I guess it depends on your definition of a city... I love LP, but I consider it a small town, not a city.

My favorite cities, in alphabetical order:

Bangkok
Hong Kong
Hanoi
Kathmandu
Kuching

For me:

Hong Kong
Chiang Mai
Saigon
Luang Prabang
Kuala Lumpur

If we rule out Luang Prabang as being a town, then Singapore would be the fifth.

I look at these from the point of living in them rather than visiting.

I truly cannot think of any that I did not really and truly enjoy. With the exception of Medan. Surprised no one mentioned Penang. I guess that is technically not a city..

Visiting a city and living there are certainly different. If I were to list the places I'd like to live, there would be some changes from my original list:

Bangkok
Hong Kong
Kuala Lumpur
Kuching
Singapore
