That pic looks like La Paz, Bolivia. Entering the city via bus you can get a panoramic view just like that because it's built into the mountains.

Pic related is from the National Geographic insta of La Paz.

NY, Tokyo, Mumbai, London...
Do you want to be seated at a cafe, up close to the action, or at a distance like pic?

Had a look and it seems amazing. Have you been before?

>>1147074
At a distance like in the pic would be really nice

I was there a few weeks ago, acually. Total hell hole; chaotic, criminal, but the views from afar really are mind blowing.

Get to LA and drive up into the hills. That's exactly what you're looking for.

New York:

Panoramic view (horizon is the city skyline): Garret Mountain Reservation, New Jersey (when it's open at night).

Hong Kong:

Victoria Peak, but you have to find your way out of that tourist trap mall that they force you into once you finish your train ride up the mountain.

Watching Montreal from the Mont-Royal is very similar to that.

Colorado has a lot of cities where this is possible.

Pic looks literally exactly like looking at Las Vegas from out in the desert at night.

Go to Vegas OP.

Driving out of the Mojave desert into Vegas is an incredible sight. If you come in past the airforce base at night, it looks exactly like this.

Yes. Done this many times.

That feeling you are describing I get in Shanghai, China.
The population of 24M people in one city all busily rushing about speaking a language i don't understand.. I love to sit back with a coffee and just people watch for hours when I visit that place.

Know the feeling exactly and I love to do that too.

I would say Hong Kong is perfect for that - with having the poor Kowloon side and rich Hong Kong Island as contrast, too.

It's such a great night trip when you commute through the buzzling metropolis and see everything, then take the tram up to Victoria Peak and just reflect on of that. I've visited HKG probably a dozen times and still get goosebumps writing this as it brings back the memory very vividly.

You could always try watching a Wim Wenders movie, try Far Away, So Close. Or The End of Violence.

I'd love to do that. I should be in LA next summer, so I'll definitely try it

My parents worked in Hong Kong for a while- they loved it. I'll definitely visit sometime

Barcelona, some old bunker from civil war on top of a mountain

Kuala Lumpur

That view for me is Toronto from the docks area (it's usually the first pic that comes up in the skyline). I'm not a huge fan of the city, but I often drive there and just think for hours. The sound of the water and the view of the city gives me the feeling that you described.

I was in New York a few weeks ago :( I wish I'd had more time to try something like that. Loved the city so much though.

I have a photo of me similar to that that a girl took in Melbourne.

Yep

Also Hong Kong, you can get the cablecar into the hills and look down on the city and across the bay. Unless it's smoggy and you can't see shit.
