The eternally beautiful grande dame of European cities, Paris boasts an unrivalled range of world-class visitor attractions. But it never rests on its laurels: several old favourites have been revamped and renewed, while the opening of the spectacular Musee du Quai Branly in autumn 2006 confirmed that no-one does museums quite like the Parisians. Paris is growing too: the building of a vast new museum of contemporary art on the northern outskirts of the city (due to open in the second half of 2008) will breathe new life into a previously neglected area. And the same is happening elsewhere. "Time Out", with its team of Paris-based writers, is uniquely placed to track these changes.
