What? How can you seriously make that claim? Paris is not ugly, and La Defense is probably the ugliest part of an otherwise beautifully charming city.
Maybe because I lived there ? Sorry but stop to be fooled by the Hollywood propaganda...In France you have more beautiful city : Nice, Grenoble, some parts of Marseilles, Bordeaux, Strasbourg.
I would love to know what criteria was used for "pretty". I do not consider big tall buildings pretty at all. And certainly, in many (if not all) of the cities cited in this article, there are "neighborhood" or areas that are not pretty at all. I'll bet if you looked hard enough you would find a slum of sorts in Venice and Florence and Paris and certainly New York City.
I'm taking a stab here and say it has to be the skylines...Not so much with "height" but the "architecture" of Buildings and how they blend within each other and also with the natural setting.
lol @ the alley way used as a pic of paris and the pic they used for ny.
there are a lot of beautiful cities on that list but i don't agree with the order and some of the pics used could have been waaay better.
i don't know what cities should be number 1-10 but yeah. just my random thoughts.
*edit*
i've been to a few of these cities on the list...off the top i didn't think venice was THAT pretty. no offense to anyone, its a nice city and i had a great time.

I don't understand the point you're trying to make. Obviously there are parts of cities like New York and definitely Paris which are slummy. For as beautiful a city as Paris is, some of the Northern/Eastern burbs are very slummy from what I've heard.
You're not going to find many, if any, cities that have slums of some sort.
While you're grimacing at rough neighborhoods like Hunt's Point or Brixton, others are fawning over the beauty of Greenwich Village or Knightsbridge. I would guess that's what they were looking at when they compiled this list.
