Monocle, the magazine that covers urbanism and city design like no other, knows the hidden gems in all major cities. It also knows where to take an ambassador for breakfast, a busy partner for a late cocktail, or where to find a sharp-witted concierge at unholy hours. Its deep understanding of cities and everything they have to offer has now been compiled in the Monocle Travel Guide Series. The series was launched in spring 2015 with editions for London, New York, Tokyo, and Hong Kong. This fall, Singapore, Istanbul, Madrid, and Portland, Oregon, will be added. These beautiful, informative books reveal the Monocle team's favorite spots, from the ideal route for an early morning run to the best places for independent retail. They are aimed at people who do not want to be tourists but wish to feel like locals while traveling – books for those who want to experience culture.
