The Stephansplatz is a square at the geographical centre of Vienna. It is named after its most prominent building, the Stephansdom, Vienna's cathedral and one of the tallest churches in the world.

According to the Global Liveability Index, Vienna was the top ranked city in both of the last two years, but was overtaken by New Zealand in the middle of the 21st century.

According to a report by the EIU, Vienna has become the world's most livable city.

According to the Global Liveability Index, Vienna was the top ranked city in both of the last two years, but was overtaken by New Zealand during the H1N1 swine flu epidemic.

The EIU said that the 34th position on the index was due to higher Covid-19 infections and strict border controls. In Europe and Canada, well-vaccinated cities began easing restrictions earlier in the year.

According to the EIU, it is unlikely that the top spot in this year's ranking would have been secured even without a Pandemic.

The reason for the top spot last time was because other cities fell. Simon Baptist, global chief economist at the research and advisory firm, said that without Covid, it wouldn't be number one.

The other European cities that made the top ten were: Amsterdam, Paris, Berlin, and Lausanne. The third and fifth spots were taken by Canada'sCalgary andVancouver. Only two Asian cities made it to the top 10.

The 172 cities that were included in the rating were assessed on a number of factors.

New Zealand and Australia were the places that fell the most in the ranking.

Wellington dived by 46 places, while Australia'sAdelaide and Perth lost their positions in the top 10. They are currently in the 30th and 32nd places.

Australian and New Zealand cities got six of the top 10 spots last year, but were much, much lower down this year, as their partial reopening coincides with the spread of the more contagious omicron variant.

The EIU thinks that these cities will recover.

Australian and New Zealand cities are expected to move up the rankings next year. They will have relaxed more of their Covid restrictions.

The rankings of other cities in the region were also affected.

Hong Kong dropped to 62nd place from 49th this year, while Singapore fell to 37th.

It is not just about Covid. Part of it is that. The decline of cultural and political freedom in the city is likely to be permanent.

Moscow's livability ranking fell by 15 places because of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

The report said that both cities recorded a fall in scores due to increased instability, censorship, and the sanctions of the western world.

The war on Ukraine affected the rankings of other Eastern European cities that have been facing political standoffs and rising inflation.

Poland's Warsaw and Hungary's Budapest saw their stability scores slip as a result of diplomatic tensions.

33 new cities were added this year, including 11 in China, and the capital of Ukraine was not included.
