New York City was just named the 5th best large city in America!

Conde Nast Traveler has put out its 35th annual Readers' Choice Awards, with a ranking of the "Best Big Cities in the U.S." There were also lists for best hotels, best spa resorts, best small cities etc. NYC snagged the spot for number 5 on the Best Big Cities list. Here is what they said about it:

New York City buzzes as though it’s perpetually caffeinated (and most of its residents probably are)—packed with people moving, creating, and making the most of every block. After a requisite visit to a few world-class museums (you can never take enough trips to the Met or the Guggenheim), make like a local by tucking into soup dumplings in Chinatown, pizza in Greenwich Village, and steak-frites in Soho, and walking it all off on the High Line; or picnic in Bryant Park. Of course, there are four boroughs beyond Manhattan, and they deserve love, too; stroll over the Brooklyn Bridge for a drink at 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge, or venture out to Long Island City for a day at MoMa PS1. In this town for all seasons, there’s no wrong itinerary.

For the 6th year in a row, Chicago took the #1 spot on the list. Honolulu, San Diego, Nashville, Boston, San Francisco, New Orleans, Washington, D.C., and Seattle were in the rest of the top 10.
