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.
