London/Paris: 2 (Cadogan Guides) - Softcover

Most U.S. visitors to Europe make a beeline for one or both of the continent's most celebrated cities and, as connections through the Channel Tunnel or by air become more frequent and cheaper, short breaks and even day trips have never been easier. Cadogan's original two-center guide still has no competition, and this updated version includes recent big-budget attractions created in both cities to mark the Millennium, such as the London Eye and the revamped Pompidou Center. The guide focuses on what short-stay visitors need to know, providing expert advice on major events, crucial sights, the best places to shop, drink, eat, and stay, and insider tips on the havens behind the bustling streets, all in an accessible, condensed format.
