I haven't been to many cities, but I would say York as it's just a really nice place to visit

Singapore is literally a city state and is technically a capital city.

Thats what i was thinking, it still is also the capital...

It's nice, but it's not really suited to being a capital, its very small

I think it is Cork in Ireland, but maybe this is why it is also so nice because it isn't a capital city with the classical city center etc. Maybe in Germany it is Cologne or Frankfurt? In the case of Spain it would be Barcelona

Nope, you are wrong!

Without to consider the Capital Berlin and measured by the number of citizen, it is Hamburg with 1,8 millions, Munich comes next with 1,4 millions. Even measured by the area, Hamburg is the second greatest city (755 square kilo metre), at third place, it is Cologne then (405). Would love be in Munich, maybe it comes to this even in this year. :smile:
