Which cities really get yours enyzmes and endorphins oozing? Ones that you've never been to and would like to see.
Here's mine.
Cairo, like nothing else on earth
http://www.pbase.com/blazer/image/21459061.jpg
Istanbul..crossroads of civilization
http://mishilo.image.pbase.com/u45/dosseman/upload/29250561.Istanbulviewgalatatowertele1b.jpg
Havana..can you believe this is 90 miles from Florida?
http://mk29.image.pbase.com/u12/meelitamm/upload/19896738.243Havanna.jpg
Calcutta..a city with fabulous texture and staying power
http://www.cs.vu.nl/~martinc/landreis/calcutta.jpg
Lisbon..doesnt everybody want to go to Lisbon? for the men alone.
http://mishami.image.pbase.com/u30/alfalfa/upload/18390684.IMG_1316.jpg
New York City..city that looks like it has hills but not really, many layers(my hometown and the only city on this list I've been to)
http://www.pbase.com/dolf/image/29603679.jpg
Tokyo...science fiction meets reality
http://www.wrotniak.net/gallery/tokyo-02/021009-015-x.jpg
Shanghai...what life in the future must be like
http://sleepdealer.com/shanghai.jpg
Bucharest...I have a softness for the underdog
http://www.unc.edu/depts/slavic/images/Romania-Bucharest.jpg
Budapest..another crossroads
http://mishilo.image.pbase.com/u22/winketj1/upload/10121911.Dsc02099r2.jpg
Buenos Aires...just mesmerizing
http://www.shieldsaroundtheworld.com/origs/P0001150.jpg
Rio de Janeiro...sexy as hell
http://image.pbase.com/u39/kz6yx7/upload/32405672.IMG_6592.JPG
Beirut..the setting is fantastic and Lebanese are quite stunning
http://image.pbase.com/u35/jorge11/upload/31706946.beirut_july2004037.jpg
Fez...Morocco style is alluring
http://mishilo.image.pbase.com/u9/garoessler/upload/11078101.l.jpg
Kiev...I meet so many warm people here and have relatives from Kiev that I must see where they're from.

Sorry, didn't read the first post properly... but

'Being fascinated' by doesn't mean 'never have been there'.

I mean: I've been to Amsterdam, Rome... but only couple of days, in a defined time of the year... that's why the cities still fascinate me: I like to know them better, just because the short visits only showed me details which fascinated me...

I am from NYC and live 1.5 hours away. It never ceases to fascinate me even though I know it like the back of my hand. I wish I had never been there, the adrenaline rush for a first time visitor must be stellar. Madrid and Barcelona
are up there too but I've been to both. I can't wait to return. I dream of retiring there.

My initial request was for cities that people have never been to but hold a burning curiosity for.

Cairo is so exotic to me. Lagos? Hmm sounds like absolute chaos. Not the most friendly city out there.

Tokyo fascinates me because I keep hearing how big it is and I have never been there.

My most fascinating city, however, is definitely New York. I have been to many great cities around the world, but none of them struck me the way Manhattan continues to do each and every time I go back there.

but i think my favourite cities would be the italian ones. because they so encapsulate a period of time i'm fascinated with. i love Rome, Florence, Siena and of course Venice.

Paris - Is there one more glorious, elegant and ultimatey fascinating? Paris screams glory and a rich past from every corner and every building.
London - The REAL capital of the world.
Madrid - Way cooler than Barcelona.
Lisbon - Latin America? Africa? Europe? All of them really! Charming, beautiful and elegant as hell.
Venice - There is only one.
Moscow - The heart of Mother Russia... a grand capital for a grand nation.
Delhi - It's in India... need I say more?
Tokyo - Hustle and bustle!
Montreal - The best of both worlds: European charm and elegance in North America... plus it's a generally sexy city!
