The Most Photogenic Cities

Depending on its characteristics, each city has lovely and unpleasant aspects. However, some cities can take one to a movie set sometimes thanks to their nature or streets. Then, what you need to do is to take out your phone or camera and immortalize such moments. In this article, we will write about the cities that give you more chance than others to capture spectacular shots. 

 

1.Cape Town

Cape Town is virtually a paradise for the nature lovers. It is a must that you climb the Table Mountain, which rises just behind the city with its top flat as if cut by a knife, by cable car and photograph the Atlantic Ocean view. 

 

 

 

If you wish to meet the penguins and immortalize them in your shots, then you should definitely visit the Boulder's Beach. The Cape of Good Hope, we have read about in textbooks, is at a distance of a short car travel to the city, but you would better watch out the curious baboons while taking photographs there. Camps Bay would be the best stop for the sunset photographs. 

 

 

 

2.Florence

Giving rise to an illness like the Stendhal Syndrome because of the picturesqueness of the streets and being the city where Renaissance originated, Florence is one of the beautiful cities of not only Italy but also the Europe. While walking around in the old city town, you can be beamed to the medieval age, look at the statues at Plazza del Signoria with admiration, watch the street vendors at Ponte Vecchio or observe the city from the top at Piazzale Michelangelo at the sunset. 

 

If you still have time after photo shooting at the spectacular streets of the city, do not forget to visit the statue of David at Galleria dell'Accademia. Watching the stylish Italians, walking around as if all of them have stepped out of a fashion catalog, is another amusing activity you can have in Florence. 

 

 

 

 

3.Puerto Natales

Puerto Natales, the humble port city of the Chilean Patagonia, is a marvelous stop for the photographers thanks to its natural beauties. You can join the ship tours and cruise the fjords and watch the glaciers. But, do not forget to spare a few days for the Torres del Paine National Park that is just close by the city. You can do canoing at the Grey Glacier, observe the And Condors flying in the vicinity of Grande Paine, and if you are lucky, you can even see the pumas, the true owners of the park. You can visit the Paine Towers, after which the park is named, following a long and tiresome walking that totally worth the view.
