Fifty years ago, my vote might have been different, but in today's world the choice is pretty clear. Antananarivo.

Never been to either of these and i don't think i'll be planning a trip there any time soon Grin

I vote Baghdad because of it's history (despite all the problems today). And also because i know nothing about Antananarivo (well, it's in Madagascar, there ends my knowledge Tongue)

Baghdad

We'll have 2 ways of voting, basically: what we know today and what we think because we've gone to a city; what we know about History, with a capital "h".
That will be pretty funny.

Baghdad,  Antananarivo has had violence recently,not even close to the same scale obviously but it lacks many things that makes baghdad more interesting.

What's there to see in Kampala? I have absolutely no idea and the Wikipedia page is not very helpful Tongue

I vote for Riyadh, even though i would probably die in those summer temperatures (though i guess that the arid climate helps). Didn't Hash live in Riyadh? or i got that wrong? maybe he can tell us more Cheesy

Neither. Both would be horrible in almost every way. I'm voting for Kampala just because Riyadh is leading.
