New York or Paris?

Paris if you're American, New York if you're European or South American. -
I don't like big cities. I care more about gorgeous scenery and meeting nice locals;. If I were visiting France, I wouldn't visit Paris; I would visit the countryside, and New York is the last place I would want to visit. I am going to visit Sicily, Italy and maybe Croatia in April.-
Not every part of NYC is "big city" there are parts of NYC that have such small charm and individuality that you feel very warm and at home there... I think most people who "visit" New York see Time Square and the Empire State building and think they've seen NYC....but really they've just seen Mid-Town Manhattan....

Don't listen to that crazy small town girl. Bigger cities have more things to do, less old people, and generally equates to funner times
-
I guess I'm boring
I like fun coastal towns where you party till dawn.

Ne venez pas à Paris, vont à New York. -
I'm Italian. Live in Rome.
I think I'm going to NY, because Paris is near from Italy.
Thank you for listening! :-) -
C'est Paris pour moi. -
I live only a few hours from NYC and used to work there, so I'd pick Paris. I want to go there really bad anyway. -
Try Orient Express. Great Train travel and a great experience. -
Between Paris and New York, I'd choose Rome
-
Which author said "Italians are French in a good mood"?
Jean Cocteau -
As long as oyu have a home to come back to, it really doesn't matter. It is all cake if you have money for security. Either sounds like heaven to me. -
Paris is lovely but I'm surprised with all the people saying "no" to NY.
Ny isn't just tall buildings... this city is so mysterious and wild at night.
I highly recommend the streets of Gotham.
It's a world all itself. -
I guess since I am near Paris I should vote NY? A short trip would be lovely. -
They say Paris is romantic. What do they say about NY? -
New York City has everything in the world in one city. -
Been to both. Love both for different reasons. Paris, for visual arts and a cityscape that evokes the grandeur of the Old World. New York for performing arts and a cityscape that sizzles with the energy of the New World. -
Between New York and Paris, I think I would prefer Santa Barbara, CA
I'm with you, Calais. -
Paris without a doubt. New York has some merits - an energy I've never experienced anywhere else, great pizza, the most interesting people but my goodness, it is very dirty!
Paris has everything: great food, an amazing language, culture, beauty - shall I go on!? -
Neither.........London.
If you are European choose London, if you are American choose London, you know it makes sense. -
- I will choose Paris over NYC. However, but I wouldn't stay there more than a week because I'd rather leave that city travel and see the rest of France.

Neither. Prague.
-
- Prague looks very appealing to me.
What are some features that you like best about it?

Prague:
-
I heard it was awful now due to all the stag parties.
-
@anin
No, that's Riga now. Prague is too expensive for those these days. -
I have been to Riga and yes it is awful for stag parties.
-
-
I love both cities. Is the OP still reading this thread? -
Right now, I'd settle for my own private, tiny desert island. Civilization doesn't appeal to me at all. -
Never been to Paris (yet) but New York is a one of kind city and I love it there very much.
