I live in Vienna too and one thing I like in particular is that despite I live in a metropole with its 2 million inhabitants, I can jump on my bike in the summer, ride for twenty minutes to Donau, Vienna's river, and go for a swim, while being in nature. I can't think of any other city that offers what a world city has to offer, and being able to enjoy nature to the extent that I can swim in its river without worrying about pollution. Beat that.

Stockholm, Sweden has the same thing going for it. In the few months of the year you can actually go swimming without freezing to death that is :)

Sydney Australia. I suspect the harbour's beaches are bit warmer than the Donau too.

Most cities in this area, like Zürich, Munich, etc. ?
