以下是書中評選的2017年最值得一去的10大城市。

10. Portland, Oregon
波特蘭，俄勒岡

This gem of a town is what all towns should be: friendly and sustainable, with an emphasis on living well.
所有的小鎮都應該像這座風景優美的小鎮一樣：和睦、環保，注重生活品質。

9. Moscow, Russia
莫斯科，俄羅斯

Moscow's new airport and extensive metro line expansions means that getting there and getting around has never been easier. Plus, as it's celebrating its Revolution centennial and becoming host to the 2018 FIFA World Cup, it's bound to pull out all the stops.
莫斯科全新的機場和擴建的地鐵，讓前往那里和在那兒游玩變得前所未有的便利。此外，為了慶祝十月革命一百周年、舉辦2018年世界杯賽事，莫斯科一定正不遺余力地做著準備。

8. Lisbon, Portugal
里斯本，葡萄牙

Portugal is the place to be right now, as it's both cheaper and more underrated than the rest of Europe — despite being equally impressive in terms of sights, culture and cuisine than some of Europe's more well-known destinations, like Barcelona or Rome. Lisbon is one of the best bargains around right now.
葡萄牙是必須馬上去的地方。這里的風景、文化、食物與巴塞羅那、羅馬等旅游勝地一樣令人驚嘆，但與歐洲其他地方相比，這里費用更便宜，而且它的旅游價值被嚴重低估了。目前，里斯本是最物美價廉的旅行地之一。

7. Seoul, South Korea
首爾，韓國

From massive skyscrapers to tiny temples, South Korea's business and cultural capital is the perfect mix of old and new. Next year an aging elevated highway will be transformed into the Skygarden — a beautiful, aerial park.
從摩天大樓到低矮的廟宇，韓國的經濟文化之都是古典與現代的完美結合。更妙的是，一條年代久遠的高架路明年將被改造為美麗的空中花園。

6. Pistoia, Italy
皮斯托亞，意大利

Known as "Little Florence," Pistoia has all of the culture but none of the crowds. In fact, the Tuscan town will become Italy's Capital of Culture in 2017.
皮斯托亞以“小佛羅倫薩”著稱，這里同樣充滿文化氣息，卻沒有佛羅倫薩擁擠的人潮。實際上，2017年托斯卡納鎮將變成意大利的文化之都。

5. Ohrid, Macedonia
奧赫里德，馬其頓

For a slightly more inexpensive trip to Europe, check out the beautiful, lakeside town of Ohrid. Those looking for culture can explore ancient castles and churches, while the outdoorsy can rent boats, hit the beach, or hike and bike in surrounding forests.
想來一次花費便宜點的歐洲之旅，可以考慮美麗的湖邊小鎮奧赫里德。喜歡發現當地文化的人可以探索古代城堡和教堂，戶外活動愛好者可以租船在海邊游覽，或者到周邊的森林遠足或騎行。

4. Merida, Mexico
美利達，墨西哥

Forget Spring Break-y Cancun and the increasingly crowded Tulum, and visit Merida instead. The Mexican city has heaps of cultural offerings, from live music and art shows to Mayan ruins and artifacts. In fact, the city was designated the American Capital of Culture this year.
別去春假（復活節假期）勝地坎昆和越來越擁擠的圖盧姆了，來美利達旅行吧。從現場音樂會、藝術展到瑪雅遺址、手工藝品，這座墨西哥城市充滿了文化氣息。事實上，美利達當選了今年的美洲文化之都。

3. Los Angeles, California
洛杉磯，加利福尼亞

Great food, great beaches, and more museums and theaters than any other city in the US. While none of this is news, the new 2016 Metro expansion and initiatives like Car Free LA has made getting around town easier for non-driving tourists.
美味佳肴，風景優美的海灘，全美最多的博物館和戲院。除了這些原來就有的，2016年新擴建的地鐵和“無車洛杉磯”等倡議讓不開車的游客出行更加方便。

2. Cape Town, South Africa
開普敦，南非

Cape Town is becoming a force to be reckoned with, becoming increasingly more global, with a burgeoning culinary scene. In 2017 it will also become home to the new Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art, the world's largest museum of contemporary African art.
開普敦變得越來越國際化，餐飲業蓬勃發展，正成為一座不可忽視的城市。2017年，這里還將建成世界最大的非洲當代藝術博物館——塞茨非洲當代藝術博物館。

1. Bordeaux, France
波爾多，法國

France's most famous wine region is getting a brand new high-speed rail next year, which will get foodies between vineyards and restaurants even faster. It's the perfect spot for a gastronomic adventure.
法國最著名的葡萄酒產區將在明年開通一條全新的高鐵，讓美食家們能更快地穿梭于葡萄園和餐廳之間。波爾多是一場美食冒險的最佳選擇。
