| 50 reasons London is the world’s greatest city Posted: 13 Nov 2012 01:09 AM PST The world has spoken. London is the most popular city on the planet. Here are a few reasons why Article Page With apologies to Elvis Presley, 16.9 million London fans can't be wrong.

| How Spain is trying to save its tourism industry Posted: 13 Nov 2012 12:02 AM PST Russians and other international travelers are responding to Spain's tourism facelift, and could lift it out of trouble Article Page "I saw a great sign outside a Spanish bar," says Alex Bramwell, a resident of Las Palmas, Spain. "It said, 'Customers needed. No experience necessary.'" That is, for many, a joke that gets rather too close to the truth for comfort. The tourism industry has not been sheltered from Spain's economic meltdown over the last few years. But there are signs that the country is trying once again to become a top fixture in vacationer destinations.

| 7 best eat-in wine shops in Paris Posted: 12 Nov 2012 11:50 PM PST The rise of the cave à manger is a thirst-quenching, palate-sating delight. Here's why Article Page In Paris, some of the best places to buy wine are also the best places to eat. Going strong for several years now, the "cave à manger" (eat-in wine shops) trend in Paris shows no sign of slowing. Unlike traditional restaurants, which add a hefty markup to wines, these shops charge only a "droit de bouchon" (or corkage, though to be clear, this is not a BYO situation, you have to buy "their" wine).

| Cafe culture: Amsterdam's 7 coolest hangouts Posted: 12 Nov 2012 10:49 PM PST Nobody does it like the Dutch: Whether it's for late-night snacks or relaxing in the afternoon, we reveal where the locals like Article Page If you've been to the capital of the Netherlands, you've seen those joints -- the ones we want to avoid. Overpriced big plaza cafés packed with loud tourists and travelers -- easy to find, but nothing to do with the real charm of Amsterdam. If you want to meet "Amsterdammers" and experience the city's café culture you have to look beyond the ubiquitous coffee shops and English pubs. Think not miserable potheads and trustifarians; instead we're on a quest for the city's easygoing waterside terraces, singing bartenders (no, really) and high-class cocktail bars.

| Swiss gold: How to see Geneva on a shoestring Posted: 12 Nov 2012 08:49 PM PST United Nations of expensive? Not so much when you follow our footsteps round the great Swiss city Article Page If you think you need to break into the underground vaults of a Swiss bank to enjoy yourself in Geneva, think again. Sure, a city where couture-clad jet-setters tool around in luxury cars and shop in high-end boutiques, and which is consistently ranked among the most expensive in the world, might be off-putting to the less well-heeled among us. But you don't have to be Croesus to really get a feel for Geneva. Au contraire: simplicity is the name of the game here, and as these experiences suggest, there's no banking secret involved.
