The greatest buildings, monuments, and structures of Paris come to life in these inspiring, neighbourhood-by-neighbourhood photographic tours. Each building is featured in a rich, fine-resolution duotone photograph. Information including the building's name, its address and location, and year of completion or renovation is included underneath the image. A brief description of each building, which highlights its distinctive features and places it in historical context, is included at the back of the book.
