For me it has to be new york. Whats yours ?

The poll is from cities i have visited. Sorry if you favourite is not on the list..

Notorious97 · 05-01-2011 02:27PM

Dublin......if they make Tallaght its own city then that will be it :pac:

I love New York though, don’t think anywhere really matches it as it is just great atmosphere, whole different type of people to meet each time you go, spot the Irish a mile off with their suitcases heading to Port Authority for the outlets, just a great place to have a holiday.

I like Belfast too, Paris is good but too expensive, and Perth when i was there was good craic.

Dublin & Rome. Would love to go to new york.

m@cc@ · 05-01-2011 02:30PM

Rome or Melbourne. Laughable that you'd include Belfast in there and I've lived there.

Vienna or Budapest but neither are on there

Archeron · 05-01-2011 02:33PM

Pisa and Washington

Biggins · 05-01-2011 02:34PM

Nice, southern France.
Beautiful city. Just bloody wonderful.
The whole place is a work of art alone, old and new.

Local-womanizer · 05-01-2011 02:34PM

I like Edinburgh,hopefully I will like New York,going this year.

I think Dublin is not to bad.

Milan I would love to go to,see the football and just take in the sites.

Endiburgh so far is my favourite city,such a nice atmosphere,lovely places to eat,plenty to see and everyone is so nice there.

Wompa1 · 05-01-2011 02:35PM

It has to be New York but I'd bet Sydney get's a lot because of the people that went there and romanticize the hell out of it because Australia is life experience blah I say, Blah!

D.Q · 05-01-2011 02:35PM

I said Paris myself, great city. Stunning.

Liam Byrne · 05-01-2011 02:35PM

Brisbane for me!

kfallon · 05-01-2011 02:35PM

Am I the only one who just doesn't like cities? When I travel I always end up in small/medium-size towns with people asking "how the hell did you end up here?!"-- In the UK it was Bury, in Ireland it was Mullingar, here it's Flensburg.

Cities are so big and ugly and noisy and expensive and dirty and busy and congested. They're great for a day or two to go somewhere specific, but it would do my head in trying to live in one! Plus, I don't think you get as much of a taste of the culture while living/staying in a big city.

What's the appeal in them?

Wompa1 · 05-01-2011 02:35PM

Also San Diego should be up there instead of LA..LA is a kip

tolosenc · 05-01-2011 02:37PM

Toulouse, Madrid and Vancouver.

You can be lost in the pack. That's what I like about them...I also like the appeal of good gigs, museums, more choice etc.

Not sure I'd settle in one though...

I like to spend a weekend in a city,and just walk about taking in everything. Helps if the city is steep in history and fine architecture mind you.

For longer stays smaller towns are best,you mix easier and its cheaper.

Mullingar I never liked though,sorry

KnifeWRENCH · 05-01-2011 02:38PM

Not too well travelled; I've been to Dublin, London, Paris and Munich. They're all nice (well actually I thought Munich was boring, but I was 13 and so didn't exactly sample the nightlife or anything!)

Would love to go to New York, Amsterdam and Copenhagen at some point.

My favourite city though is Bandar Seri Begawan. Just because it has a cool name.

af_thefragile · 05-01-2011 02:39PM

Cavan!!!!

haha, just kidding, i chose Dublin! :pac:

old_aussie · 05-01-2011 02:39PM

Wollongong.

liah · 05-01-2011 02:40PM

I will say I have only ever loved one city, and that is Edinburgh.

happyoutscan · 05-01-2011 02:40PM

Dublin??? FFS I've seen it all now.

sensibleken · 05-01-2011 02:40PM

Cloud city

I'm going to take you out to Mullingar.

Everyone knows that Derry is the greatest city in the world, I assume that was a given and this is actually about everyones second favourite!

NothingMan · 05-01-2011 02:42PM

From the list it is Rome for me, although I've only been to 12 of the options and all within Europe.

One of my favourite places ever though is Hvar in Croatia, I was only there for a day but it's breath taking. Would go back to Croatia again in a second.
