 Washington, DC
 華盛頓特區(qū)
 

 Rank: 1
 排行：第一名
 Attraction: History in the making
 上榜理由：歷史
 From the Washington Monument and John F. Kennedy Center all the way to Capitol Hill, the vigor of the US’ capital city is just as strong in real life as it is in House of Cards. The year 2015 marks the 150th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s assassination, and a series of special events will be held to commemorate the occasion. Lincoln’s famous top hat, the pistol that fired the deadly shot, and other artifacts from that fateful day will be on display.
 從華盛頓紀(jì)念館起程，經(jīng)過(guò)肯尼迪中心直達(dá)國(guó)會(huì)山。身為美國(guó)的首都，華盛頓無(wú)論是在熱播電視劇《紙牌屋》中，還是在現(xiàn)實(shí)世界中，始終活力四射。2015年恰逢是林肯遇刺150周年，這里將會(huì)舉行一系列的紀(jì)念活動(dòng)。林肯戴過(guò)的標(biāo)志性的帽子，刺客所用的手槍等一系列的文物也將在此期間展出。

Milan, Italy
 意大利，米蘭
 

 Rank: 3
 排行：第三名
 Attraction: A cradle of fine dining and culture
 上榜理由：美食文化
 If you are a gastronome, don’t miss Milan in 2015. Expo 2015 will be held between May and October, and the focus is on food.
 如果你是一枚吃貨，別錯(cuò)過(guò)2015年的米蘭。因?yàn)閺?月起，這里將舉行為期半年的美食博覽會(huì)！
 The 1.1-square-kilometer fairgrounds will be laid out like a classical Roman city, with symmetrical avenues, a canal, and a huge artificial lake surrounded by pavilions. You can explore the food district, watch cooking demos, wander a plaza full of street musicians and dance performers, or indulge in nighttime wine-tasting.
 屆時(shí)，這里將建起一個(gè)占地1.1平方公里的露天會(huì)場(chǎng)，就像古羅馬城市一樣。林蔭道、運(yùn)河、人工湖將把各個(gè)展館連接起來(lái)。美食街，廚藝秀，集市歌手和街頭舞者，以及夜間的品酒會(huì)，都將讓你流連忘返。

Plovdiv, Bulgaria
 普羅夫迪夫，保加利亞
 

 Rank: 6
 排行：第六名
 Attraction: Architectural gems emerge after 800 years
 上榜理由：800年后的建筑瑰寶
 Nestled behind Bulgaria’s dramatic Rhodope Mountains and filled with historical treasures by the thousand, Plovdiv is one of Europe’s most beautiful old towns. In recent years, it was transformed into a spirited modern city with charming cobblestoned streets, delicately painted houses, craft markets and quirky museums.
 背依宏偉壯麗的保加利亞羅多彼山脈，坐擁近千年的歷史，普羅夫迪夫是歐洲最美的歷史名城之一。近年來(lái)，它已演變?yōu)橐蛔�生機(jī)勃勃的現(xiàn)代化的都市，擁有鵝卵石鋪就的道路，精心粉飾的房屋，手工藝品集市以及風(fēng)格奇幻的博物館。
 Colorful landmarks like St Nedelya’s bell tower contrast against Brutalist creations like the central post office. Apart from cultural sites, you can explore the Asen’s Fortress, a Thracian outpost perched above jagged valleys.
 諸如圣內(nèi)德利亞鐘樓這樣色彩斑斕的地標(biāo)性建筑，與野獸派風(fēng)格的中心郵局相映爭(zhēng)輝。除了這樣的人文景觀，你還可以去看看阿森要塞，這是一個(gè)色雷斯人建立的山口前哨站。

Salisbury, UK
 索爾茲伯里平原，英格蘭
 

 Rank: 7
 排行：第七名
 Attraction: The Magna Carta’s 800th anniversary
 上榜理由：大憲章誕生800周年
 For too long Salisbury has been considered a short stop on the way to Stonehenge. But 2015 is set to be the year visitors linger in this city as it marks the 800th anniversary of the Magna Carta, (Latin for “Great Charter”), which limited royal power and established the rights of common people. The highlight for the celebrations will be Salisbury Cathedral, whose Chapter House holds the Magna Carta. A brand new exhibition will launch in the Chapter House, alongside an array of talks, evensongs, and a flower festival.
 長(zhǎng)期以來(lái)，索爾茲伯里只被人們當(dāng)做去巨石陣途中的一個(gè)小站而已。但2015年注定是屬于這個(gè)小站的。因?yàn)榫驮谡��?00年前，限制王權(quán)、建立民權(quán)的大憲章，正是在這里誕生的。慶�；顒�(dòng)的高潮將在索爾茲伯里大教堂舉行，大憲章的原本就收藏在這里的牧師會(huì)禮堂里。這里將舉辦全新的展覽，同時(shí)還會(huì)進(jìn)行一系列的演說(shuō)，晚禱和鮮花慶典。

Chennai, India
 清奈，印度
 

 Rank: 9
 排行：第九名
 Attraction: Discover India’s other megacity
 上榜理由：探索不一樣的大城市
 While travelers rave about Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata, Chennai has always been an overlooked Indian megacity. But in 2015, the opening of the Chennai Metro Rail will make it a worthwhile stop. Chennai Metro Rail is the first integrated mass transit system in India, and it will transform the experience of exploring this humid city. Must-see destinations include: Dravidian temples, institutes for Indian classical dance, British-era fortifications and churches.
 當(dāng)游客們蜂擁前往德里、孟買、加爾各答等“大城市”的時(shí)候，印度第四大城市清奈總是一個(gè)被忽略的角色。幸好金奈鐵路將在2015年通車，這給了我們一個(gè)去那兒玩的很好的理由。清奈鐵路是印度的第一個(gè)大型綜合性交通線路，它將改變游客探尋這座濕熱城市的旅途體驗(yàn)。教授印度傳統(tǒng)舞蹈的德拉威寺廟學(xué)院，還有英國(guó)殖民時(shí)期的堡壘和教堂，都是行程中必不可少的景點(diǎn)。
        愛(ài)好旅行的你，鐘情于以上那個(gè)城市呢？給自己制定一個(gè)計(jì)劃，趁著年輕，勇敢的去看世界吧。
