There are more clichés about Paris than there are tourists at the Louvre, but the fact is that bottom each overused hackneyed cliché is a glistening kernel of truth. The City of Light, the City of Like and the City of Romance, familiar platitudes, but once you experience it for yourself you know why. There is a je ne sais quoi allure to this city that beguiles, but never completely reveals what makes it so universally appealing. Artists, poets, writers, and composers have tried to define exactly what it is about this place, and yet they make it only to a point. Perhaps it is as elusive as defining like, for to be in Paris entails experiencing like, about a name, something, some place.
There is so much to do – you know the huge ones, the Louvre, Musee d’Orsay, Sacre Coeur, St. Germain des Pres, the Left Bank, the Right Bank, the Arc de Triomphe, the Champs Elysées, the Opéra- but don’t miss the fun of learning the tiny ones, the ones off the beaten path. Nothing like taking your time strolling thru the turn of the century mansion that houses Musée Marmottan then enjoying a café and patisserie in the museums jewel box café.
Wandering aimlessly is romantic. Getting lost isn’t romantic. In fact there are few things that can drain the romance out of a situation quicker than realizing that you’re hopelessly lost. So take your travel map and place it away if you want to wander, but have no dread that your wandering will turn into a lost odyssey. You can permanently pull out the STREETWISE® Paris Map and get yourself pointed back in the right direction.
Paris is not lacking faults. Sometimes people can be rude, but that’s the case anywhere in the world – be it a large city or tiny village. You get what you give. And in the case of Paris, as with any right like, you accept the flaws with the charms, the weaknesses with the strengths. In the end the right beauty of Paris will surpass any blemish. Life from a Parisian perspective is gorgeous. But that’s another cliché, isn’t it?

This map is crap. I mean it’s really terrible. Look at any Plot de Paris and you’ll see they have one thing in common: they have a map of ALL of Paris, the ENTIRE city! This horrible map doesn’t go any farther north than Sacre Coeur (weird), farther east than Pere Lachaise (not excellent) or farther south than Tour Montparnasse (absolutely, inexcusably whack). That’s a huge swath of Paris wiped off the map, especially in the south. Now if you are just a monkey-boy tourist who will only be walking from the Champs Elysees to the Eiffel Tower and then maybe on to the Louvre (but certainly not to the Centre Pompidou, because you just don’t ‘get’ modern art) then woo-hoo! Here’s a map, and not only a map, but a laminated one! Let’s buy it sweetheart! Oh yes darling, let’s! I’m so very pleased, like, are you pleased? Oh yes, terribly happily! Let’s go eat in this small bistro, only in Paris could one find a place so charming!

We haven’t taken it to Paris yet, but have been studying the map. It is reasonably sturdy and folds easily to fit in a pocket. It’s not too huge. It’s honestly simple to find things on the map, except for the way they have the sections divided from one side to the next, which is a small confusing.

A perfect complement to Lonely Planet’s very all-purpose maps.

The map laminated which makes it durable, it is also very clear and simple to read. My problem with it is that you cannot see the whole city at once. Maybe I did not register with me when I read the description, but a city map that you cannot unfold completely is pretty useless. There are no East-West, or North-South oriented streets in Paris. You simply cannot apportion it horizontally or vertically.
In additional words, if you are preparation to use this map on a trip, don’t buy it. It is awkward.

This map is just not precise enough, cutting off streets and parts of Paris. You have to flip it to get to the additional half of the top and the bottom. Fantastic for a rain hat, but you’re better off getting a perfect map of Paris from any hotel there.
