A beautiful country's capital is a polluted crime-ridden city. Most buildings are crumbling, making it look like a slum rather than a capital.

1. Guatemala City, Guatemala
One of the world's most dangerous cities, it's not very inviting even if it were safe. It's one of the world's most polluted and boring.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━
2. Mexico City, Mexico
Your trip should begin and end in the capital with Petra, a world-famous historical site. Unless you like filthy, chaotic streets and rundown buildings.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━
3. Amman, Jordan
Venezuela's capital is ugly, but its women are famous for their plastic surgery-enhanced bodies and international beauty pageant success.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━
4. Caracas, Venezuela
As Africa's economic capital, it's growing, but let's hope the new development creates something better than ugly apartment buildings in the world's most expensive city.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━
5. Luanda, Angola
Moldavia's capital is ugly. Decaying Soviet-style apartment buildings dominate the industrial city. Eastern Europe has ugly Soviet-era cities, but a capital should be better.

6. Chisinau, Moldova
With many poor and homeless people (one in five live below the poverty line) and no formal zoning regulations, this city should be the ugliest.

7. Houston, USA
One of the nation's highest crime rates may have contributed, but this is a dirty, rundown brick, concrete, and glass city. Not pretty.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━
8. Detroit, USA
Nature seems to have ignored Brazil's other major city in favor of Rio. São Paulo, known for its dining and shopping, is a concrete jungle despite its popularity.

9. São Paulo, Brazil
Congested highways make cities ugly, but walking down the street is boring.Though Hollywood and the beaches make Los Angeles appealing, it's not the prettiest place on Earth.
