This month’s cover story focuses on the Summer Olympics host, Paris, and 17 of its most unforgettable outdoor experiences. From scenic waterways and open-air pools to historical walking tours and rooftop bars, there are no shortage of ways to enjoy the French capital. Elsewhere, we find how divine gastronomy and spirited religious festivals define Phuket, Thailand’s largest island; discover why Europe’s first wild river national park is Albania's best-kept secret; explore Algeria's landscape of ochre citadels, nomadic peoples and volcanic plateaus; and plan daring itineraries to experience Scotland's wave-rattled northern and western fringes.
