(only beating New York by a mere $310 billion).

Most photographed place: The Guggenheim
Photos have always told stories, but in today's world of cell phone cameras and social media, that story is relayed as data to companies who monitor everything we do. Geotagged data was culled by Sightsmap using a Google-based image sharing software, and can now show us the most photographed places in the world, right down to the landmark. The Winner? The Guggenheim in New York.
景點被拍照次數最多者 :  紐約的古根漢 美術館   利用谷歌實地照相數據統計出.
 
The world's most popular country: Germany
The results of the annual BBC World Country Rating Poll are in, and Germany came out on top as the most positively viewed country in the world among people probably under the age of 85 (at a 59% positivity rating).
最認同與受歡迎國家 :  BBC 民調 出 德國 .
 
The wettest spot on Earth: Mawsynram, India
Rainwise, anyway. In Mawsynram, India, it rains an average of 467.35 inches per year, and with a record of 1000 inches in 1985.
雨量最高是印度 Mawsynram 離孟加拉 不遠     每年平均 467 英吋   1985 還計錄到年雨量  1000 吋
該地也因植物茂盛而開發旅遊
 
居民屋頂要鋪隔音層   否則受不了雨聲
 
The driest spot on Earth: The Atacama Desert
The 600 miles of South America's Atacama desert is the driest place on Earth, no contest.
The Desert sees an average of 4 inches of rain every thousand years. Yes, you read that right.

averaging a total of 4015 daylight hours a year.

Most expensive city to live in: Singapore
The new champion of the world, Singapore has recently beat out Tokyo for the title of "most expensive city" for 2014.
Cars can cost between 4-6 times in Singapore what they cost in the US or UK (for example, a Toyota Prius actually
costs about $150,000.00 there).
居住最昂貴城市是新加坡   買一部車是美國價位的五倍   房地產價位已超越東京
 
Least expensive city to live in: Mumbai, India
At the other end of the spectrum, Mumbai, India, is the cheapest place to live in the world, according to the Worldwide Cost of Living Index 2014. For some perspective, a loaf of bread that would cost $3.36 in Singapore, would only cost $0.91 in Mumbai.
居住最便宜都市在印度孟麥   
 
Country that consumes the most food: United States
I suppose there must be a reason why Americans have a food-related reputation when it comes to other countries:
we eat an average of 3,770 calories a day each.
消耗食物最多 :美國    每人每天吞下 3770 卡路里
 
The world's oldest city: Damascus
There's quite a bit of controversy over which city gets to officially claim the title of "oldest continuously inhabited city."
With evidence of civilization that extends back over 11,000 years, Damascus in Syria is probably the safest bet.
 
Youngest country in the world: South Sudan
The people of South Sudan were formally recognized as an independent country in 2011, making it the youngest country
in the world to-date.
最年青國是成立於 2011 的南蘇丹
 
The world's most visited city: London
After a several-year bout with Bangkok, London has regained its place as the world's most visited city
(according to MasterCard's 2014 Global Destinations City Index). The city sees about 18.69 million
international visitors annually, generating $19.3 billion in revenue.
來訪最多人的都市, 倫敦再次從曼谷奪回寶座   一年一千八百萬旅客帶來可觀的收益.
 
The world's least popular country: Iran
On that same rating scale, Iran has come in dead last (at a 59% negativity rating).
Only 15% of people polled viewed Iran in a positive light.
