10 AMAZING CITYSCAPES FORM THE 2017 NAT GEO TRAVEL PHOTOGRAPHER OF THE YEAR!










When people think of travelling they always plan to go to exotic destinations in nature or catching a tan on beautiful white sand beaches, nature is beautiful but the 2017 National Geographic Travel Photographer of the year contest showed us that cities can also be beautiful.

The stunning sunsets, bustling streets and twinkling city lights will blow you away. Aside from being able to get around using public transport which is a lot cheaper, it also gives you a feel for the city and the culture. There are so many stories to tell hidden in the small roads in between the skyscrapers and the bustling crowds of people when you travel. A lot of the best attractions are located in the centre of the city, giving it an upbeat vibe.

These photos below are all from the Cities category of the 2017 National Geographic Travel Photographer of the year contest, enjoy!
