The fast-growing short-break travel market has been fuelled by the "Eurostar experience", making regular trips to the continent a delight. This new Bradt travel guide to Paris, Brussels and Lille by rail is a compact manual to the best each city can offer the short-stay visitor, covering landmark attractions, gourmet restaurants, shopping and many little-explored and even bizarre corners. Additional information is provided on Waterloo station and its surrounding attractions for travellers passing through London. The multitude of tips on making the most of Eurostar services will save the traveller far more than the cover price of this chock-full-of-facts guide and Laurence Phillips' highly personal angle on each city makes for an original and entertaining handbook.
