Durban

South African Durban, known as eThekwini in Zulu, has to be one of the continent's most appealing cities, especially after the 2010 World Cup breathed new life into the area by revamping the waterfront; the splendid Moses Mabhida Stadium remains one of Durban's primary attractions to date. Durban moves to the beat of gqom, its own home-grown music genre, which is slowly making its way onto global charts from South Africa's sunny, tropical melting pot of eclectic cultural influences.

Hyderabad

Hyderabad is India's national treasure, full of history, culture, and amazing architecture. The century-old city never ceased to attract visitors from all over the world, with international influences first pouring in with trade merchants in search of aromatic spices, shiny jewellery, and gorgeous pearls. Today, Hyderabad is still known and loved for these goods, and many still travel here from afar to purchase them.

Luang Prabang

Moscow

Moscow is a city of contrasts where the bohemian and the glamorous merge in an idiosyncratic fusion – do not be surprised to find a golden-domed 16th-century church next to an ultra-modern glass skyscraper or a Soviet blockhouse. Here, salty fish eggs (caviar) are washed down with bubbly champagne, and worn-out commuters travel by the elaborately decorated, elegant metro, one of the city's main attractions.
