[quote=Anonymous]I think an 8 year old would be happy anywhere. So OP, I'd just choose a place you're interested in. My DS loved all forms of city transportation and amazingly would remember details of the LRT in Barcelona, the minibusses in Quebec City, the green city busses in Seville etc etc as an elementary school kid. It isn't just the sights but the challenging of navigating new environments, the language, different payment systems. Even if you don't think they "remember", there are a lot of life skills that are gained. There's also something fun about seeing a place on a map, or looking at a map of the subway stations or the layout of the city, and then actually experiencing it. My DS ended up choosing to study civil engineering in college and I think having spent a lot of time in different cities around the world helped shape his decision. [/quote]
