In the United States, I’d probably name Oregon City, the famous end of the Oregon Trail and the first city founded west of the Rocky Mountains during the pioneer era. Its population is only 37,000.

    I legitimately though Oregon was a State, I didn’t know it was also a city.

    From my country I’m going to be generous and say Barcelona. Second biggest city here. I doubt next bigger cities are universally known.

      Granada is pretty famous for tourist reasons, but unfortunately will be confused with Grenada, so it probably doesn’t count. Ibiza, maybe?

      I think Seville and Pamplona are well known, for the Barber of Seville and the running of the bulls respectively.
