Almost every city in the world has its own energy that comes directly from its people and their everyday activities, people constantly move from one location to another, some are interested in a quick visit around the city, and some move out to stay and be part of the vibrant energy the city has.
Some cities seem like they never take a break, numerous examples can pop into one’s mind when reading this, which makes it difficult to rank the number one busiest city in the world. Some might think it’s New York, and some think it’s New Delhi or Beijing or Tokyo, and maybe it’s Cairo for others.
With that being said, the busiest city in the world can be ranked based on a number of standards which are the following: First is the population, the second one is the average working hours, followed by the average hours of sleep, and then by the number of gyms, universities, entrepreneurs, and attractions.
What Are The Busiest Capitals In The World?

Beijing- Sixth Busiest City

Given the size of Beijing, there are only 125 places to work out in the city, which is a relatively small number of gyms and fitness centers. There are only five days of paid annual leave for Beijing residents, who work an average of 2,096 hours per year.
Cities Which Work The Most

London, England, ranks highest among European cities when it comes to requiring employees to work longer hours. London's workers officially put in more hours than any other European city, an average of 2,003 hours per year.
There are plenty of other cities and capitals that have high levels of traffic jams and working hours and others that are well rested with the least amount of working hours and the maximum sleeping hours.
These factors must be taken into consideration by any person willing to move out from their city to another. Every individual based on their personality has access to such information and can choose the city that will contribute positively to their lifestyle and create a well-balanced life.
