Moho's a pain to get to and boring once you're there; Eve's hard to get down onto and even harder to get back off; sneeze on Gilly and you're at escape velocity; Mun is the place you go to unlock the stuff you need to go other places, and yet most players never get there at all; Minmus isn't nearly as delicious as it looks; Duna is the reason I kept saying Mars' gravity was 0.3g (it's actually 0.38g so I was nearly a third off!); Ike is a nasty little thing that loves to troll Duna missions and throw them off course; Jool looks nice but eats anything that tries to land there; Laythe has almost no land to land on and what little there is, is all hills; Vall is a pretty, but pretty uninteresting, iceball; Tylo is like the bouncer of the Jool system and will readily eject you from the premises if you look at it funny, and good luck landing there; Bop is a puny little lump that's hard to get to and not worth visiting, except for the [REDACTED]; Pol has an unpleasant colour and is 0% flat; and Eeloo is really boring once you finally get there.

But after visiting them all, there's nothing quite like seeing the familiar blue seas, green plains, yellow deserts and grey mountains of Kerbin to let you know that at last, after far too long cooped up in this deathtrap contraption, you're home. Until you remember that you forgot to remember to bring some parachutes with you... :0.0:

The Green Hills of Earth

Let the sweet fresh breezes heal me
As they rove around the girth
Of our lovely mother planet
Of the cool, green hills of Earth.

We've tried each spinning space mote
And reckoned its true worth:
Take us back again to the homes of men
On the cool, green hills of Earth.

The arching sky is calling
Spacemen back to their trade.
ALL HANDS! STAND BY! FREE FALLING!
And the lights below us fade.

Out ride the sons of Terra,
Far drives the thundering jet,
Up leaps a race of Earthmen,
Out, far, and onward yet ---

We pray for one last landing
On the globe that gave us birth;
Let us rest our eyes on the fleecy skies
And the cool, green hills of Earth.

~Robert A. Heinlein

 Duna.

It is a different color than most of the other dull grey bodies.  

The views are fantastic. The red and orange landscape is a wonder to behold.

 

Minmus would be it if I liked green.

I also picked Duna, but only because you can actually land on it. Jool is prettier overall, imo, especially as seen from the closest moons.
