Nyt. 36 Hours. Monde. 150 Villes de Abu Dhabi À Zurich

Weekend trips to any city, from S o Paulo to Seoul to Sydney, can often be daunting, with too much to do and too little time. Enter 36 Hours World, a roundup of 150 cities across six continents, each tailored for a memorable and feasible 36-hour stay.
