Among the American congressional districts I have visited, easily Florida's 26th (the Everglades and the Florida Keys).

Using (old?) Chamber of Deputies constituencies in Italy, obviously Liguria - 06, where I live. La Spezia, the Cinque Terre, Portovenere and Lerici and the Gulf of Poets, Sarzana, Sestri Levante... But of course I'm biased. Outside of here, I guess my favourite is Toscana - 01 (Florence north of the Arno).

Of those I've been to, probably CA-02. NJ-01 and PA-06 are honorable mentions for their high nostalgia quotient.

I'm going to say NC-11 and MI-01, even though both are currently represented by clowns. I feel like I would really like CA-02 and WA-06 as well, but I haven't been to either.

I don’t know, maybe WA-02.  It has the lovely San Juan Islands!

IN-02, because it's my district. Honorable mentions to IN-05 (lived in it for 5 years) and IN-07

GA-06.

The district elected FF Rep. McBath, but it also acted as a canary in the coalmine, indicating that Georgia was headed towards true swing state status.

Also, it kickstarted the career of an obscure investigative journalist who would go onto play a key role in swinging control of the Senate to the Dems.

My old swing district in the Lehigh Valley, currently represented by Susan Wild (D), once represented in some form by Charlie Dent (R).

I feel that this district is exactly right smack in the middle of the electorate and an excellent bellwether.

I'm going to have to say VT-AL (surprise), but I also like a lot of other districts in New England (MA-01 and MA-09 among others).

MD-03 because it is the most gerrymandered Democratic district.
Unfortunately it’s not an amazing partisan gerrymander, hopefully I can get a new favorite next year.

Without regards for politics...probably VA-7, NM-3, and UT-4
