One of the reasons we love to travel is because we get to see street art! Sometimes we’ve heard of a particular piece because we’ve seen it on Instagram and actually make an effort to seek it out. But a lot of times we “find” a mural just by walking around and exploring. Listed below are our top picks for Best Street Art Cities.
