A city with no straight roads.

I've always liked maps more than destinations. Straight roads promise efficiency, but curved roads invite curiosity. A city without straight streets would probably confuse every navigation app ever built, yet it might encourage something we've forgotten wandering without purpose. You'd discover cafés by accident, meet neighbours twice in the same afternoon, and never take exactly the same route home. We spend so much of life optimising for the quickest path that we rarely ask whether the scenic one has something worth offering. Maybe getting lost isn't the opposite of knowing where you're going. Maybe it's another way of arriving.
