I would choose the beautiful Antarctica. I've always been fascinated with Earth and it's changes in the past. Antarctica, although extremely hard to navigate to and survive; is still somewhat "pristine" in terms of human footprint. The large icebergs and scenery have to be a stunning sight to see.
That and I love the wildlife up there, especially the Penguins and how they live. I'm pretty sure they're the only animal that next to humans (sometimes) that are monogamous. How they survive the winter & raise their own are testament to their adaptation over millions of years.
Honorable Mention: Cairo, Egypt - Pyramids!!!

Spain. Madrid, Barcelona, whatever. Just Spain. I have never been to Europe but if I ever did go, I'd probably stay in Spain. It's kinda why I'm trying to plan a Euro Trip with a friend of mine for next Summer.

Amsterdam, Holland. Obvious reasons.
Otherwise I'd say Tokyo, Japan. It just sounds so crazy I think I'd love it there.

I've been 3 times to japan, twice to Tokyo (third time was Hiroshima) and it's an exciting city. There's so much to see and so much to do and i can tell the greatest thing ever was the look from our hotel. 38th floor, you feel like on top of the world looking down seeing hundreds of people running around like ants. There are 3 places i really want to visit: Australia, Belize and Guatemala. Australia because i head lots of good things and i want to see "the outback" Belize and Guatemala because of the mayan history in those countries. Oh and Brazil would be also interesting.

Rome, just to soak up the history and culture. Cairo and Giza, see above. Jerusalem, Partially for the history, partially for faith, I say no more.

I want to so bad Either Abbey Road or The Colosseum in Rome, just to see such a historic place in person, and one that's still standing, would be amazing.

Italy, Amsterdam, plus I would love to go across the US.
I have been to Spain, it's the most awesome place for sure. Barcelona and Granada were my favorites. Granada is amazing.

Specifically, I've always liked the look of San Francisco. It's not a city everyone talks about wanting to go to like New York or something, I've always pictured it as a quieter and just generally really nice city. I'd like to see the Golden Gate Bridge, and the cable cars.
Of course, since this is a predominantly US board, someone from there will now tell me how wrong I am, but that's cool. I also have to admit that part of my reasoning for this desire is the fact that two games I have owned have been partially based in "San Francisco", and that has probably made me more interested in the place.
PS. I am not looking to go there for the legendary gay community.

PS. I am not looking to go there for the legendary gay community. I've been to San Francisco a few times when I was a kid. My opinions? It's OK, I suppose. I was pretty young when I went there and memories of the trip are dominated by being smacked around by my father because I dared to spit out a mouthful of potato salad, but that being said... the city is frankly a little boring. Keep in mind, this is from a guy who saw it last when I was 10 and 11, but didn't exactly ring my bell.

San Francisco is nothing special, I was born in San Jose so I may be biased... I don't get excited going to California so much anymore. My family down there doesn't help either, they are spread really thin across the state and majority of them I can't relate to anymore...
I'd love to go to Tokyo or anywhere in Japan in general, I've only seen Narita Airport from a trip to Singapore... and thanks to a friend I've seen Tokyo Tower. That friend lives in Japan and I'd love to hang out with her again.

Most likely Canada. I want to live there, rather badly.

Russia, particularly St. Petersburg. Such an interesting country, and I really want to see it firsthand.
I also want to go to Peru to see Macchu Picchu.

Borneo, Lombok, or Flores Indonesia. Google these three places to see how beautiful they are. I have already been to Bali for my honeymoon. Google Bali as well.
P.S. Going back to Indonesia next May to visit my wife`s family. It will be the fourth time I have been there.
