Two magazines recently listed the best cities to live in. Here are two of the cities listed as " the world's best".

  San Jose,Costa Rica (哥斯達黎加，圣何塞) The city has comfortable weather all year round (15°C to 26°C) . Housing is not very expensive in San Jose. Also,many of the city's older neighbour?hoods are very beautiful and have small hotels and cafes. Beautiful mountains are around the city. Lots of people go sightseeing there every year. But air pollution is a problem in the city centre.

  Hong Kong,China This lively city―once a small village―is today an international business cen?tre. It is an interesting mix of East and West,old and new. Modern tall buildings are next to small temples (廟宇) ，Popular nightclubs are close to tra?ditional teahouses. Busy people fill the streets at all hours of the day. But outside the city,there are parks for walking or relaxing. Hong Kong is famous for its wonderful native dishes. There's also food from Europe* North America,and other parts of Asia.
