Beijing: Sure has changed a lot. The first time I was there was in 1981 when it was like stepping back into the 50s. Now it's like any developed city. In a couple of decades, it might be a great city.

Hong Kong: It's a great city for many things, but it doesn't have much culture. So that nix it for greatness.

London: Spent five days there. Nice place, great museums, good nightlife. Food sucks, but maybe I didn't hit the right places. Kind of humdrum and grey. London is a great city that has seen its day.

Los Angeles: More of an urban sprawl than city.

Montreal: Great bars, great music, beautiful women, lousy economy, dying city.

New York: Haven't spent much time there, but it is the city that everyone compares themselves to. But it also has a dark side.

Toronto: Okay I'm biased, but Toronto has great culture, fantastic food, a thriving economy, famous sports teams, great parks, basically everything that you need. No slums. Toronto is a great city.

San Francisco: This is one of the great cities of the world. Fantastic food, great vistas, people seem nice, decent culture.

A little to much control on live but that's the price to pay for the safety and cleanliness.

Why too much control on life.

The idea that you can find anything in the shops is total BS. A lot of stuff is still banned in Singapore: gum, magazines, books, movies.

If you order a movie from, say amazon.com and the movie has bits that the sensor don't like, they'll take the movie apart, cut out the stuff they don't like. Completely ridiculous.

The local media is pure propaganda.

Internet lines are monitored and censored.

Shanghai is definitely cool. I really like the way they closed off the main avenue to vehicles and turned it into a pedestrian area. Great buildings. M on the Bund has some of the best food in the world.

New York: The modern-day Byzantium. Showcase for the world.

I would of voted for Vancouver. Simply put, the most beautiful, amazing city ever, beats San Fran.

Rome and London have history going for it, Paris has romance and style, and Hong Kong screams prestige and style, along with overcrowdedness.

Sorry to burst your "bigot bubble", Cloud9, but in at least three cities I know of (New York, Vancouver and San Francisco) the gentrification brought on by gays and lesbians moving into neighbourhoods has lead to increased property values. Remember, gay and lesbian couples, on average, have higher incomes than straight couples and, on average, far less child related expenses. And, something you may find surprising, in my experience they make good neighbours. It's a bit of a stereotype but the gay neighbours i've had are generally quiet, friendly and trustworthy.
