One of the most renowned American publications, "Time," has included Vienna in its list of "World's Greatest Places of 2023." This is the first time Vienna has made it into the magazine's ranking.
The compilers of the list justified their decision by recognizing the Austrian capital as a "classic, modernized city," which other authoritative sources and rankings have already acknowledged as the most livable city in the world. Norbert Kettner, the Director of the Vienna Tourist Board, commented on this recognition, stating that the city's sustainable management encompasses ecological, economic, and social aspects. The city's future must be shaped for the well-being of its residents and guests, in harmony with the environment rather than at its expense.
