Due to blatant bias, I love Hong Kong the most as that is my home city. I've been there about 4 or 5 times to visit my family there and see the sights, I doubt I've seen all of them.  It's just somewhere that I would love to go to in my spare time. The scenery is wonderful and I just love the whole atmosphere of it. However, it may be a little too busy for my liking if I was to stay there. |

| For the same reasons, I liked Vellore because I lived in one of its suburbs; and I liked Mahabalipuram because I had a fun vacation there. |

Mine is Dubai, I would love to go there someday. I love how it's so modern.
A close second is Tokyo, because of all the exciting things to do there.

I meant Makati, but I guess I mistakenly used the name Manila.

Hehe, Makati is that little jewel found in the center of Metro Manila, of which the great polluted Maynila and the modernising Quezon City are also part.

I totally agree with you. One of our Ministers (or something) from Australia is over in Dubai and when they do news reports about it, they show the beaches and all the modern buildings. I'd love to go there when I'm older.
Tokyo..I am going there this September with my school (YAY!). I can't wait to go.
I'd also love Beijing, Hong Kong, Singapore and Jerusalem. |

David's back from the dead! YAY!
Dubai is cool.
Dhaka is so insanely busy and polluted. Sylhet is cooler, it's up in the hills.
Dubai with Burj Dubai.

That is sooo cool! Other than that I can't really describe how cool Dubai is since its way cooler than cool.

For one thing, they use the Arabic language there.
I don't know why, for some reason it just adds to the moderness of the whole thing. Maybe it's because it's an ancient language being used in a very modern city. I don't know.
