Paris was certainly not built in a day, so exploring it in four is something of a challenge. We suggest you visit, with whatever time you do have, one or two of the districts described in this book. In each of them you will find well-known historic buildings and museums, not to mention bistros, fountains, statues or one of those unusual details so typical of Paris. Information is given with each picture, and a map reference showing the nearest Metro or RER station. You have here a Parisian's Paris, the view of an insider, who would be delighted to hear your impressions or your own discoveries. Have a great time.
