If you could visit any city in the world for 7 days, where would you go?

the 'pay for transportation' part severely limits my choice.

Bratislava (family thing), Istanbul, Shanghai or Ho Chi Minh city.

Mahomet, IL

Probably Paris. I've lived there twice and never tire of it. Still lots left to explore.

But right now I have a hankering for Disney World/Universal Studios, so it might be Orlando.

Prague's a good choice too. Have not been there yet.


Good luck.

I'd go for Venice, Italy.

I was there once (rather a small town just outside Venice) for a scientific conference. It was very enjoyable.

Paris (never been,)
Dubai (never been -sure I could find things to do there)
Rome, although I'll be there this Summer, again finally, although, again for just a day. :-(
How about a nice quiet Greek island instead of a city ?
Plunk me down in Norway,Sweden, Finland, Denmark -I could make a long list of things to do real quick and not cross everything off the list in just a week.
Sidney or Auckland , if it's Winter here.

Better be a 5 star hotle and include meals.
Air fare could easily equal or surpass free lodging.

Yokohama Japan. I spent some time there while in the Army. I would like to take my wife and climb Mt. Fuji.

Paris, and I'll be doing just that to celebrate my 25th anniversary in a couple of months. I've been many times but never tired of the city. I was tempted to choose someplace I haven't been (Hong Kong? Buenos Aires?) but I assumed from the question that I should choose a sure thing.

Now, if I could also choose the date, then choosing Venice or Rio during Carnivale would have to be a serious consideration.

[mrbigstuff]

yeah, if it's a sure thing: Rome

never been: lots of places, including Paris

probably would pick: Paris

Why a CITY?

Because that's where you are most likely to find lodging. Most people live in buildings, and most of those buildings are grouped in to areas we call cities.
That is a RECENT milestone. I just heard LAST WEEK that more people live in cities now than don't, for the first time ever.

This article projects the trend. But I heard it last week.
