Inhaltsangabe

Monocle reports from around the globe. As its editors 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 Travel Guide Series: a line-up of titles that speaks to readers in an informed but informal way about everything from architecture to art, late-night bars to early-morning markets. Designed to be compact and collectable, these books go beyond the traditional tourist beats to make sure visitors get the best out of a city ―no matter how short their stay. The guides are also discerning: they will not list a hundred places to eat, but they will focus on what is best for any occasion.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Monocle was launched by Tyler Brûlé in 2007 as a monthly magazine briefing on global affairs, business, culture, design, and much more. Today, Monocle is a complete, media brand with a suite of travel guides under its belt, a 24-hour radio station, a film-rich website, retail ventures around the globe, and cafés in Tokyo and London. Besides their London HQ they have seven international bureaux in New York, Toronto, Istanbul, Singapore, Tokyo, Zurich, and Hong Kong. At their core is the simple belief that there will always be a place for a print brand that is committed to telling fresh stories and sending photographers on assignments.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Toronto may boast one of the world’s most famous skylines but beneath the iconic pinprick of the CN Tower lies a burgeoning city that has become one of North America’s most intriguing and surprising urban centres.

It has long offered a warm reception to those coming from afar and today this is evident in the diverse cultural landscape comprising everything from tango dance halls and Portuguese restaurants to Italian radio stations and Ukrainian churches.

The Monocle Travel Guide to Toronto will help you experience the city’s celebrated hospitality to its fullest. We’ll show you the dining spots offering ambitious menus that draw on the city’s multicultural make-up and the cosiest bars and coffee shops. Then there are the innovative ateliers, architects and fashion houses shaping Toronto’s visual vocabulary, the top venues in which to delve into the thriving arts and music scene and the most picturesque routes for an early-morning run. So let us navigate you around our favourite corners and introduce you to the delights of this most inviting of cities.

The magazine Monocle covers the world with its network of bureaus in New York, Toronto, Zurich, Hong Kong, Istanbul, Tokyo, and Singapore. It also employs more than 30 dedicated correspondents―in cities from Bangkok to Bogotá, São Paolo to Stockholm―as well as a team of on-the-road reporters based out of its headquarters in London. This team’s deep understanding of cities and all they have to offer has now been compiled in The Monocle Travel Guide Series.

Aus dem Klappentext

Monocle reports from around the globe in print, on radio, and online. As its editors 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.
