Are you tired of the boring day to day aspects of life? Do you want something new and exciting? Then these are the ten places you want to live. They are all places that have come from fiction and each one has a special something to make life interesting and enjoyable. This list is in no particular order.
Reason for living here: King Arthur lives here and you can joust all day long!
Camelot comes from legendary British tales of King Arthur - who may, or may not, have been real. In Camelot we find Arthur’s famous round table where his knights get to sit around like equals and have a few beers while they discuss their latest knightly conquests. Camelot is surrounded by forests and rivers, so you can get in a spot of fishing and hunting if it floats your boat. Justice and peace reign in Camelot. Oh - and the ultra-hot (in a medieval way) Guinevere lives there too!
Reason for living here: No need to work, food a plenty, and everyone is naked!
Many believe Eden was a real place, and just as many don’t. But the fact is, if it were real, this would be the spot to settle down! The Garden of Eden is full of trees bent over with fruit and all the animals are friendly. Not only do you get to eat until you can eat no more, but you can ride lions and tigers all afternoon! Seriously - it doesn’t get more awesome than that. Just watch out for the snake!
Reason for living here: It is a City of Gold!
El Dorado is a legendary city of gold. It is seen as a type of “Holy Grail” for each man - the thing you most seek in life is found here. Basically, whatever your fetish, you will not leave unsatisfied from this place. Better yet, it is somewhere in South America, so it shouldn’t cost you much to get there!
Reason for living here: It rains cheese!
Cockaigne is a land of contraries, where all the restrictions of society are defied (abbots beaten by their monks), sexual liberty is open (nuns flipped over to show their bottoms), and food is plentiful (skies that rain cheeses). This is a place where idleness and gluttony are the principal occupations - who doesn’t want that?
Reason for living here: You never grow old
Beimeni is a legendary city - said to be home to the fountain of youth! It is also a land of great wealth - an earthly paradise. Legend has it that Juan Ponce de León discovered Florida while he was looking for Beimeni and the fountain of youth. Kind of ironic I guess.
Reason for living here: Battle and feast daily
Valhalla, the “afterworld” of the Vikings is a place where all the dead warriors and gods live. Now - you have to be dead to go there, but it is worth it! Every day you get to fight against giants! But wait - it gets better. At the end of every battle you get to feast on the cosmic boar and drink beer all night long! When you finish eating the boar (Sæhrímnir) he is brought back to life so you can start eating him all over again! Oh - and the Valkyries (hot goddesses) live here too - so you are not likely to get bored.
Reason for living here: If it’s good enough for Jesus, it’s good enough for us!
Avalon is the place that King Arthur ended up before he died. It is also the place where King Arthur’s sword (Excalibur) was made. In Avalon you can get the best apples in the world - and presumably pretty damned good cider too. When Jesus came back to life, he is said to have visited Avalon with Joseph of Arimathea (the guy who gave Jesus his tomb). I told you the apples were good.
Reason for living here: It’s a utopia
Shangri-La is a mystical valley in the Himalayas. It is a permanently happy land, isolated from the outside world. The people who live at Shangri-La are almost immortal, living years beyond the normal lifespan. The place is so popular that the Nazis sent an expedition out to find it in 1938. Fortunately they didn’t find it!
Reason for living here: Lots of gold and diamonds - and it’s magic!
Most of the descriptions of the City of the Caesars talks about the city as a prosperous and rich city full of gold, silver and diamonds. It is described as an enchanted city that appears in certain moments. At least one description says it located in between two mountains one of gold and another of diamonds.
Reason for living here: Orgies
Ys is a mythical city that was built on the coast of Brittany and later swallowed by the ocean. Ys was built below sea level by Gradlon, King of Cornouaille, upon the request of his daughter Dahut, who loved the sea. It was the most beautiful and impressive city in the world. Unfortunately for the King (but fortunately for those who live there), Dahut was a bad girl and she started throwing wild parties and orgies.

传说中最令人向往的十个地方 [Top List]
你厌倦了日复一日的乏味生活吗？你想来点新鲜刺激吗？下面是你最想生活其中的十个地方。他们都来自传说，每个都因其独特之处，而让生活变得有趣而又享受。排名不分先后
10
卡姆洛特
向往理由：阿瑟王生活在那，你可以整天骑马比武！
卡姆洛特来自英国神话传说《阿瑟王》——也许真有其人，也许从不存在。在卡姆洛特，有阿瑟王最有名的圆桌，他的骑士们围坐在圆桌旁，以示平等，喝着啤酒讨论着最近的胜利。卡姆洛特四周环绕着森林、河流，你可划着船去钓钓鱼。公正与和平统治着卡姆洛特。噢－超级热辣的（以中世纪眼光）桂尼维亚也生活在那！
9
伊甸园
向往理由：不用工作，食物充足，每个人都是裸体的！
很多人认为伊甸园确实存在，很多人也不这么认为。但事实上是，如果真有，那真是适于定居！伊甸园里到处都是长满果实的果树，都被压弯了腰，动物也非常友好。整个下午你不仅仅可以吃到肚圆，还可以骑骑狮子、老虎，而且不用感到害怕。只是要当心蛇！
8、
埃尔多拉多
向往理由：它是黄金之城！
埃尔多拉多是传说中的黄金城。它被看作是每个男人的“圣杯”——那里有你一生都在追寻的东西。基本上，不论你的神物是什么，你都不会在这个地方留下遗憾。更妙的是，它在南美的某个地方，到那儿不用花太多钱！
7、
安乐乡
向往理由：那里下奶酪！
安乐乡是一个颠倒之地，在那里所有的社会制度都受到蔑视（修道院院长被僧人们痛打），崇尚性自由（修女倒立露底），食物充足（天上下奶酪）。在这里，无所事事和暴饮暴食是基本职业——谁不想那样？
6
贝曼尼
向往理由：你从不会变老
贝曼尼是一个神话城市——据说是不老泉的源头！它还一个充满财富的地方——一个人间天堂。传说胡安 庞塞 德里昂在寻找贝曼尼和不老泉的时候发现了弗罗里达。有点讽刺我猜。
5
瓦尔哈拉
向往理由：整天战斗和宴会
瓦尔哈拉，维京人的“阴世”，是神和死去的勇士生活的地方。现在－你只有死了才能去那个地方，但是值得！每天你都和巨人搏斗！但是等等——情况慢慢就会变好。每场战斗之后，你都能吃到宇宙野猪大餐（
，不知道什么东西），并且通宵饮酒！当你把这头公猪吃完后，他又会复活，你又能吃它，一遍又一遍！（译者注：怎么象网游里的情节啊）噢——沃克瑞丝（最热辣的女神）也住在这里——因此你不会觉得厌烦的！
4
阿瓦隆
向往理由：对耶稣来说就更好的了，对我们来说同样很好！
阿瓦隆是阿瑟王死前结束的地方。它也是阿瑟王的神剑（艾克斯凯利伯）铸造的地方。在阿瓦隆有世界上最好的苹果——和传说中美妙的苹果洒。据说当耶稣复活时，他和亚马利太的约瑟（把耶稣送进坟墓的家伙）一起去过阿瓦隆。我跟你说那里的苹果不错。
3、
香格里拉
向往理由：乌托邦
香格里拉是喜马拉雅山脉中的一个迷人的山谷。它是个永恒的福地，与世隔绝。住在香格里拉的人们几乎是不死的，远远超出了常人的寿命。这个地方是如此有名，以致纳粹在1938年派了一个探险队去寻找。幸好他们没找到！
2
凯撒城
向往理由：许多的黄金和珠宝－太神奇了！
大多数对凯撒城的描写都把这个城说成是一个繁荣的，充满黄金、白银和珠宝的城市。它被描写成一个被施了魔法的城市，只能在特定时刻出现。至少有一种描述说它位于一个是黄金一个是珠宝的两山之间。
1
耶丝
向往理由：狂欢
耶丝是一个建在布列塔尼海岸边的神话城市，最后被海水吞没。耶丝是科努瓦耶的国王格拉德隆，应其女儿达哈特的要求，建在海平面下的城市。她的女儿喜欢海。它是世界上最美丽迷人的城市。对国王来说，不幸的是（对住在那里的人们可是幸运的），达哈特是个坏女孩，她开始整日放纵狂欢。
