Biggest World Cities on Lakes
Can you name the most populous cities in the world that are situated next to a lake with a surface area greater than 500 square kilometres?
Includes salt lakes, but not reservoirs.
Includes cities whose metropolitan area reaches the lake even if the city centre is further away.
For comparison, Lake Geneva has a surface area of 580 square kilometres.

Really fun quiz! My first thought was Mexico City as it is the only city I could think of that's literally on top of a lake :D

Could you add New Orleans (Lake Pontchartrain)? I believe its metro population exceeds Buffalo.

According to the source, New Orleans' metropolitan population is 1.01 million, so it is slightly below the cutoff.

Does Lake Maracaibo not count as a lake?

According to Wikipedia, Lake Maracaibo is a tidal bay and an inlet of the Caribbean, even though it is sometimes considered a lake, so I think it would be better to leave it out.
