an information-packed website. The company remains proudly independent, still owned by Tony Elliott four decades after he launched Time Out London. Written by local experts, and illustrated with original photography, our books also retain their independence. No business has been featured because it has advertised, and all restaurants and bars are visited and reviewed anonymously.
