I noticed that Travel and Leisure listed [Udaipur](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Udaipur) as the number one [best city in the world, 2009](http://www.travelandleisure.com/worldsbest/2009/results.cfm?cat=cities).

Has anyone been there?

I'm amazed that the wiki article on it says it is "very cold" in the winter with minimum temperatures reaching 2.5 C. Where I live (Minnesota, USA) we can go 6 weeks without the daytime high temperature ever getting that warm! 2.5 C in January and I'll be outside in shorts and a T-shirt. 🙂

LOL for me the part with maximum temperature in winter rising to 28.8�C is more impressive ... I live in Belfast - we are already very happy when we cross 20ies in summer for a few hours ... normally we have 14 degrees and rain - all year 🙂

Poor you. Glasgow can get up to 15 (with rain, of course)!

It's about 32 in Z�rich at the moment (well, probably dropped to a more acceptable 28 at this time in the day). But having just had the longest, coldest winter I can remember in 8 years here, I don't really want to complain.

I have to say, I've never heard of Udaipur, and yes, I wonder what they base that on. There must be something in it.

Edit: I wish I looked at the other cities before I butted in! Cape Town? Bangkok? !!! Having said that, Chiang Mai is one of my favourite places. Been there many times.
