Frommer's Memorable Walks in Paris
Description:
Walking is the best way to get to know a city intimately, exploring its neighborhoods and taking time to savor its details and hidden treasures, so follow Frommer's for an up-close-and-personal look at Paris. We've designed ten fabulous walking tours, taking in the city's most intriguing neighborhoods. Each route takes a few hours and comes complete with detailed directions, suggested refreshment stops for snacks along the way, and an accompanying map.
Discover the atmospheric and the opulent, the ancient and the avante-garde -- everything that makes Paris unique. We'll introduce you to the bohemian Latin Quarter, with vestiges of a Roman bath among the cafe-lined cobblestone streets. You'll stroll past the Sacre-Couer and through beautiful Montmartre, the village on a hill that inspired van Gough, Renoir, Degas, and Toulouse-Lautrec; and you'll explore Pere-Lachaise, final resting place of Jim Morrison, Edith Piaf, Gertrude Stein, Marcel Proust, and Oscar Wilde.
