Iconic Paris
Paris calls to every person at some point in their life. Beautiful and romantic and full of art, history, culture, and great cuisine, Paris has everything a city can offer. That so many people fall in love with it is neither a secret nor a surprise.
Iconic Paris is a guidebook for travelers who want to make the most of their visits to the City of Light. Rather than simply going to all the most well-known places because that’s where all tourists go, you can learn what makes each place truly iconic so you can choose the ones of most interest to you—and know what you’re looking at when you actually arrive.
From the stories of the Eiffel Tower, the Pantheon, and Notre Dame to the wonders at the Louvre and the vistas along the Seine, Iconic Paris shares the history and recommendations for the best ways to discover the secrets of the classic destinations in Paris and what you can expect to experience at each one.
You’ll discover the studios of famous artists and go on a treasure hunt to find the breathtaking Art Nouveau buildings of Hector Guimard. You’ll enjoy the broad landscapes of Napoleon’s great parks and the beauty of haute couture along Paris’ most fashionable streets. And you'll stroll through the Latin Quarter, the Marais, Montmartre, and other legendary districts across the city.
Let Iconic Paris inspire you, let it raise your aspirations and expectations, and use it to craft the most incredible Parisian adventure of your own.
