British media and hospitality company, Time Out, has ranked Lagos as the 19th best city to visit in the world.

In the rankings published on its website, Time Out said it drew its conclusion from a survey of more than 20,000 city dwellers around the world, along with its network of editors.

New York City was ranked as the number one city in the world while South Africa’s Cape Town was ranked second in the list that contained 50 cities.

The criteria used to rate the cities include food (quality and affordability), culture, nightlife, how the city makes people feel, strong community vibes, access to green space, historic sites, and much more.

The list reflects cities that are great places to visit and also to live.
