Tampa is one of the world’s greatest places of 2023. This annual list is done by TIME Magazine. This list highlights the top travel destinations all over the world.
They describe Tampa as “Waterfront Fun” and that is a true statement. Some of the other cities that join Tampa on the list are: Barcelona, Vancouver, Brisbane, Australia and Naples, Italy. Pretty good company to be in, but Tampa is best out of all of them.
Additionally, here is what TIME said about Tampa, “Florida’s city du jour is eager to earn permanent status on travelers’ lists of sunny, accessible escapes worthy of a weekend stay, as a cutting-edge, multi-billion-dollar landmark development project redefines its downtown.”
Finally, we know that we live in paradise, but I am glad that Tampa is named as one of the world’s greatest places.

This Florida City Has Been Named One Of The Best Cities In The South
A Florida city has been named as one of the best cities in the South by Southern Living. We know that the state of Florida have some great cities, but only one is on the list. The list is voted on by the publication’s readers.
There are ten states on the list with four states that have three cities on their list. Texas, Tennessee, North Carolina and Georgia are the states with the most cities. Many of these southern cities you have most likely visited and would probably visit again. I am surprised that more Florida cities aren’t on the list. Driving through Florida there are beautiful cities to visit, but this list didn’t name them. Maybe the publication’s readers will visit more cities in Florida and put them on next year’s list.
When looking at this list I can totally understand the top cities. Southern Living says, “The South’s many metros are destinations that do it all. They’re hubs of art, culture, and cuisine, not to mention athletics and yes, even outdoor adventure.”
Even though one Florida cities made the list of best cities in the South we know Florida has the best cities. Check out the list below.
15 - Orlando
The one Florida city on the list is Orlando. We know that there are many things to do in Orlando. The readers of Southern Living say this is one the best cities in the South.

Charleston is a population tourist destination and a well deserved #1. Southern Living says, “…the vibrant culinary scene, the fantastic shops and boutiques, the coastal breezes blowing in over the Battery–it’s no shock that The Holy City stays at the top of this list year after year.”
