Stockholm has the sexiest men in the world, claims travel site as it picks world's top ten cities for eye-candy

It's official - female travellers looking for the best scenery should head to Stockholm, where they will find the best looking men in the world.

The picturesque city boasts plenty of sights for tourists, and its strapping blond beauties rate highly on the list of unmissable attractions, according to a handy travellers' guide.

Swedish sex-bombs who have got hearts fluttering include the statuesque Alexander Skarsgard from popular vampire series True Blood and the country's finest football export, Freddie Ljungberg.

TOP 10 TOWNS FOR TOTTY Stockholm, Sweden New York City, U.S Amsterdam, Netherlands Lisbon, Portugal Buenos Aires, Argentina Sydney, Australia Madrid, Spain Berlin, Germany Milan, Italy Tel Aviv, Israel

Scandinavian men hit our radars back in tennis player Bjorn Borg's heyday, and it seems they still rule the roost.



Sadly, British men do not get a look in on the website's rundown of the top ten cities with the best looking men, which darts across the globe from Australia to Argentina.

New York City is number two on the hit list for single ladies, Traveler's Digest claims, with suave metropolitan men waiting on every block to give ladies a better view than the one from the top of the Empire State Building.

Next comes Amsterdam, where beautiful boys cycle elegantly between the famous canals, offering a desirable date that is a far cry from the seedy pleasures on offer in the red light district.

The list remains in Europe for the next crop of hotties, with the Latin love-gods from Portuguese capital Lisbon winning the hearts of many a curious female holidaymaker.

Hot or not? Actor and former New York student Josh Hartnett, left, has wowed women across the world but local lad Steve Buscemi does not quite fit the stereotype



Amorous in Amsterdam: Dutch footballer Gregory Van der Wiel is famous for his looks in Holland while Netherlands-born rocker Eddie Van Halen is rather more rough around the edges



Portuguese passion: Cheeky footballer Cristiano Ronaldo is certainly proud of his looks, while manager Jose Mourinho is less famous for his appearance



Boys of Buenos Aires: Actor Ignacio Serricchio is the hot property these days, while former footballer Diego Maradona has rather lost his looks over the years



Next it's off to the sexy city of Buenos Aires, Argentina, for more tall, dark strangers from the home of the tango - the most passionate dance on the planet.

Sydney offers up a different type of fellow at number six, where fun-loving, blond-streaked surfer dudes will be more than happy to take the globe-trotting girls for a stroll on Bondi Beach.

Its back to smouldering sophistication in seventh place, as gorgeous Spanish stallions reap the reward for seducing women over tapas and a glass of red wine.

The fair-haired intellectuals of Germany come next - and where better to meet a handsome man than in while soaking up the nightlife of buzzing Berlin?

Sexy in Sydney: Adopted New Zealander Russell Crowe is now part of Sydney's scenery and has classic Aussie features, unlike Australian playwright Andrew Upton, right, who is married to Cate Blanchett



Men from Madrid: Singer Enrique Iglesias is a typical Spanish heartthrob but football manager Rafa Benitez is more of a niche choice



Babes of Berlin: Formula 1 driver Michael Schumacher, left, has set engines revving but Max Schreck was less successful as Nosferatu



Italian stallions: Model Martin Saints ticks all the boxes but designer Giorgio Armani is not quite as captivating as his designs



Talent in Tel-Aviv: Gorgeous singer Idan Raichel, left, certainly fits the bill, but Uri Geller, right, is less mesmerising



Cheeky Italian stallions flirt their way into the list at number nine, with the cheesy lines and stylish charm of Milan leaving women at their mercy.



Edging into the top ten is Tel-Aviv, the Israeli city that is home to toned, tanned and trendy men who are suitably respectable to take home to your mother.

But what about the Brits?

Have attractive English gentlemen Colin Firth, David Tennant and Jude Law, Welsh lovely Steve Jones and Scottish charmer Ewan MacGregor had no impact at all on hopeful women from outside our fair isles?

Never mind ladies, we'll keep them.

More for us then: British babes Colin Firth, left, and Jude Law have apparently failed to impress overseas
