Many people that I traveled with did not like the noise and bustle and dirty air but I loved the place. The way the heat and the thick air hits you as you take your first step out of the airport, it is unforgettable. Ad astra per aspera
Temples got old quick for me; and after Angkor, I'm permanently spoiled. Actually, here in Cambodia, I've actively disliked them - the palace in Phnom Penh is filled with gold Buddhas while desperately poor people beg for money outside the walls.
I liked Kuala Lumpur more than Bangkok, but I think that's because it was the first Asian metropolis I visited (Singapore isn't English but it's too close for me to think of it as Asian).
