\u201cBeyond the beach, Adelaide has rolling hills lush with high-quality grapes, making it the country\u2019s wine capital,\u201d the magazine, published by Cond\u00e9 Nast, wrote<\/a>. \u201cWhen not sipping an Australian [cabernet], nature lovers can spot koalas and kangaroos on a hike in the Adelaide Hills.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Architectural Digest based its list of beautiful cities on factors such as architecture, cultural treasures, historical significance and natural beauty, noting that “the best cities provide something unique that cannot be found elsewhere.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In second spot was Tallinn in Estonia, renowned for its UNESCO World Heritage-listed Old Town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTallinn is one of the most well-preserved medieval cities in the world,\u201d said Architectural Digest. “It\u2019s not just a church or two that are still intact, but an extraordinary portion of Tallinn\u2019s centuries-old layout, including building plots, winding cobblestone streets, defense towers and large sections of the wall that encircles this architecturally rich city.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Portsmouth, the second-largest town on the Caribbean island of Dominica, secured third place, while San Miguel de Allende in Mexico followed, with Architectural Digest highlighting its art festivals, galleries and exceptional food scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
