Dimensions: 4" x 8.5" folded, 8.5" x 38" unfolded There are more
cliches about Paris than there are tourists at the Louvre, but the
fact is that underneath each overused hackneyed cliche is a
glistening kernel of truth. The City of Light, the City of Love and
the City of Romance, familiar platitudes, but once you experience
it for yourself you understand why. There is a je ne sais quoi
allure to this city that beguiles, but never completely reveals
what makes it so universally appealing. Artists, poets, writers,
and composers have tried to define exactly what it is about this
place, and yet they succeed only to a point. Perhaps it is as
elusive as defining love, for to be in Paris entails experiencing
love, about someone, something, some place. There is so much to do
- you know the big ones, the Louvre, Musee d'Orsay, Sacre Coeur,
St. Germain des Pres, the Left Bank, the Right Bank, the Arc de
Triomphe, the Champs Elysees, the Opera- but don't miss the fun of
discovering the small ones, the ones off the beaten path. Nothing
like taking your time strolling thru the turn of the century
mansion that houses Musee Marmottan then enjoying a cafe and
patisserie in the museums jewel box cafe. Wandering aimlessly is
romantic. Getting lost isn't romantic. In fact there are few things
that can drain the romance out of a situation faster than realizing
that you're hopelessly lost. So take your travel map and put it
away if you want to wander, but have no fear that your wandering
will turn into a lost odyssey. You can always pull out the
STREETWISE (R) Paris Map and get yourself pointed back in the right
direction. Paris is not without faults. Sometimes people can be
rude, but that's the case anywhere in the world - be it a large
city or small village. You get what you give. And in the case of
Paris, as with any true love, you accept the flaws with the charms,
the weaknesses with the strengths. In the end the true beauty of
Paris will surpass any blemish. Life from a Parisian perspective is
beautiful. But that's another cliche, isn't it? The pocket size map
of Paris is laminated for durability and accordion folding for
effortless use. To enhance your visit to Paris, pick up a Michelin
Green Guide Paris which details sites and attractions using a
star-rating system so you can prioritize your trip based on time
and interest. For a selection of the best restaurants and hotels,
