yeah cats in a cemetery always makes me think of la recoleta first, though cats in a cemetery seems to be a common thing. ive never been to buenos aires incidentally, but i did plan a solo trip there many moons ago, and have read up on the city a bit

Yep Recoleta! A place I have been but donโt think I formed particularly strong memories of. Are you supposed to remember things?

Looking at pictures does bring the memories back. Itโs very prestigious real estate, with cats.

I think I saw a cat inside of a glass-doored crypt in there

This can likely be reverse image searched very easily but I am sure ye can work it out without that.

did this building by some miracle survive ww2 or was it rebuilt?
― calzino, Saturday, 27 March 2021 11:14 (three years ago) link
Itโs Warsaw University of Technology which was damaged in the war and restored in the fifties, I think, with a glass roof added later.

First time I've got one! What a beautiful building.
Am I OK to post an image?
― Vanishing Point (Chinaski), Saturday, 27 March 2021 15:27 (three years ago) link
As in, I've never quite worked out what the rules are (or if there are any!).
I think the only "rule" (unspoken) is to not post a new image until the current one has been guessed, so you're good to go!
― rob, Saturday, 27 March 2021 15:34 (three years ago) link
OK, cheers! Absolutely someone will get this right away because I've missed some sigh saying the name in massive capital letters...

Thought it might be Bo Kaap in Cape Town but perhaps not quite colourful enough and that's not quite Table Mountain

I'd like to post pictures to this thread but I'm a bit of a luddite. What do you guys do, take a screenshot or share a google maps streetview to imgur and then link it?

Instinctively thought Denver but those trees look like horse chestnuts so I think somewhere in the UK.

they're driving on the right. it's not the uk. and there's a bus lane which makes me think it's not the US.
