Select Paris is a brand-new, full-colour guide to this vibrant city, offering authentic experiences, fresh discoveries, and a good dose of local culture, all brought together by a writer who knows the city inside-out. The guide begins with an inspirational In the mood for...section, filled with suggestions covering a wide range of things to do, places to eat, drink and shop. The heart of the guide, The Selection, is organised by city neighbourhood, from the Ile de la Cite, Ile St-Louis and Marais district outwards to the heights of Montmartre, and finally to Beyond the Centre. It offers a collection of over 100 ideas for a memorable stay in Paris, with plenty of secret gems and off-beat haunts in the mix - from high romance at the Opera Garnier to shopping for vintage chic in the Marais. So wherever you are and however much time you have, you can dip in for inspiration and insider tips, backed up with clear and detailed mapping. Finally, Hotels is a separate section offering a hand-picked selection of great places to stay in Paris, while the Essentials section incorporates a user-friendly run-down of information on getting around Paris and other key practical points.
