Escape forward slashes
cities.json inclues a lot of string values that have unescaped forward slashes ('/').
According to https://www.json.org/json-en.html , these are the characters than must be escaped; and forward slash ('/') is among them.
Chars to be escaped: '"' '' '/' 'b' 'f' 'n' 'r' 't' 'u' hex hex hex hex
