Budapest voted one of the best cities in the world, ahead of Dubai!

Change language:

Budapest, the Hungarian capital, has bagged another honourable mention. Time Out, an internationally renowned travel magazine, has ranked the best cities in the world. Budapest was ranked 26th, even ahead of Dubai.

“What makes a city great?” – Time Out asks. “Some would say it’s all about buzzing neighbourhoods, affordable food and drink and a mighty selection of things to do, from art galleries and museums to live music and theatre,” the answer goes. “Others might highlight things like the happiness of its locals, access to green space and strong community vibes,” the travel magazine adds.

The magazine took this and many other factors into account when it asked city dwellers from around the world to tell them what it’s like to live, work and have fun in their hometown. The magazine’s global rankings are the result of the opinions of locals and the input of tourism experts.

  1. The list is absolute garbage. New York City (not state!): total dump. Cape Town: you’ll be lucky to get out alive. London: overpriced, overhyped, unsafe. Etc. Budapest may be small, with atrocious customer service and other annoyances, but it’s affordable, super safe, and has an excellent mass transit system. Oh, and it’s not packed with menacing “new Europeans” loitering around just itching to rob, assault, or rape somebody.

  2. Did the author read the rating? Absolutely non sense is written in the rating. Not true by all means. And here I don’t speak only about Budapest (for me it is one of the best in the World), but about ranking other cities as well.

    Agree with Michael Steiner’s comment.
