One of the...

One of the city in Europe that I love is Paris.

What's wrong with this sentence?

It should read:

One of the cities in Europe that I love is Paris.

The rule:
The phrase "one of the," should have an object that is plural.
The structure: One of the Noun(plural)

One of the things I like about you is your thoughtfulness.

This is yet another common mistake in English essays. :)
