Synopsis

'Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose': that's Paris, the happiest marriage of ancient and modern. Paris is at once a city actively in step with its time -- excellent public transport system, major architectural projects on the horizon, vibrant and innovative arts -- and as resonant with romance and history 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 as glorious and grandiose as ever. 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%, the preparations for the Olympic Games, the new 'boat Metro' service along the Seine, and new developments in every sphere of culture and cuisine.

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.
