They are better seen from a height: 10 cities with the best viewing platforms

The city is especially beautiful from a bird's eye view and often opens to us from the other side. It does not matter what is in front of you: the modern metropolis that you are looking at from the observation deck of a skyscraper, or the town with narrow medieval streets, which is located next to the nearest mountain. Here are ten cities from different parts of the world that you can see at your feet, you just need to ride a funicular or take a short walk. And where exactly you should go, Travelask now also will tell.

Jaipur, India: take a walk to Fort Nahargar, which rises on a cliff above the Pink City, and admire how the sunset sun illuminates the buildings made of pinkish stone.

Havana, Cuba: climb the tallest building in the city - Edificio Gómez Vila - to see the sparkling blue bay and colorful houses of the capital.

Bergen, Norway: See Bergen at night with its shining lights in houses and on ships in the harbor, climbing to the highest station of the Fleubanen funicular.

Valparaiso, Chile: watch the moon rise over the mountains and the bay from the terrace of the hotel-restaurant Fauna.

Verona, Italy: climb to the Castle of St. Peter on the funicular and from the terraces located here to see all the charm of a medieval city with its towers and palaces.

Bilbao, Spain: have a picnic on Mount Arksanda, where the funicular can deliver you in just a few minutes.

Hanoi, Vietnam: Take a high-speed elevator to the observation deck of Lotte Center Hanoi and see the city from its glass balconies. Dizziness from the stunning panorama (or maybe from fear) is provided.

New York, USA: go to the Whitney Museum of American Art and see New York from its terrace.

Kiev, Ukraine: visit the St. Andrew’s baroque church, which rises on top of a steep mountain, and see how modern and historic Kiev merges into a single picture.

Cape Town, South Africa: Climb to the top of Mount Lyons Head, which rises 670 meters above one of the most beautiful cities in Africa, and observe here the full moon.
