About this ebook

Paris is not a city. It is an idea the world has been projecting onto a map for centuries.

The world's most romantic capital has a reality going far beyond the Eiffel Tower and the macarons. It has neighborhoods tourists never find, markets where Parisians shop every morning, bistros where the plat du jour costs twelve euros and is worth twice that, cafés where Hemingway and Beauvoir wrote and where today their heirs in that tradition keep writing without knowing it. It has an architecture that Haussmann designed to impress and that still manages it. And it has a way of living the street, the food and time itself that no other city in Europe has been able to copy even though all of them have tried.

In just over an hour you will discover how to get around a city with fourteen metro lines, what to see without wasting time, where to eat the crème brûlée and steak tartare that truly deserve those names, how a night that starts late and ends when it decides actually works, and how to organize your trip around however many days you have. Complete with itineraries for two, four and six days, practical advice on weather, money and safety, and the best day trips from the city: Versailles, Giverny, Mont Saint-Michel and the Loire Valley châteaux.

Paris is waiting for you. And it is exactly as extraordinary as they say, and at the same time completely different from everything you imagine before arriving.
