The city has a tropical climate and inhabited by the Larrakia people.Mindil Beach has some great open-air markets; open from April to October, from sunset till late.5. Isfahan, Iran Located about 340 kms south of Tehran, Isfahan is the third largest city after Tehran. The Zayande River is the heart of Isfahan. The bridges over the river include some of the finest architecture in Isfahan. The bazaars of the city are also popular.6. Lisbon, Portugal Lisbon is a beautiful city no less than Paris or Rome. The capital of Portugal is home to the Gulbenkian, one of the world's great museums, housing a collection of Egyptian, Green, Roman, Islamic, Asian and European art and the Belem tower, an iconic city landmark. 7. Glasgow, Scotland Glasgow, however, arguably has the best music scene in Britain (though Londoners might dispute this) with scores of clubs and concert halls, including the much raved-about Barrowland.Today it is one of Europe's top ten financial centres and home to Scotland's leading business houses. 8. Hoi An, Vietnam Technically not a city, but this seaside heritage spot on Vietnam's Central Coast is such an enchanting contrast to hectic tourist magnet Hanoi that it's worth a mention.The former trading port is known for its historic architecture, a mix of Vietnamese, Japanese, Chinese and European styles.Visitors rave about its fairytale lanterns, Vietnamese silk and custom tailoring -- it is the place to come if you're looking to revamp your wardrobe.9.

Durban, South Africa Perceived to be unsafe, it's not surprising that the city, on the country's eastern coast, isn't exactly first port of call for visitors.But, in large part thanks to its recent stint as World Cup host, tourist numbers are up. Locals rave about their city's year-round sunshine and vibrant, cosmopolitan vibe.Among cities, Durban is home to the highest concentration of Indians outside the subcontinent and it's a blend of African and European cultures too.
