Most desirable city/region to live in Westeros and Essos

[Eucratides_Megas]

Im guessing the Dragons might be able to drink it , it would be like alcohol to them.

Drunk dragons....? That may explain what happened to Valyria :cheers:

[Lady_Sansa]

sunspear

lannisport

white harbor

winterfell

[Loon Lord]

I've gotta say Dragonstone, it's a nice island with a fortress, awesome architecture and the chamber of the painted table seems awesome

[Djinn]

In DwD:

''Oldtown was as flowery as a perfumed dowager. Lannisport was a milkmaid, fresh and earthy, with woodsmoke in her hair. Kings Landing reeked like some unwashed whore. But White Harbors scent was sharp and salty, and a little fishy too. She smells the way a mermaid ought to smell, Roro said. She smells of the sea.''

[Keirut]

And what about Qarth?

It looked nice to me.

[Lady of Dragonstone]

In Westeros:

Oldtown

Sunspear

Highgarden

The Vale

I prefer a warmer climate, myself. I'm from the Southern U.S. :)

In Essos:

Qarth!

[orys baratheon no.2]

storms end seems nice.winterfell is kewl too. tons of snow.

[Ghost of Groat]

Summer Isles for me. I'd pray all day and night.

[Knight Of Winter]

Braavos. King Daemon Blackfyre summed it up nicely:

Braavos, a merchant-principality with social mobility and no slavery, freedom of religion, a wealthy economy, powerful navy, global trade networks, good infrastructure, conveninent seafood stocks, great defences, nice architecture and artworks, and strategic/well-protected location, (the only drawback is the lack of freshwater without piping).

Its like Medieval/Renaissance Venice and modern day Singapore.

Arya's chapters did a lot to portray Braavos as an interesting, eventful, and above all - lively place to live.

[Guardian of the Lhazareen]

Summer Isles for me. I'd pray all day and night.

:bowdown:

[Guardian of the Lhazareen]

I'd have a summer home in Winterfel just because I love the starks, the sense of security, the hardy northern atmoshphere, culture and climate and the central heating. then I would have a summer home in vase dothrak so I could chill with my dothraki buddies, drink and sleep

[Ser Duncan of Flea Bottom]

I still like White Harbor and Winterfell

I would live in the Vale too, seems very nice there, Gulltown maybe.

[DragonKnight141]

Lanisport do to its wealth and the fact that the weather seems to be fairly mild.

[Lord Reaver]

Somewhere on the Iron Isles. Freedom is worth more than nice weather.

[Morienthar]

Probably the coasts of Dorne for me anyway.

Bravos or even Quarth in Essos.

[Randyll Flowers]

Those Chinatowns didn't exist until the age of imperialism in the late 19th century and the 20th century.

But the idea of ethnic districts is so much older than "chinatown". In the 1500s, Flemish weavers settled in eastern England, so that towns like Colchester had "dutch quarters". The Jewish quarter in Prague dates back to the 13th century.

I reckon somewhere in the Reach would be pretty nice. Temperate, with pleasantly warm summers but not the scorching heat of Dorne, nicely rolling countryside with no pesky Hill tribes, Wildlings or Ironborn Raiders to worry about. All assuming of course that one is born into the lower nobility - enough wealth to relax, not enough to actually be significant!

[FacelessMan21]

Braavos! The comparison to Venice is obvious and the descriptions from Arya's chapters make it sound like a thriving place to be.

[Faydra]

In Westeros: would be nice to live around Lannisport.

In Essos: Bravos

[Arthur Dayne's Honor]

Westeros- Oldtown, Arbor, White Harbor, or Gulltown

Essos- Bravos or Qohor

[Timmon Whitby_109863]

I prefer warm places better than the scorching hot of places like Dorne or slaver's bay and I love the description of Riverrun, especially the godswood. If I could only choose one place it would have to be the Riverlands.
