Is that Antananarivo in Madagascar? I realise this is a very specific guess.
― Tim, Friday, 13 March 2020 15:37 (four years ago) link
excellent! i was hoping the rice fields would be misleading.

oh lol I almost posted Antananarivo myself but had no clue on ledge's photo
there are several ideas I've had but immediately thought "nah ShariVari will know that instantly"

Nicosia?
― ShariVari, Monday, 16 March 2020 10:42 (four years ago) link
Actually that's a terrible guess. Limassol?
― ShariVari, Monday, 16 March 2020 10:46 (four years ago) link
I really wanted it to be Recife, but it is not Recife.
― American Fear of Pranksterism (Ed), Monday, 16 March 2020 11:03 (four years ago) link
It's probably not Limsassol either tbf.
Thought process is that the cars appear to be driving on the left, which suggest ex-British Empire or Japan, air con among other things means it's not the UK, none of the cars are white, which would be statistically unusual for Southern Africa, doesn't feel much like India to me so likely to be Malta, Cyprus, Sri Lanka or Japan, but not much of a clue beyond that possibly faulty logic.
― ShariVari, Monday, 16 March 2020 11:11 (four years ago) link
Cars are driving on the right

I really wanted it to be Santander, but I'm pretty sure it's not Santander.
― Tim, Monday, 16 March 2020 11:25 (four years ago) link
One of the cars might be a black and yellow taxi, which suggests spain, but also might be anywhere else.

I think the way the weather looks is seducing people, that housing block front left looks suspiciously Soviet to me and there's a minaret halfway up.

yeah I was thinking either danube or volga but nothing obvious coming up
― thomasintrouble, Tuesday, 17 March 2020 11:01 (four years ago) link
The importance of the river makes me think it's somewhere on the cruise circuit, and the only non-obvious candidate for the Volga is Nizhny Novgorod.
― Doubling down on out of date information (aldo), Tuesday, 17 March 2020 11:11 (four years ago) link
definitely Danube. Galati.

Galati it is! good work Columbo

I would never guess any of these but I insist on making occasional offerings that amuse me so here’s this curiosity:

Hmmmm. I'm guessing some place with a big tourist investment in Swiss-chalet imagery. AFAIC there is no McDonald's in Helen, GA, but someplace like that maybe?

Ok I'll give a clue
If you look very carefully inside one of the windows of the first house, you can just make out Joe Biden standing behind a curtain (if anyone was wondering where he had got to lately)

Is the previous one Reading PA and the most recent one Mexico City?
― I_Got_Loaded, Friday, 27 March 2020 13:42 (four years ago) link
Reading PA is an excellent guess, 9/10. Its more rural than Reading but only around an hour or so's drive from there.
The second one....you're in the right hemisphere, but its not Mexico
― cherry blossom, Friday, 27 March 2020 13:49 (four years ago) link
First very very closer but still not quite over the line
Second needs work to get closer
Third is here

I've never heard of Viña del Mar and had to google it! I'm not sure which thats a guess for, but its closest to the second one with the blue and yellow houses though still some ways off
