Which cities MUST be in the list of World 100? [Need your advice]

Which cities MUST be in the list of World 100? [Need your advice]

I am improving travel diary filling for my app for travelers and I decided to add to add list of TOP cities (especially bigger) to visit. But criteria are.. tricky for me.

And I’m quite biased as European. I would really welcome any advice from different travelers, is there any city you miss? Or any which you would say that does not absolutely belong there? I know that it won’t be objective 100% in any case, just want to polish the list a bit..

Btw. The image is my list, recently added Seoul and Osaka, amazing cities 🇯🇵🇰🇷

Thanks for your time if willing to help! The list is below:

Europe (30):
Amsterdam · Athens · Barcelona · Berlin · Brussels · Budapest · Copenhagen · Dublin · Edinburgh · Florence · Helsinki · Krakow · Lisbon · London · Madrid · Marseille · Milan · Moscow · Munich · Oslo · Palma de Mallorca · Paris · Prague · Reykjavik ·
Rome · St. Petersburg · Stockholm · Vienna · Warsaw · Zurich

Asia (34)
Abu Dhabi · Antalya · Bali · Bangkok · Beijing · Colombo · Delhi · Dhaka · Doha · Dubai · Hanoi · Ho Chi Minh City · Hong Kong · Istanbul · Jakarta · Jerusalem · Karachi · Kathmandu · Kuala Lumpur · Makkah · Manila · Mumbai · Osaka · Pattaya · Phuket ·
Riyadh · Seoul · Shanghai · Singapore · Taipei · Tehran · Tel Aviv · Tokyo · Yangon

North America (18)
Boston · Cancún · Chicago · Havana · Honolulu · Las Vegas · Los Angeles · Mexico City · Miami · Montreal · New York City · Punta Cana · Quebec City · San Francisco · Seattle · Toronto · Vancouver · Washington D.C.

South America (6)
Bogotá · Buenos Aires · Lima · Rio de Janeiro · Santiago · São Paulo

Which is the best US National park? Here is my list of visited parks (I am European, so the number is low)

If you would need to recommend only one to someone, which one would it be?

Even with only 14 visited its quite hard for me. I would say Zion or Yellowstone. I don’t really know why exactly but they seem the most epic to me. And Yellowstone is just special, the diversity.. I must go back!

Hello community! I am now thinking about planning a roadtrip to cover as many new countries for me as possible (check my visited countries map below).

Few conditions:
- I have a maximum one month
- Must be countries without wars
- I don’t want to just do very short stops. I know that I won’t be able to deeply explore countries but want to spend few days in each.

My thoughts were about something going from Baltics through Poland and Hungary to Kosovo, Albania and end in Romania. That will be 6 new countries, reasonable distance and all safe.

But maybe something in Asia or Africa could be nice too and I just don’t have good knowledge about that..

The Canary Islands are amazing—very affordable and logistically accessible (especially for Europe). But after visiting all the major ones, I have to say Lanzarote is my favorite, for several reasons:

  • The island is small, so in a week you can explore it in detail without worrying too much about logistics
  • It feels almost otherworldly
  • There aren’t that many tourists outside the main season
  • Because of that, you can find truly hidden gems with barely anyone around (you can on other islands too, but less so)
  • If you have more time, Fuerteventura is just a short trip away (even for a day or two), or La Graciosa

And what will you find on Lanzarote? Volcanoes, white/black/surf beaches, vineyards growing in volcanic ash, new volcanoes, old volcanoes, unique architecture, small and large towns, and incredible views. I recommend November pleasant weather, and it’s between the autumn and Christmas seasons.

Just take a look at the photos - they speak for themselves. And if you would be interested this is our full trip plan (you can just easily copy it on Rdytofly): https://rdytofly.com/public/9408936c-134e-4e6e-bf28-850a9e914d45
