In the September Issue

A peek into the September issue. We’re updating travel options from the bustling boulevards of Paris to the pretty porcelein capital of Kohler, Wisconsin. (Really.) This issue takes in town and country, ship and “-stan” — journeys that remind us it’s already time to start making decisions about where to go in 2011.

Our report from Paris is varied and — why not? In Paris, perhaps more than anywhere else in the world, the supply of satisfying, high-quality dining, art, shopping, hotels and sightseeing is constantly growing and seemingly inexhaustable.

Also in September: A special report from Tajikistan; Palermo, the Sicilian city that's brought itself back from peril; golf in Machrihanish, Scotland; a favorite mercado in Madrid; the German expedition ship Hanseatic; American luxury at the Kohler resort in Wisconsin; the one-time gold-rush village of Jacksonville, Oregon; a dining update from Santa Monica in Southern California; what's up in Maui's northern uplands; and a traditional Tajik recipe.
