RELEASED JANUARY 2012
What's the same about the new edition? Discerning world traveler Patricia Schultz hand picks the 1,000 most astonishing destinations in the world and brings them to life in lively, evocative prose that reveals why the place is so wonderful. Best time information and the essential contact information will help you get there. Every entry has been reviewed and assessed to make sure it's still worthy of inclusion in the book, then rewritten. Updated and brand new information, including restaurants, hotels, museums, and festivals have been woven into entries from the previous book.
With 2,000 entirely new entries and more than 50 percent new material woven into the revised entries, 1,000 places has been totally renovated in this top-to-bottom revision. The book's focus is on the way we travel now, emphasising travel experiences, not just single sites - so the new edition include Italy's Amalfi Coast (not just the town of Positano) and La Ruta Maya in Mexico (not just Chichen Itza). Other new destinations include emerging travel markets (Croatia, Colombia) and 28 countries not included in the first edition.
1100 pages.
