As a short diversion from the world of politics, I was excited to read on Arutz 7 the news that Jerusalem beat London, Paris, and many other prominent cities to earn a ranking at #17 on the list of best tourist cities in the world in this year’s Travel and Leisure Magazine poll.

- Bangkok, Thailand
- Buenos Aires, Argentina
- Chiang Mai, Thailand
- Florence, Italy
- Luang Prabang, Laos
- New York, NY, United States
- Rome, Italy
- San Francisco, CA, United States
