Mine is Jupiter, the king of all planets. It also has 4 of the largest moons in our solar system, with their own rights.
Ganymede is larger than Mercury, and has its own magnetosphere.
Callisto is slightly smaller than Mercury, but it is the most heavily-cratered celestial object.
Io is slightly larger than our Moon, and is the most volcanically active place than any other celestial object in our solar system. Lava can rise as high as 300 miles above the surface!
Europa is slightly smaller than our Moon, and has an slippery-icy surface that we suspect it has a warm ocean below the surface that harbors life.
