Comment: If you are serious about trying to get featured status for this article you will need first to attend to the following:-
- In-line citations: At present, these are almost non-existent - 15 in an article of 5,000 words. Someone has started to put citation tags in the text, but has given up. Dozens more could be added.
- Sources: You need to base the article on reliable sources. Some of yours are dead links, some are promotional websites. I don't know what [11] is. I believe there must be better sources than these.
- Encyclopedic tone: This is generally lacking. Take the "cuisine" section, for example; where is the neutral point of view here? You should be writing a strictly factual article, not one that promotes the city or its facilities.
It might be a good idea to look at other city articles, particularly those like Washington DC which have recently been raised to FA status, to see the general standards of writing, sourcing and referencing that are required in featured articles. You should not be discouraged from attempting to make bring this article to the required standard, but you need to be realistic about what this will involve.
