Basically, list the Top 5 cities you'd like to visit (locally or internationally), and rate them based on what how much you'd want to go. Include whatever cities you've seen personally or have dreamed about visiting.

It's like the Top 10 Countries you'd like to visit thread but with cities this time.
Hopefully, that'll give us all some ideas about vacations. :)

1.) San Diego (10/10)
Beautiful harbor and beautiful town overall. What can I say? It's clean and pretty upscale, it's well protected (U.S. Naval base lol) and has some pretty freaking awesome sports teams.
The city itself is just wonderful when it comes to everything. Since it's right on the border between Mexico and California, cultures clash. Chinese food, Mexican food, American food, all in one place. A+

2.) London (10/10)
I've heard it rains a lot but who cares? Actually, this is just my personal preference but I think it's a great city full of history and shizz. I'd rate it high on that category then, but since I know a lot less about everything else, I can't rate the city overall. >:(

3.) Rome (11/10 :P)
Like London, everything looks fabulous here. It's a beautiful city, plus all the 'history and shizz'. I'd give it a 10/10 on the 'desire-to-go' list.

4.) Las Vegas (9.5/10)
Casinos and 'fun'. :)
You know what I mean.

5.) New York (10/10)
Notice a trend here? :P
Maybe not, but 3 of the above cities are cultural meccas. I'd like to visit places where cultures collide.
 
- Vancouver (9/10)
I've seen pictures of this city and I think it looks beautiful, especially surrounded by mountains.

- London (9/10)
It's one of the most cultural cities,, and plus it's one of the fashion capitals

- Phuket (9/10)
Very cultural city of both Thai and Chinese. Very beautiful beaches, Chinese shrines, Buddhist temples, and plus the traditional and modern shopping markets.

- Heifei (8/10)
I've come so close to visiting Heifei but never have. It's a very amazing place because the history behind the place. If you know anything about Romance of the Three Kingdom, then you know this place.

- Miami (7/10)
"The Cruise Capital of the World" because of it's ports which is one of the largest in the United States. It's also known for its amazing skyline is ranked third in the United states. It's also a very cultural city which makes it one of my top 5.
 
Rome 10/10
I went there when I was 12 with my school, and *adored* it. It was so beautiful, with so much history and art. Although the trip was lots of fun, I didn't really appreciate the history of the place at the time, so I would love to go back and pay attention for once. ^_^

New York 10/10
I don't know really, I hear lot's about the city and I just think it would be a really cool place to visit. =D

London 8/10
Never been here before, but drove past it a few times. >_> So much goes on there and... I just want to see it really, no particular reason.

Paris 10/10
Blame too many French films for this, but I think that France would be such a beautiful and peaceful place to visit. I've never been to France properly, only drove through it when we went to Rome, but want to go to Paris so badly. >.<

Munich 9/10
Some of my friends did a German exchange with the school, but I never did it because I didn't like the idea of staying at someone I've never met's house. They all said it was brilliant though, especially the Oktoberfest lol. Plus, I can speak the language so what's the point in knowing a language if you're never going to need it?
 
New York City 9/10
I'm going there next month with the choir to do a whole bunch of stuff, and I'm ridiculously excited. We get to be on the Morning Show, work with Broadway stars, go see 'Stomp', go shopping on the site where they filmed 'RENT', sing with a world-renowned gospel choir, and other stuff. It sounds like a fun place, and I love shopping for food/clothes.

Athens 10/10
Being 60% Greek, I want to go there and visit my sisters and see where they get to live. I've always wanted to visit those islands with the white dome homes like on Santorini that are on the hills and you can see the sunset on the harbor each day... kind of romantic, but it would be so hype.

Hefei 8/10
I like, know everything about Romance of the Three Kingdoms (like Bei Bei alluded to), so I think it would be awesome to visit Hefei. I know I'm probably spelling it wrong because of the novel/games, but after seeing all of these things, I think it would be culturally inspiring.

Xi'an 9/10
Same thing as above, only even more history to unearth. It's a beautiful place too, I just wish I knew how to speak Chinese. v _ v

Buenos Aires 9/10
Maybe not Buenos Aires exactly, but at least some cool country in Argentina. I'm fluent in Spanish and did a project on Argentina last year, and the country looks amazing, and the people are gorgeous. I like places with interesting terrain, too.
 
I despise travel, so I don't really want to go anywhere. If I HAD to choose five cities to visit, it'd look like this.

Harrisburg (1/10)
I live a few minutes away.

Philadelphia (1/10)
I live close.

Baltimore (1/10)
I live close.

Washington DC (1/10)
I live close.

Harrisburg (1/10)
Did I say this one already? Oh, darn. I must really want to visit, then. Maybe I'll drive for 5 minutes and check it out.
 
Tokyo - Id absolutely love to go there, Iv always wanted to go ever since I was a nipper, I just want to go raid all the shops and take pictures of everything 8D

Monacco - Grace Kelly married the prince of Monacco & died falling off a cliff, I think it was her anyway, Id just love to go....and of course thes the Monacco grand prix. Id give my left arm to go watch that
