World’s Cities Icons Set

Last Updated on August 22, 2026 by Editorial Team

An amazing icons set with 10 of the most vivid and mesmerizing cities in the world. The set contains two graphical versions (line icons and stamps icons) and comes in various formats (.AI, .EPS, .SVG, .PNG).

Each city is represented by at least one visual symbol:

  • Barcelona: Sagrada Familia
  • New York: Statue of Liberty and Brooklyn Bridge
  • Paris: Eiffel Tower
  • Beijing: Temple of Heaven
  • London: London Eye and Big Ben
  • Rome: Colosseum
  • Agra: Taj Mahal
  • Moscow: St. Basil’s Cathedral
  • Rio de Janeiro: Christ the Redeemer – Art Deco statue of Jesus Christ
  • Sydney: Sydney Opera House

Crafted and shared by Agente Studio.

What makes this particular version of the set so charming is the postage stamp treatment. Each city landmark sits inside a perforated stamp border, printed in a single saturated color with the skyline or monument rendered in a lighter linear tone against it.

Beijing gets a violet stamp with the Temple of Heaven, New York a deep blue one with the Statue of Liberty and Brooklyn Bridge, Rome a burnt orange stamp built around the Colosseum’s stacked arches.

Paris arrives in bubblegum pink with the Eiffel Tower, Agra glows amber around the Taj Mahal, Barcelona’s purple stamp traces the spires of the Sagrada Familia, Sydney is grass green with the Opera House shells, Moscow is magenta with St. Basil’s onion domes, and Rio’s sky blue stamp frames Christ the Redeemer over Sugarloaf Mountain.

Each city name is set in small caps along the bottom edge of its stamp, so the icon doubles as a tiny labeled postcard rather than an abstract symbol.

That stamp conceit is what separates this graphic style from a typical flat icon pack. The dashed perforation edge, the thick white border, and the single-hue fill inside each frame all echo real vintage postage, which gives the whole set a collectible, travel-journal feel rather than a purely utilitarian one.

It reads well anywhere you want to suggest movement between places: travel agency websites, airline or tourism landing pages, city guide apps, luggage and travel gear branding, passport-stamp style loyalty programs, or a blog series about world capitals.

Because every stamp is a self-contained color block, the icons also work nicely as a grid or scattered collage on a poster, a travel-themed social media carousel, or the cover of a destination-focused newsletter.

The line-icon version mentioned in the vector files gives you a lighter, monochrome alternative when a stamp’s boldness is too much, so you can switch between the two depending on whether you need a hero graphic or a small inline marker next to a city name.

Adjusting the Stamp Colors and Layout

Since each stamp uses just two tones, a solid background and a lighter linework color, recoloring is straightforward in any vector editor.

Select the background shape and swap it for a color from your own palette, then adjust the linework to a tint or shade of that same hue so the contrast stays legible.

If you want a more uniform set instead of the current rainbow of hues, pick one accent color and apply it across every stamp, keeping only the white perforated border and label text consistent.

The dashed stamp edge and the illustration inside are typically separate groups, so you can also strip the postage frame away entirely and use the bare skyline icon on its own when you need a simpler mark for a favicon, app icon, or map pin.

For layouts, try arranging the stamps in a loose, slightly rotated scatter to mimic a real stamp collection or travel scrapbook page, rather than lining them up in a strict grid.

Pairing these with a handwritten or typewriter-style typeface for headings reinforces the postcard and passport mood, while a clean sans-serif keeps things closer to a modern travel app interface.

Because the ten cities span several continents, the set works well split apart too. Pull just the ones relevant to a specific itinerary, region-focused campaign, or client destination rather than displaying the whole collection at once.
