The city in Africa became the "best in the world" thanks to its stunning beaches
How can you determine the best city in the world that tourists will definitely want to visit? For example, ask how much the locals like it.
The Express writes that 97% of Cape Town residents said in a survey that they liked their city. In general, the city topped the ranking of the 50 best cities in the world in 2025 according to Time Out.
The advantages of Cape Town are its beauty, richness of historical sites, and richness of culture. The top 5 also includes Bangkok, New York, Melbourne, and London.
To compile the list, Time Out surveyed more than 18,500 city dwellers. They were asked to share a variety of experiences about their city, from local food to nightlife, culture to accessibility and overall impression.

The city is one of the three capitals of South Africa, and one of its most famous attractions is Table Mountain. It is located in the center of Cape Town and offers many hiking routes and incredible views in all directions. You can get to the top by cable car and then wander around the Table Mountain National Park. However, experienced tourists advise to go for such a walk early in the morning to avoid crowds of tourists.
