Who is going to understand the city of Vasco de Gama? Goa functions more or less as a city state. Rhode Island almost does so.

Chicago is up there. It really revolves around Lake Michigan -- a large percentage of the city's population lives within a short distance of the lake. But then you've also got the Chicago river snaking through downtown. You can't escape the water in Chicago, and the water is generally beautiful.

Absolutely! Definitely up there in the top positions, but I leave the pictures for some local to post.

As a scenery, yes, but are the cities anything more but boring suburbia? Hardly.
