How We Think About Travel
Cities We’ve Written About
City travel rewards the curious. Take France—there’s far more to it than the Eiffel Tower. Wander the cobblestone backstreets, find a small café, and you’ll quickly understand why people keep coming back. Italy works on every sense at once: ancient Roman ruins in the morning, a sun-drenched piazza for people-watching in the afternoon.
Japan holds centuries-old temples and cutting-edge city life within a few city blocks of each other. Spain shifts register constantly—from Barcelona’s bold architecture to Madrid’s late-night tapas culture. And the United States is a study in contrasts: we’ve found as much to write about in the relentless pace of New York as in the quieter, unhurried corners of San Francisco.
