An irresistible nighttime tour of Paris, past and present, by the bestselling author of The Most Beautiful Walk in the World
Every guidebook to Paris is crammed with sites to see during the day, but visitors are often cast adrift once the sun sets and the Louvre, Notre Dame, and other tourist attractions shut their doors. Sadly for those who have retreated into their hotel rooms, it's only when darkness falls that the City of Light shines brightest. Full of as many unexpected detours and delightful digressions as the city itself, award-winning author John Baxter's Five Nights in Paris is the ultimate off-the-beaten-path guide to exploring the French capital after hours.
Baxter leads readers on five evening tours across Paris's great neighborhoods. Each night's itinerary is selected for its connection to one of the five senses: the first, 'Sound,' explores the great jazz clubs of Saint-Germain-des-Prs, 'Taste' samples the eclectic restaurants and bakeries of the Marais, 'Touch' brings alive the city's legendary cabaret scene, including Montmartre's nearby Moulin Rouge, 'Smell' describes Parisians' love of perfume and takes us to the infamous former opium fumeries along the Bois de Boulogne, and 'Sight' traces the favorite haunts of the Surrealist artists, beginning in Montparnasse.
