Time Selects Detroit as One of the World’s Greatest Places to Explore

The City of Detroit has had its fair share of ups and downs — now it’s being recognized a world-acclaimed magazine for something residents and other denizens knew all along.

Time Magazine recently named the City of Detroit as one of the world’s great places in 2022, WXYZ reported.

The magazine released the total list of the 50 greatest places in the world this week, and it includes “50 extraordinary destinations to explore,” according to the article

“Nearly 10 years after Detroit filed for bankruptcy, travelers can now play a role in the city’s vibrant economic recovery by simply driving through. Detroit was recently selected as home of the USA’s first electric-vehicle charging road, solidifying its title once again as the Motor City—but for the modern age,” TIME noted.

The magazine also detailed plans for various food options that are on tap to open in the city, and more things in development.

“Visitors come to Detroit to experience our world-changing music scene, the heartbeat of American innovation, and vibrant culinary possibilities, but they fall in love with the people and the stories of our region,” Visit Detroit President and CEO Claude Molinari said in a statement. “Visit Detroit proudly embraces our role in attracting millions of visitors every year, and now that TIME has named Detroit one of the World’s Greatest Places, we look forward to welcoming even more.”

Other locations noted on the list include Park City, Utah, Miami, San Francisco and Portland, Oregon.
