Guess the City

it's not kobe, there are not open fields that close to the city center. downtown kobe looks nothing like that. the tiered hotels are not a japanese style.

Also, I see no shanty town, which I'd expect to see if the country was poor because of all the unused land

a lot of things could be out of the frame: shantytowns, a central tourist area, etc

I can't find any coastal city in Mexico or Cen America that is both as large and as hilly.

xp true

this part of town could be a hole

Hualien City is similiar but not quite.

i thought i was onto something with Hobart, but nope

is it Penang / Butterworth Malaysia ?

i don't think so. there's not two big green fields seperated by a waterway near the shore.

this is frustrating

To answer Ismael I'd say most of the points are correct except this one

- I'm guessing a population of around 300,000- I'm guessing a population of around 300,000

I think its population is more like 100,000

i feel like im running low on cities i can think of to post.

Great, that means it's even less likely that it's somewhere notable xp.

I thought of a reason for the crazy density among the woodland left-of-centre. I think the forest is on higher ground than the buildings, so that the high-rises are in narrow, shallow canyons snaking back from the main city. Don't suppose this'll jog any memories?

Not A Coruna, in Galicia?

alternate view of 91

almost has to be japan, korea or Taiwan

97

Bradford?

Actually I think it is Keighley

Correct first time!

Are you going to tell us what 91 is first?

Oh yes!

91 is here - you should be able to see the distinctive shape from this

http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=38.194347,128.587074&spn=0.050457,0.076904&t=h&z=14

Well that's a relief. You have no idea how many hours I spent gazing at that photo, hoping the Eiffel Tower or the Pyramids would suddenly emerge into view

Ha sorry. I know it was kind of an obscure one but people were successful at getting all kinds of obscure ones and I thought the shape kind of distinctive

Is 94 Charlotte?

98=Roanoke Virginia, from Mill Mountain!

P.S. Hi dere!

damn. i was checking everything likely in New England and the mid-Atlantic, and stopped just short, at Lynchburg.

98 is indeed Roanoke, well done! Surpisingly recognisable and distinctive perhaps

I grew up there! More recognizable with the star, perhaps ;)

99. Ok so its hardly a city but I'm sure someone will get it!

new hope, pa?

It isn't - but that is a very good guess!

91: Valdez, Alaska?

Oh, wait, I just saw the first 91 photo, and now I says, Halifax?

I'm guessing it has to be in the U.S. Right-side driving + use of word "State Law". Then again, maybe some provinces use the word "state" for sign purposes?

and you know, american flags. minor details.

101: Glossop? It's not Bath is it?

Closer with the first guess. Wildly wrong with the second!

I said it's not Bath! : )

Uh, Harrogate?

A bit too hilly for Harrogate!

#100 is hard - I don't even know what to guess at

I don't actually know what Harrogate is like, but the photo seems a bit posher than a lot of the dumps I'm thinking of.

101 looks a bit like Hebden Bridge to me.

I was going to say Wakefield, yeah

bah, you got it

102.
