That's because urban chic has always started in the street, where people from all kinds of classes and backgrounds can mingle with each other on the way to work, school, home and entertainment venues.
This year, Time Out -- the media and hospitality brand that publishes local guides to some of the world's most interesting cities -- has released its second annual roundup of the world's coolest streets.
More than a neighborhood, a single street can define a city's culture.
"In most of the world, pre-pandemic life has returned with a bang. With people excitedly making plans and going out in their own cities and on city breaks again," James Manning, travel editor for Time Out, said in a statement. "Our list of the Coolest Streets in the World takes in the key thoroughfares which clued-up locals -- including our expert editors and contributors -- recommend strolling down right now.""
This year's list has 33 streets, three more than the inaugural roundup in 2021. It also includes several new cities, including Taipei, Mumbai, Athens and Accra.
