Time Out Paris continues to chart the ups and downs of this most intoxicating city. With the help of local journalists, writers and experts, the Time Out Paris Guide takes you beyond the clichés – into the places where Parisians work and play, sampling the full extent of its museums and galleries, the best of its eating, shopping and carousing, the most interesting sights, strolls and excursions.

Full colour and illustrated throughout with exclusive photography, using original imagery to give a real sense of the place

Looks like the author abhor french people and culture. What I have learned from this book that Paris is French capital of Rape, Drugs and Robber. Book is written in boring and dull style, not recommend at all.

Decent travel guide. I am not the biggest fan of travel guides as I feel you can get a lot more information and up to date advice online. I only read travel books if I borrow them from the library.
