A question for the non-US X-Markers...

[Bugbear]

If I may, I would like to add a bit more European insight.

As a general rule of thumb, Europeans are not overly impressed with North American cities. I have worked in cities in the UK that were old, long before 'Columbus sailed the ocean blue in Fourteen Hundred and Ninety Two'. The foundations of my last house were laid down in the 12th century. We've seen 'modernism' and 'post-modernism' and 'brutalism' and frankly can take it or leave it.

Just being a city isn't good enough - we've got our own thanks.

But the natural beauty - that is where your country scores. And in the end, that is what will impress Europeans and give them something to remember.

Regards

We have ancient cities over here too, Chas. Zia Pueblo comes to mind. Ron might chime in on the Hopi...
