Paris & Abu Dhabi.
Paris, city of lights, city that never sleeps. wherever u go, u'll feel that u've been surrounded by rich heritage & glourious history. plenty of entertainment that suits both young & adults, and when u visit places like le louvre, u'd feel that u jumped 100's of years back into history. clean city, the nice afternoon walking up & down les champs-elysees can't be truly missed, sitting in one of those side-walk cafe, enjoying the famous french cappuccino along some delicious hot croisants.
love the city very much, which unfourtunatly can't praise the parisiennes and their attitude as much.
Abu Dhabi, clean to the point of obsession, well organized and planned city. greenery everywhere, huge well-built bridges & tunnles, well paved highways and internal roads, nice friendly people, beautiful long cournich, although i don't understand why the towers along cournich have certain hight, except for baynunah tower.

qatar is no where near paris at all! qatar needs more density and as far as i know qatar doesnt have its own history unless you count arab history as a whole. but still, with the new projects going on qatar should look just like dubai within 10 years. it will never be a paris though.....

Lets see..... London is too cramped but I like its diversity and history...... Paris is nice and clean but the people, the pickpocketers, and the metro are annoying and disappointing...... New York City is nice....... I love Riyadh and the Saudi Eastern Province!......Dubai is nice.....Vancouver is the most beautiful place on earth.... Manama is nice but small..... Makkah is nice......But above all, I think Madinah is the best simply because I feel a sort of peace that I feel no where else.

in comparison between Makkah & Madinah, my older brother have told me that during his pilgrimage year, he found the people of Makkah to be the worst people he ever met, and being a world traveler himslef he sure met alot, in his life.they're so rude, he adds, and real mean, especially to poor & helpless pilgrimages. he believes that this bad nature of people of Makkah was acquired through the ages, since the time they forced Prophet Mohamed (pbuh) to flee the city, so it became more like a curse.
people of Madinah, on the other hand, he says, are very friendly, kind & helpfull. apparently this was a result of the good & warm welcome & support they extended to the Prophet when he landed on Madinah.

I dont understand what doha bashing has to do with this thread. It never said anything about comparing doha to other cities .. just thought it was a bit too early in the posts for the thread to take a different direction.
I think this should be in the general forum coz its interesting and more ppl will take part.
My best city !! hmm !!
I was most amazed by Tokyo.
I'd like to live in San Diego.
San Fran is also a very nice mix of american/european kinda city.
The most relaxing and chill place is Ibiza.
Tought walla !!
I'd have to say the best city Ive been to is Ibiza Town coz of its nice chill and relaxing vibe you get from the city. Plz amazing sea food !

Buenos Aires - Argentina. With more than 12.000.000 inhabitants is the most glamorous city in South America. It has a combination of spanish and italian architecture and an intense night life, it's a very happening city, but what I liked the most was its people who are very warm, kind and extremely good looking.

lol.. you should read more carefully. This isn't the first time you've jumped to conclusions.
I have no favourite city. They all have flaws.
