Just the city propers in this comparison, however if you have institutions in the suburbs or satellite cities, then it would be okay to include them as well. That is your call.
This is a hybrid subjective and objective thread. Meaning if you want to post some list that you think is a fact, then do so, but more than likely this one will foster more subjectivity.
Make a case for which city all around has the best cultural institutions. Art galleries, museums, exhibits, educational facilities, cultural centers, visitors centers, information centers, historical sites, longstanding traditions, values (religious institutions), events, festivals, urban city parks, all kinds of things like that. If it pertains to culture, then it belongs here.
Like I mentioned, this is a subjective thread. Meaning no right or wrong answers here. You can choose to take it an objective route, if you know how and what to use for that sort of thing, but really any opinion goes for this one.
I am making this topic to clear out the unneeded discussion in my other thread with these 4 cities. That thread is purely a statistical, informational, data driven, and objective one. No room for subjectivity and argument in there unless it is an argument over one objective statistics to that of another.

Reason: Edited values.
Visitors centers, information centers and values? Those are pretty neat.
Yeah, some cities have really nice ones that leave an impression on people before they even get around to seeing the city. Provide them with information in regards to that city, like transit covered areas, the city's history, where to eat and shop, what areas have entertainment, what sort of people the city is influenced by, major accolades, big highlight points, stuff like that.
As for values, I suppose it is fair to clarify that. What I mean is that if you're a Buddhist, you value going to a temple. So that temple would be apart of your values. I suppose what I mean is the actual institution itself, not so much the two-dimensional belief.
