Welcome to today's #TRLT on Incredible Cities. Please greet your host @TheTravelCamel, @LindaPeters64 & @RTWBarefoot. I'm tweeting from a rather hot (108°F/42°C) Southern Nevada, where are you joining us from today?

A1 Great cities have a variety in sights to see, things to do inside & outside, great transportation to the city & within and stunning architecture to keep you wandering. #TRLT @TheTravelCamel @LindaPeters64 @JLipowski @heidiSiefkas @RTWBarefoot @t_jh2009

replying to @t_jh2009 A1) I believe that Incredible Cities tend to have a diverse variety of history, culture, architecture, neighborhoods, open space & cuisine. #TRLT

• How walkable / bikeable is city?
• What percentage of city’s housing is public / social / affordable?
• How integrated/extensive public transport?
• Inside 250 metres, can I walk to grocery store? Drugstore? Bakery? All three?
Satisfied in Vienna's 2. and 6.

A1: Diversity, geology, culture, urban planning, and community create an Incredible City.
Pathways that connect people to the unique pockets of neighbourhoods, green spaces and business districts.

Access to bodies of water also helps.
In #Vienna, there are 4 bodies of water labelled "Danube":
* Danube river
* Danube canal
* new Danube (river channel)
• old Danube (artificial lake), shown here

replying to @t_jh2009 A2) When I first arrived at an Incredible City, I like to get a feel for the layout of the city, so it helps me understand where places are in relationship to each other and its history. #TRLT

A2 We love when we find outdoor art and sculpture gardens on our city visits. Oslo had some great sights. https://t.co/8ss1J2dIl0 #TRLT @TheTravelCamel @JLipowski @VisitNorway @VisitOslo

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @t_jh2009 A1. For me, the most incredible cities are those that make you want to stay, where you can envisage a life beyond the tourist attractions. #TRLT

A2: when I visit an Incredible City, I like to walk; to discover the marvels that connect and inspire a city's pride.

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @TravelAtWill A2. The same things I like to do at home. I want to be able to walk aimlessly, eat well and relax peacefully. I want to watch wildlife in the sun and duck into interesting museums in the rain. #TRLT
