Frequently updated and thus able to include current prices, latest restaurants, opening times of museums and so on, the City Breaks series features the world's most splendid cities. Each one begins with an introduction to the magic of the city to be visited, and then continues with planning the visit, weather and what to wear, regional descriptions with highlights, and several chapters on shopping, eating and drinking, travel hints, and other themes relevant to each location. These always up-to-date wallet-sized books have probably the best value per page for information that ensures you are aware of all the leisure opportunities and highlights you can cover in a 1-2 week stay.
