Come in summer, when the sun refuses to set, and you’ll catch locals partying merrily into the early hours and leaping gleefully into the Baltic Sea. The Finnish capital ...

Reisgids Monocle Bangkok | Gestalten Verlag
A portrait of Istanbul's outposts of good food, design, retail, and more, this definitive travel guide will make you feel like a local no matter where you are from.   On first impression, Istanbul can seem a touch demure. But beneath its inimitable skyline is a teeming, triumphant metropolis with imperial history, intrigue, and entrepreneurial zeal written into its streets. It's a city constantly being remade and reimagined, and the resulting sense of opportunity and vigor is palpable. Monocle has sought out must-sees with an eye beyond the obvious, whether it's visiting the next up-and-coming neighborhood-teeming with bars, discerning clothiers, and coffee houses-or dropping in to an old-school kuafor for a haircut. This guide will point you in the right direction for the finest places to eat, drink, and shop, and navigate you through the city's architectural gems, from Ottoman follies converted into art centers to backstreet Byzantine beauties. So join Monocle for a cross-continental…

Reisgids Monocle Paris - Parijs | Gestalten Verlag
There's the food, the culture, the architecture, the art--Notre Dame and Montmartre and the Louvre--and then there's the side of Paris you've never seen, until now. Paris: the city of love, the city of light --the city everyone thinks they know from movies and books. But there's more to this vigorous new-old metropolis than Notre Dame and the Eiffel Tower. Along its winding streets and hidden in picturesque views along the Seine, there's so much more to do and discover, to taste and see, than what you imagine. The Monocle team is your guide as you explore the nouvelle cuisine in the city's up and coming restaurants that are revitalizing classic dining. Step off the beaten path and into galleries showcasing works that will inspire future art world trends. Escape the crowds and the tourists in laid-back local bars and classy clubs. And then bundle up in designer goods from the best unknown boutiques as you stroll through history and romance. Paris is a wonderland. This is your ticket.

Reisgids Monocle Honolulu | Gestalten Verlag
Reisgids Monocle Honolulu | Gestalten Verlag
Honolulu - where surfers and hula dancers mingle on pristine beaches beneath a volcano. The capital of paradise, Honolulu is more than just the gateway to surf, sand, and sun.   Beyond the beaches and behind the palmlined streets there's a bustling city of culture and the arts, of fine dining and clubs. It's a city by the sea where cultures melt and mingle and the beautiful surroundings are a backdrop for even more incredible goings on.   The Monocle team has set sail to bring back more than just picture postcard sunsets, reporting on the vibrant nightlife in Chinatown, the starred chefs and farmers markets, the pan-Pacific arts scene, and more. This guide also provides unique possibilities for getting away from it all: make Honolulu your base for hikes up volcanic mountains and relaxing beach excursions - or finally learn how to surf. The city is truly a world apart. And now you've got the key.

Reisgids Monocle Hong Kong | Gestalten Verlag
Vertigo-inducing skyscrapers that cling to mountainous slopes and busy fishing villages that proudly hold on to their cultural heritage: Hong Kong is more diverse than you’d imagine. Navigate the futuristic covered skyways connecting office towers and you’ll pass over temples from which incense smoke trails towards the heavens. This city can appear to be an impenetrable collection of concrete high-rises, but you are rarely further than a short taxi ride from verdant hikes. The mix of high and low will charm the most hardened urban travellers.    Monocle’s Hong Kong takes you on a fresh journey from the best dining spots to side-street food stalls. The Monocle team will also show you where to head for rich retail experiences and handmade shoes and shirts. Then there are walks to take you away from the hustle and bustle of Central into plant-filled streets where the din of the city disappears. Hong Kong may have been built on trade and commerce but it’s now also a place where contemporar…

Reisgids Monocle New York | Gestalten Verlag
A journey through New York's outposts of good food, design, retail and more, this definitive travel guide will make you feel like a local no matter where you are from. New York used to be such an easy city to crack for the visitor. Not only was there that simple-to-master grid of streets but, really, who wanted to stray from Manhattan? Today, while that stretch from Wall Street to the Upper East Side and beyond still enchants, awes, and bamboozles, you really do need to cross some bridges and head upstate. The city's focus has fractured and shifted and you ignore the appeal of, say, Brooklyn at your peril. This is especially true of anyone wanting to grasp the city's fast-evolving food scene, discover some fresh design ateliers, go for a run, or buy some less-exposed art. Monocle has had a bureau in New York since its launch in 2007 and it has a shop in the city too. This has made the Monocle team passionate about the place and its ambitions. This book is a celebration of all that they…

Reisgids Monocle Athens | Gestalten Verlag
Get to know the most atmospheric open-air cinemas and drawn up walks around Athens' neighborhoods -- one a leafy suburb, another by the sea. Think of Athens and the first things that spring to mind are ancient ruins and camera-toting crowds (before they hotfoot it to the island-bound ferries at the port of Piraeus, that is).   It's true, the Acropolis is ever present and during summer the city thrums with schools of holidaymakers. But there's much more to the Greek capital than temples and tourists.   We've looked beyond the admittedly awe-inspiring Parthenon and explored the city's modernist marvels, from circular school to colonnaded embassy. We've combed the cobbled streets for independent boutiques offering straw hats, hand-thrown ceramics and golden jewellery - all proudly 'Made in Greece'. When you're feeling peckish, choose between traditional family-run tavernas and contemporary restaurants spicing up classic Greek dishes.   Attica is a region of riches and, of course, some of …

Reisgids Monocle Beirut | Gestalten Verlag
Beirut is a Mediterranean destination driven by adrenaline, optimism and the energy of a populace who embrace high jinks – and it fulfils its status as capital with an urban panache that’s unmistakably Lebanese. The Monocle Travel Guide to Beirut delves into this metropolis to explore the vivacious thrum of life and unpick its many and varied quirks.

We’ll also direct you to our favoured tables, where you can feast on mezze and sip on a soothing glass of arak.

Productomschrijving

Helsinki is a tale of two cities. Arrive mid-winter and you’ll find a frosty wonderland of deserted, snow-caked streets, the residents holed up in cosy, impeccably designed cafés. Come in summer, when the sun refuses to set, and you’ll catch locals partying merrily into the early hours and leaping gleefully into the Baltic Sea. The Finnish capital is used to being eclipsed by its older – and perhaps trendier – Nordic neighbours but it has far more to offer than the first-time visitor might think. We’ve taste tested both the classic restaurants serving heartwarming dishes (reindeer fillet, anyone?) and those taking new Nordic cuisine to all-new heights. We’ve mapped out runs along the waterfront and sized up the visionary structures of design icon Alvar Aalto. Plus, one or two saunas to kick back and relax in – it’s up to you whether you sweat it out in your swimsuit or the buff. Whatever the season, Helsinki’s streets, forests and islands are ripe for exploring. So pull on your snow boots – or your sandals – and join us for a tour of this confident and cultured city.
