Cuáles son los 10 barrios que lideran la tendencia urbana mundial por su cultura, vida nocturna y creatividad
Gastronomía, cultura e innovación son algunos de los aspectos que dan forma a la lista anual de los barrios más cool del mundo, elaborada por Time Out en 2025. La nómina surge del aporte de una red global de expertos locales que identifican los distritos más vibrantes de sus respectivas ciudades.
Además, el proceso considera aspectos como comunidad, calidad de vida, actividades nocturnas y callejeras, y una particular sensación de actualidad.
Los barrios seleccionados representan el alma y el carácter único de cada ciudad, destacándose por su diversidad, el florecimiento de negocios independientes y una marcada inclinación hacia la creatividad y la innovación social.
Jimbōchō, conocido como el refugio predilecto de generaciones de intelectuales en Tokio, conserva su estatus de centro universitario histórico y es considerado el paraíso de los amantes de los libros. El vecindario alberga cerca de 130 librerías de segunda mano, la mayoría alojadas en edificaciones de baja altura con un aire retro, junto a cafeterías tradicionales y restaurantes de curry.
El flujo constante de estudiantes alimenta una energía renovada en el barrio, mientras que nuevos cafés, clubes de música íntimos y librerías independientes añaden capas contemporáneas a su esencia literaria.
Entre las actividades recomendadas se encuentran la visita a librerías como Isseido o Kitazawa, desayunos en el café Sabor, y cenas en locales como Curry Bondy o Sangatsu no Mizu.
La vida nocturna se complementa con cocteles en bares como Cocktail Works Jinbocho y espacios híbridos de arte y coctelería. Para aprovechar al máximo la visita, se sugiere acudir por la mañana al festival anual de libros usados que se celebra en octubre.
Al noreste del centro histórico de Amberes se sitúa Borgerhout, un distrito marcado por la diversidad y la colaboración comunitaria. Llamado “BoHo” por los locales, este barrio compacto reúne comercios turcos y marroquíes, galerías autogestionadas y cafeterías veganas.
El ambiente es inclusivo, impulsado por iniciativas como los “parklets” —espacios sociales surgidos de laboratorios comunitarios— y eventos multitudinarios como la mesa de dos kilómetros realizada en Turnhoutsebaan para celebrar festividades diversas.
Entre los imperdibles destaca el circuito de galerías de arte, tiendas de moda sostenible y un vibrante calendario de eventos que incluye cine al aire libre y festivales de verano.
Borgerhout cobra vida especialmente durante los Borger Nocturne, jornadas en las que las galerías abren hasta tarde y el vecindario exhibe toda su creatividad.
Barra Funda, en São Paulo, combina el legado industrial con una energía creativa palpable. Antiguos almacenes han sido reconvertidos en estudios de arte, cafeterías y bares, muchos con acceso restringido por antiguas puertas metálicas.
El barrio es referente para amantes del arte, la vida nocturna alternativa y la gastronomía actual.
Se recomienda recorrer el Minhocão, desayunar en A Baianeira, visitar la galería Mendes Wood y explorar tiendas como Verniz, dedicada al mobiliario moderno brasileño.
Por la noche, destaca la oferta de bares como Mamãe Bar y el exclusivo Água e Biscoito. Al tiempo que la agenda cultural permanece activa, con exposiciones de artistas contemporáneos y una atmósfera propicia para el surgimiento de nuevas tendencias.
Camberwell sintetiza el espíritu joven, independiente y multicultural del sureste londinense. Su principal atractivo es la variedad de locales gastronómicos en Camberwell Church Street, que van desde restaurantes de cocina kurda hasta panaderías y pubs legendarios.
El barrio cuenta asimismo con espacios artísticos relevantes y una comunidad artística nutrida por la cercana facultad de arte.
Un día típico puede incluir desayunos en Toad Bakery, una visita a la South London Gallery y compras de vinilos en Dash the Henge.
La vida nocturna ofrece alternativas que van desde cervecerías hasta clubes donde la música es protagonista. La programación cultural se expande en otoño gracias a colaboraciones con museos internacionales.
Avondale, ubicado al noroeste de Chicago, es conocido por su tradición polaca y latina, salida a la luz cuando los creativos y familias jóvenes buscaron una alternativa al encarecido Logan Square.
El barrio conserva vestigios de su pasado industrial, reflejados en almacenes y fábricas de ladrillo rojo, mientras que una creciente actividad comercial y de entretenimiento revitaliza la zona. Destacan cafeterías colombianas, panaderías reconocidas y una mezcla de bares, mercados y boutiques con carácter propio.
Un paseo por Milwaukee Avenue revela desde tiendas de discos hasta cafés de temática insólita. La zona es especialmente recomendable en verano, cuando florece la vida al aire libre y las opciones de ocio se multiplican.
Mullae-dong, antes epicentro de la industria metalúrgica de Seúl, ha evolucionado hacia un vibrante enclave artístico. Los talleres aún activos conviven con estudios de diseño, cafeterías, bares y espacios creativos ubicados en fábricas renovadas.
El atractivo principal radica en su ambiente industrial intacto, combinado con una escena artística joven y dinámica.
Entre las actividades se incluyen visitas a galerías, la creación de perfumes artesanales, fotografía en estudios vintage y degustación de vinos naturales. El barrio se anima especialmente durante festivales como Mullae Metal City, dedicado a la música heavy metal y la cultura local.
Ménilmontant, en París, ha sabido mantener su carácter ecléctico y de barrio pese al paso del tiempo. Sus calles adoquinadas y casas de obreros son escenarios de la vida cotidiana parisina, lejos de los museos y monumentos icónicos.
El barrio ofrece bares de precio asequible, librerías comprometidas, arte urbano omnipresente y una explosiva escena gastronómica.
Destaca el ambiente de terrazas en septiembre y el festival de estudios abiertos Ménilmontant, momento en que los artistas locales exponen su trabajo y refuerzan la singularidad creativa del lugar.
Nakatsu, a corta distancia del centro económico de Osaka, sorprende por su aspecto nostálgico y diversidad arquitectónica. Su ambiente tranquilo sirve de telón de fondo para una comunidad multicultural en pleno auge creativo.
Boutiques excéntricas, bares de pie y comedores de experimentación culinaria atraen a residentes y visitantes.
Propuestas como la Osaka Food Lab permiten a jóvenes chefs probar conceptos innovadores, mientras que tiendas y cafeterías locales refuerzan el sentimiento de identidad barrial. La primavera marca el punto álgido de la actividad comunitaria, con eventos que coinciden con la Semana Dorada.
Vallila, anteriormente territorio de trabajadores y conductores de tranvía, se ha convertido en uno de los distritos más atractivos de Helsinki.
Sus viejos talleres y fábricas ahora albergan bares, restaurantes y clubes con un encanto rústico. El corazón del barrio es Puu-Vallila, un conjunto de casas de madera de principios del siglo XX que ofrece un contraste notable con la vida urbana habitual.
Entre los destacados aparecen bares como Pikku-Vallila y salas de conciertos donde la música underground domina.
Las propuestas culturales alcanzan su apogeo durante el festival Konepaja, que convierte una fábrica antigua en un espacio efímero de celebración comunitaria.
En poco más de una década, Labone ha pasado de ser una zona residencial tranquila a un epicentro cultural y de entretenimiento en la capital de Ghana.
La llegada de profesionales creativos y antiguos residentes impulsó la aparición de restaurantes internacionales, bares, galerías y museos de diseño contemporáneo.
El distrito destaca por su activa vida nocturna, con discotecas, clubes y bares bajo la sombra de árboles centenarios.
Para quienes buscan experiencias originales, hay desde talleres de velas aromáticas hasta festivales dedicados al arte y la literatura, haciendo de Labone un referente de la nueva escena urbana ghanesa.

Trump stakes Gaza peace hopes on 21-point plan as Israel, Houthis continue deadly fighting
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
New York, NY – As President Donald Trump’s new peace plan circulates at the United Nations, Israel launched long-range strikes deep inside Yemen, hitting targets more than 2,000 kilometers from home and underscoring how volatile the Middle East remains even as diplomacy plays out in New York.
Trump unveiled a 21-point initiative to end the Gaza war during meetings with Arab leaders on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly this week.
A White House official, speaking on background, told Fox News Digital, «The President underscored his desire to bring fighting in Gaza to an expeditious close. Special envoy Witkoff summarized the U.S. plan for Gaza, including the return of all hostages living and deceased, no further attacks on Qatar, a new dialogue between Israel and Palestinians for peaceful coexistence and more.
«Foreign partners expressed broad agreement that President Trump was the only one who could end the fighting in Gaza and expressed the hope that they could work together with Special Envoy Witkoff to consider the President’s plan as Americans continue to engage with Israeli officials,» the White House official added.
Arab officials told Fox News Digital that, during the meeting, leaders pressed Trump to confirm he would block Israeli annexation of the West Bank, describing the discussion as «productive.»

Speaking at the Concordia Annual Summit in New York, U.S. special envoy for the Middle East Steve Witkoff also described a «very productive» meeting Tuesday between Trump and officials from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, Indonesia and Pakistan.
«We presented what we call the Trump 21-point plan for peace in the Middle East,» Witkoff said. «I think it addresses Israeli concerns as well as concerns of neighbors in the region.»

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, speaking in a recorded UNGA address after being barred from entry to the U.S., also signaled support.
«We declare that we are ready to work with U.S. President Donald Trump and with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and France, the United Nations and all partners to implement the peace plan that was approved in the conference that was held on the 22nd of September, in a way that would lead towards a just peace and regional cooperation,» Abbas said.
Abbas added that the PA is prepared to take over security and governance in Gaza, while Hamas must disarm.
«The dawn of freedom will emerge, and the flag of Palestine will fly high in our skies as a symbol of dignity, steadfastness and being free from the yoke of occupation,» he said. «Palestine is ours. Jerusalem is the jewel of our hearts and our eternal capital. We will not leave our homeland. We will not leave our lands.»
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, before departing for New York, where he is scheduled to address the UNGA Friday, said without directly commenting on the 21-point proposal, «In Washington, I will meet for the fourth time with President Trump, and I will discuss with him the great opportunities our victories have brought, as well as our need to complete the war’s objectives: to return all of our hostages, to defeat Hamas and to expand the circle of peace that has come our way following the historic victory.»

Even as Trump pushed diplomacy in New York, Israel expanded its campaign against Iran-backed militias. The IDF confirmed Thursday it carried out a wide wave of airstrikes against Houthi targets in Sana’a, Yemen, less than 24 hours after a Houthi drone slammed into a hotel in Eilat, wounding 24 people, two of them seriously.
Saudi and Israeli media reported more than 10 strikes during the Houthis’ weekly address, targeting command centers, intelligence headquarters and military compounds. Israeli officials estimate over 50 militants were killed. The IDF said the operation involved dozens of aircraft and long-range refueling, marking Israel’s 15th strike in Yemen since the war began.

Defense Minister Israel Katz said the raids, carried out under the code name Package Delivered, dealt a heavy blow.
«We struck numerous terror targets of the Houthi regime in Sana’a, eliminating dozens of operatives and destroying stockpiles of drones and weapons,» Katz declared. «As I promised yesterday — those who harm us will be harmed sevenfold.»

Trump says Comey ‘placed a cloud over the entire nation’ with Crossfire Hurricane, reacts to indictment
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
EXCLUSIVE: President Trump reacted to the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey, telling Fox News Digital during an exclusive interview that he «placed a cloud over the entire nation» with the bureau’s «Crossfire Hurricane» probe.
Comey, on Thursday evening, was indicted by a grand jury on two counts, alleged false statements within jurisdiction of the legislative branch and obstruction of congressional proceeding.

COMEY INDICTED FOR ALLEGED FALSE STATEMENTS, OBSTRUCTION OF CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDING
«What they did was so terrible and so corrupt,» Trump told Fox News Digital, referring to those involved in the Trump-Russia probe. «We had a great administration, though.»
Former Deputy Assistant Director of Counterintelligence Peter Strzok formally opened the Trump-Russia investigation, known inside the bureau as «Crossfire Hurricane» on July 31, 2016.
Trump fired Comey in May 2017. Days later Special Counsel Robert Mueller was appointed to take over the Crossfire Hurricane probe.
«He is a very corrupt person. He was absolutely a terrible man for what this country stood for,» Trump told Fox News Digital.

«Comey placed a cloud over the entire nation, and actually, the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax made it very difficult,» Trump said. «It could have caused wars.»
Fox News Digital exclusively reported in July that Comey was under criminal investigation by the FBI.
Fox News Digital also exclusively reported that former CIA Director John Brennan is under criminal investigation related to the Trump–Russia probe.
When asked whether Brennan should be charged as well, the president told Fox News Digital: «We’ll have to see what happens.»
«It is up to the Justice Department, but I can tell you, it is a group of people that was very disappointing,» the president said. «This makes Watergate look like peanuts.»
EXCLUSIVE: FBI LAUNCHES CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIONS OF JOHN BRENNAN, JAMES COMEY: DOJ SOURCES
He added: «They tried to destroy our country.»
Comey’s case is being handled by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia.
The indictment alleges that Comey obstructed a congressional investigation into the disclosure of sensitive information in violation of 18 USC 1505.
The indictment also alleges Comey made a false statement when he stated he did not authorize someone at the FBI to be an anonymous source. According to the indictment, that statement was false.
His arraignment is set for 10 a.m. on Oct. 9, in Alexandria Courtroom 600 before District Juge Michael S. Nachmanoff.
«No one is above the law,» Attorney General Pam Bondi said on X. «Today’s indictment reflects this Department of Justice’s commitment to holding those who abuse positions of power accountable for misleading the American people. We will follow the facts in this case.»
FBI Director Kash Patel took to X to say, «Today, your FBI took another step in its promise of full accountability.»
«For far too long, previous corrupt leadership and their enablers weaponized federal law enforcement, damaging once proud institutions and severely eroding public trust,» Patel wrote. «Every day, we continue the fight to earn that trust back, and under my leadership, this FBI will confront the problem head-on. Nowhere was this politicization of law enforcement more blatant than during the Russiagate hoax, a disgraceful chapter in history we continue to investigate and expose.

«Everyone, especially those in positions of power, will be held to account – no matter their perch.»
Meanwhile, after nearly two years, former Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation, which concluded in March 2019, yielded no evidence of criminal conspiracy or coordination between the Trump campaign and Russian officials during the 2016 presidential election.
Shortly after, John Durham was appointed as special counsel to investigate the origins of the «Crossfire Hurricane» probe.

Durham found that the FBI «failed to act» on a «clear warning sign» that the bureau was the «target» of a Clinton-led effort to «manipulate or influence the law enforcement process for political purposes» ahead of the 2016 presidential election.
«The aforementioned facts reflect a rather startling and inexplicable failure to adequately consider and incorporate the Clinton Plan intelligence into the FBI’s investigative decision-making in the Crossfire Hurricane investigation,» Durham’s report states.

«Indeed, had the FBI opened the Crossfire Hurricane investigation as an assessment and, in turn, gathered and analyzed data in concert with the information from the Clinton Plan intelligence, it is likely that the information received would have been examined, at a minimum, with a more critical eye,» the report continued.

Durham, in his report, said the FBI «failed to act on what should have been — when combined with other incontrovertible facts — a clear warning sign that the FBI might then be the target of an effort to manipulate or influence the law enforcement process for political purposes during the 2016 presidential election.»

In an Instagram post on Thursday, Comey acknowledged that he and his family have known for years that there are costs to standing up to President Donald Trump.
«We couldn’t imagine ourselves living any other way,» he said. «We will not live on our knees and you shouldn’t.»
