Clocktower!  j/k....

Hmm The ones that stand out for me are:

The waterfall level in SCV4
Block 3 I guess it could be called in CV1 (the first time you see the flea men)
underground caverns in SoTN
I like the first level of HoD as well.

Nothing really stands out for me on the GBA titles. I'm finishing up AoS then I will move on to the DS titles.

I still have many CV games on my list to be played.

God, I just don't know what to pick and choose... I have way too many favorite areas that I enjoy on some level or another. I don't exactly have a top 5 as it's more like a top 20.

(CV3 1st Clocktower) Loved this stage the first time i saw it.
(CV64 Villa) Loved the music that went with this stage. Worked out very well.
(SCV4 Stage 1) Ultimately for the 'Theme of Simon'
(CV RoB Stage 1) The fact that it's from Simon's quest
(CV SotN The castle keep) Loved the atmosphere this area bled out. Even the music 'Heavenly doorway' worked out well.

My favorite levels:

1.- Clock Tower of Untimely Death (CVIII). I love how you get at the top of the tower, to then repeat the stage from end to start, with the help of the good Grant DaNasty. Also, Clockwork is my favorite CV track ever ;D.
2.- The Atlantis shrine¿?/Sunken City (CVIII). The one with Aquarius BGM, you know... With the post-boss stage, of course.
3.- Balhjet Mountains (CoD). I know that the stages in this CV are very repetitive, but I love this track!!! Also, I like the boss fight, a lot.
4.- Castle corridor (SotN). The first time that I played, I get impressed with the lightning sound and quiet, and then when Dracula´s Castle is played, I get MORE impressed.
5.- City of Haze (PoR). I really like this track (Victorian Fear). And see a 3D building just at the start of the stage, is simply amazing, for me.

Really hard to decide on this one, especially with only 5. Perhaps if it was 50.

1. [Curse of Darkness] Garibaldi Temple
I remember my first time entering this stage, the first thing that hit me was the music, simply the most beautiful piece I've ever heard. Then the hallways with stained glass everywhere, the moonlight seeping through the stained glass was just wonderful. Even today, I still turn on the game just to wander around in that area. If only Curse of Darkness have a first person POV camera function...

2. [Lament of Innocence] Garden Forgotten By Time
This stage is quite surreal to me. Castlevania is supposed to be full of death, but this stage is so full of greenery and life, it makes for a good break from the concrete. Little bits of what looks like sunlight seeping through on the ceiling also adds to its wonder. I guess this is what it feels like to be in Castlevania Wonderland.

3. [Symphony of the Night] Inverted Library
Ah... good times with this one. It was crazy trying to get a Schmoo to drop a Crissaegrim. When I finally got one and I accidentally killed another Schmoo, it dropped my second Crissaegrim! I was the happiest person for an hour. I also liked the beastiary of that stage, cleverly made to reference the Wizard of Oz.

4. [Rondo of Blood] Stage 1
I played this stage so much I know exactly where everything is. Every time I revisit this stage, it makes me feel so pro playing it. And of course, Richter has a badass theme song that I could listen to for hours on repeat.

5. [Curse of Darkness] Garibaldi Courtyard
Yet another escape for me, this stage feels strangely relaxing, even though its filled with blood thirsty monsters.
