If it's not Sweden, it's Russia. I think the font on the left looks Cyrillic, even.It must be a big city because of all the well-trodden snow and six story building.It must be a very cold city because the snow's been there a long time.Is it Novosibirsk? St. Petersburg?

It's def Russia.

Kazan's about that sort of distance and is ostentatious wealthy but i'm not sure.

Me too. not to disparage the japan of Lake Biwa/Kyoto/cherry blossom-adorned temples but Hakodate is attractive to me. I like hybrids (and cold places).
