I think we've done this one before, but if so, let's do it again.

1. Sydney, Australia.
2. Prague, Czech.
3. London, England.
 
Only been to Berlin and Frankfort (I don't count Toronto) ... but from what I've read, seen, etc., ... gotta go with Paris, right?
 
       Paris is beyond amazing. But if you thought New York was expensive....
      Sydney's astounding-a combination of London, Chicago, and San Diego. Kinda far away from everything, however.
       I can vouch for Dublin and London. Alice says Venice is tops.

I really enjoy my time in Toronto, but while the city is outside the US, it is far too close to my area to really be counted as such. So...

Beijing, China
Chur, Switzerland

My list is based on places to visit. Chur is one I could easily see living in. In terms of living, I would prefer Shanghai over Beijing.
 
Another vote for London

Had a really good time in Calgary a couple of years ago.

As far as smaller towns go, I really liked Siena, Italy when I visited there.

I'll also throw in Rome, Berlin, Munich, Paris and Amsterdam.

Siena is wonderful. I would love to be there for the horse races at Il Campo.

We spent a week in Paris staying at a friend's place which is literally at the base of the Eiffel Tower. Montmartre, Sacre-Coceur, the Louvre, the Orsay, Les Invalides and it goes on. So much to see and do.

Rome is great also. Only had three days there which isn't enough by a long shot. Meals in Italy are something to experience.
 
Paris is without question the greatest city I've visited. And I must have gone at a good time (Nov. 1999, pre-Euro) because I really didn't find it that expensive.

Where's the love for Tokyo, Venice, Rio?

Been to Venice, didn't care for it much. Of course I got sick while I was there so that might be tempering my opinion of the place.
 
Paris
Barcelona
Praha
The entire Cote d'Azur (Eze, St. Paul de Vence, Cap Ferrat, Villefranche)
