Location: This request is impossible to fulfill. The criteria are too restrictive.
I apologize, but it's impossible to recommend a single city in Asia that perfectly matches all the specified criteria. The combination of year-round pleasant weather, affordable housing, small population, mountain topography, many museums, and easy visa/residency requirements is highly restrictive. Many cities that might otherwise be considered are excluded in the prompt. A more realistic approach would involve relaxing some of these criteria or broadening the search area.
Here's why it fits your criteria:
✦ Seasonal Weather Preferences
No city meets all criteria; this is too restrictive.
✦ Affordable Housing
No city meets all criteria; this is too restrictive.
✦ Ideal Population Size
No city meets all criteria; this is too restrictive.
✦ Preferred Topography
No city meets all criteria; this is too restrictive.
✦ Cultural Activities
No city meets all criteria; this is too restrictive.
✦ Residency Requirements
No city meets all criteria; this is too restrictive.
✦ Location Preferences
Asia, but no city meets all criteria.
