A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

MONOCLE a été créé en 2007 par Tyler Brûlé. Depuis, le mensuel basé à Londres ose l’alliance journalistique des affaires internationales, de la politique, du business, de la culture et du design. Monocle est devenu aujourd’hui une média-marque à la renommée internationale et possède, au-delà de sa collection de guides de voyage, une station de radio qui émet 24h/24, des shops dans le monde entier et des cafés à Londres et à Tokyo. Grâce à son réseau de sept bureaux internationaux à York, Toronto, Istanbul, Singapour, Tokyo, Zurich et Hong Kong et à ses correspondants dans le monde entier, Monocle est partout chez soi.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

An epic journey through Tokyo's outposts of good food, design, retail, and more, this definitive travel guide will make you feel like a local no matter where you are from.

It would take a lifetime to get to know every facet of Tokyo-so large that it spreads as far as the eye can see. But look closely and you will find a city of exceptional charm and breathtaking efficiency. The Japanese capital is a fascinating tangle of opposites: the latest technology and traditional arts; crowded stations and quiet backstreets; concrete highways and green parks. Yet it all works like a dream.
The Monocle team will navigate you through some of its favorite corners of this vast metropolis. In a city where choice is overwhelming, this guide will help you pick out the highlights. Monocle will escort you along the busiest streets and take you into the bars and cafes that Tokyo people frequent. Expect to fall in love with the dazzling food, sumptuous shopping, and the most courteous residents you'll ever meet. Monocle will point you in the right direction for everything from record shops to shiatsu massage; they've even picked out a few of their favorite buildings. Tokyo has a habit of confounding expectations and few visitors leave anything less than awed. Join the fan club.

À propos de la deuxième de couverture

The definitive travel guides that make you feel like a local wherever you go. Monoclemagazine covers the world with its network of bureaus (New York, Toronto, Zurich, Hong Kong, Istanbul, Tokyo, Singapore), its more than 30 dedicated correspondents based from Beirut to Bogota, Sao Paulo to Stolkholm, and its team of on-the-road reporters based out of its headquarters in London. Monocle-the magazine that covers urbanism and the city design like no other-knows about the hidden gems in all the great cities. It also knows where to take an ambassador for breakfast, an on-the-go businessman for a late night cocktail, or where to get an astute concierge at ungodly hours. Its deep understanding of cities and all they have to offer has been compiled in the new Monocle Travel Guides. Launching this spring with editions for London and Tokyo, followed by New York and Hong Kong, these beautiful books reveal the Monocle team's favorite places, from the ideal route for an early morning run to the best spots for independent retail. Aimed at people who do not want to be tourists but rather feel like locals when they travel, these are books for those who want to mix the classic with the contemporary, want to get beyond the cliches, and know they can get a feel for a city even if they only have a few days. And they are full of surprises and quirks: the books will guide you to a grand hotel but also to a cozy two-star, and will leave you drinking in a local corner bar or being served by a great waiter who knows his craft-while being wary of pushing you into the newest, hippest, soulless bar. Created by the Monocle design team, these authoritative guides will be trim enough to drop into your pocket and wise enough to stay by your side throughout your travels.
