Paris, France
Paris is a major international city, and one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, drawing over 30 million foreign visitors every year. It is filled with iconic landmarks and a host of other attractions, as well as world famous institutions and public parks. It is also one of the foremost cultural and business centres of the world, with its influence permeating politics, education, entertainment, media, fashion, the arts and science.
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Great cities inspire nicknames that say in a word or two what may take paragraphs to explain. New York is “The Big Apple,” San Francisco is “The City By The Bay” and Rio is Cidade Maravilhosa (Marvelous City). It is an apt description because Rio is unlike any city you have seen – a great metropolis that is also a great resort.
Hong Kong, China
Whether flying into the vast, ultra-modern Chek Lap Kok Airport and being whisked into the city center on the hi-tech, ultra-fast Airport Express, or arriving by boat at the China Ferry Terminal, Hong Kong, with its population of seven million, never fails to impress. You instantly know you’re somewhere special, particularly the first time you lay eyes on the spectacle of the skyscraper-filled island from the Kowloon side.
San Francisco, California
)
San Francisco is unequivocally the most popular, most visited city in the United States. It is the City by the Bay, the city built on rock and roll, the home of bohemians and the Beat Generation, and that of the "flower children" of the Summer of Love and the 60's and 70's counterculture. And this is not just the liberal bastion of America, but that of the world. This is where mayoral contests are more likely to be between Democrats and Greens, rather than Democrats and Republicans.
