description: “Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose”: that’s Paris, the happiest marriage of ancient and modern. The city’s modern touches — mushrooming public wi-fi coverage, excellent public transport system, major architectural projects in the pipeline — are balanced by his glorious historical aspects. The flagstones the guillotine once stood on are still in place, the palace of kings that houses the world’s largest museum, the Louvre, remains a marvel to behold. Time Out Paris returns to the city’s roots and monitors its new shoots — the radical plan to cut traffic in the center by 75 percent, the new “boat Métro” service along the Seine, and new developments in every sphere of its world-leading fashion, arts, and culinary scenes. This updated, meticulously checked and rechecked edition contains special features on romantic activities for couples; a new Trips Out of Town section; and an Objects of Desire” section on timeless Paris gifts. The book’s improved design, full-color photographs, sidebars, and color-coded bullets make it both easy and fun to use.
