Better than the standard Fodor's guide with lots of colour pictures, but still very, um, touristy. Best for the older set, first-time visitors, or those with kids. Younger adults won't be satisfied with the typical attractions listed here.

A good blend of history & travel info. Nothing "out of the box" in terms of activities/attractions, but lots of details and helpful information.
