Some more details that might help:
Inside your CitiesController you would have a view() action (a
function) that you can pass the city id too.
Just in case you need to get really basic with how the MVC aspects
work (broken into MVC):
After requesting the url suggested by gwoo: /cities/view/1
C - the Controller:
The action called view, in your CitiesController, requests that city's
data from the model using something like find()
M - the Model
The City model searches the Cities database table for the record with
the matching city id and returns the data to the Controller. (This is
done automatically for you by calling find() or an equivalent in the
controller. Once the model is initially set up, you won't need to add
anything to make this process work.)
The CityController then passes that to the view using set()
V - the View
The view called view.thtml then prepares the html served to the
browser.

You also mentioned the homepage having a listing of all cities. That
could also be in your CitiesController. You could have an action
called ViewAll that uses findAll() to get all the cities. The
controller would pass that data in an array to the view to display.
Actually, I think you can really use the beauty of Cake here by just
making a DB table for Cities, then using the bake feature to bake
everything we just talked about including the model, views, controller
and actions + adding, editing and deleting cities! You'll be amazed!
Hope that helped and good luck!

You would create a CitiesController with a City model.
Your URL would be /cities/view/1 for the city with id 1.
You could use this to set a Session that would allow the current city
to persist across other controllers.
hope this helps.
