Monocle reports from around the globe in print, on radio, and online. As
its Edited bys and correspondents dart from city to city, they get to
know the best places to rest their heads, stretch their limbs, and kick
back with a contact in a hard-to-find cocktail bar. That information is
now available in The Monocle's Travel Guide Series: a line-up of titles
that speaks to you in an informed but informal way about everything from
architecture to art, late-night bars to early-morning markets. Expect a
mix of experiences dotted with some quirky surprises. These are books
where grand hotels appear alongside family-owned bistros and
internationally renowned galleries sit next to unassuming indie clubs
that play host to top music talent. The Monocle's Travel Guides mix the
classic with the contemporary, go beyond the conventional, and reveal
all the hidden spots that cities have to offer. Published by Gestalten,
these travel guides are for people who want to get the most out of their
stay--however short--and feel like locals rather than tourists. That's
why each book has a series of neighborhood walks to take you away from
the throng and leave you with a sense of discovery even in cities that
you have visited numerous times. Cities are fun. Let's explore.
