Name your city (and state/country) and what it is most well known for. For example, I live in Berkeley, California (US). Most well known for UC Berkeley, obviously. (it's ranked as the #1 public university in the nation)
hmm i'll put two cities since Burnaby is part of Greater Vancouver.. Burnaby: JOE SAKIC WENT TO MY SCHOOL! iono if that's a famous fact, but it's still pretty awesome. oh and so did Jade Kwan. Vancouver: 2010 Winter Olympics 2010, baby!
Sydney Australia famous for the all the bush fires in summer <_<, also the Opera House n Harbour Bridge Centre Point Tower the Year 2000 Olympic Games and Aaron Kwok's 1999 scandal at Star City Casino -evil
Hmm. I wouldn't call the following facts FAMOUS, but more like interesting facts: City: New York (NY, U.S.) One of the Macy's (a shopping center) there is the world's LARGEST store. The New York Botanical Garden is home to the LARGEST Victorian glasshouse, the Enid. In late 1840s, thousands of pigs were released to roam Wall Street as a substitution for an early sanitation system. New York is called the Big Apple because a sportswriter named one of the columns in the paper he wrote in "Around the Big Apple," after hearing some stablehands refer NYC racetracks as "the Big Apple" Alexander Hamilton and Robert Fulton were buried here.
