Here are some top cities to visit in the world. Cape Town, South Africa
Cape Town shines at the southern point of the African continent. Explore Table Mountain National Park, which spreads along the Atlantic coast from Signal Hill to Cape Point. At Boulders Beach near Cape Point, share the sand with nearly 3,000 African penguins. Within the national park is Lion's Head peak. Walk up Lion's Head for excellent views of the coast and Robben Island.
Zermatt, Switzerland
This Alpine Swiss city is most famous for the Matterhorn, a huge mountain with one of the highest summits (顶峰) in Europe. In its shadow is tiny Zermatt, a car-free town of just over 5,000 people. While winter is the most popular time for world-class skiing, summer is a great time to hike the surrounding Alps.
Barcelona, Spain
This magical city in the Catalonia region of Spain has everything from grand beaches to Antoni Gaudi's imaginative architecture. Take an hour-long train ride to the mountain of Montserrat and see the amazingly shaped rocks that influenced Gaudi's work.
Prague, Czech Republic
This Eastern European city is the modern capital of the Czech Republic and the historical capital of the Kingdom of Bohemia. Walk across the Charles Bridge and visit the John Lennon Wall to get a sense of the city's quiet revolutionary (革命的) soul. From the unique art of David Cerny — often hidden in plain sight — to the growing counterculture (反主流文化) scene, Prague is full of surprises.
Goreme, Turkey
This city is home to Goreme National Park, an open-air museum and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visit the 10th- and 11th-century cave churches that display rare examples of Byzantine art. Goreme is a popular destination for backpackers — travelers often on months-long trips. The area is also an excellent place to enjoy Turkish food and wine.

Over 100 years ago, German immigrants (移民) first started selling hot dogs at places like Coney Island's Nathan's Famous. This is the place where hot dogs were first sold in America, but then something interesting happened. People began making their own hot dogs, and people of every region put its unique things on the snack. So what are America's best hot dogs?
On our search for America's best hot dogs, we kept an eye out for places with a unique style of hot dogs. We made sure of considering online reviews from locals as well as the quality of the ingredients (作料). We also considered the entire experience, from driving up to the restaurant or stand to placing your order to taking that first bite.
We sorted through dozens of hot dog stands and restaurants in search of the best in America. In order to be included, the vendor needed to have a trademark (商标) dog, with toppings that add something extra. For example, Ben's Chili Bowl in Washington, D. C. doesn't only have a trademark frank (the half-smoke), but it also has a trademark topping (chili). It is thought highly of by locals and professional eaters alike, and eating there is a great experience. For these reasons, it's high on our list.
Sadly, there were some famous stands that didn't_make_the_cut. While the original Nathan's Famous in Coney Island might very well be the most well-known hot dog stand in America, it didn't win a place on our best American hot dog list.
