Ciudad Bolívar?

Actually looks quite like Georgetown, low buildings and lots of trees there.

It's remarkable how newer residential / small business architecture has converged to a single style throughout the middle income tropics. Before cinder blocks, rust painted galvanized steel roofing, and rooftop tanks for water, it would have been possible to narrow down to a region just from foreground structures.

These newer ones are all good guesses, but not right. I'll try to find an additional non-revealing photo tonight.

Cienfuegos, Cuba
― nate woolls, Monday, 5 October 2020 00:25 (three years ago) link
Yes! You've got it nate woolls, it is Cienfuegos.
I was meant to be going there next spring, but not now, for obvious reasons.

I just googled "grey building with red dome" and it was the 4th image result
― nate woolls, Monday, 5 October 2020 09:55 (three years ago) link
Ha. I guess it is striking, but that's impressive.
The second image is a view of Parque José Martí and I believe the "grey building with red dome" in question is the Palacio de Gobierno, the regional government headquarters.

Does remind me of a timelapse video I saw a few months back of a boat (camera tethered above) journey from Rotterdam to Amsterdam

yep, it is Rotterdam, not Noordereiland, my first thought, but Eiland van Feijenoord, just around the corner from it.

Yeah, I'm right stumped, though somewhere in Canada does seem a correct guess.
― "Bi" Dong A Ban He Try (the table is the table), Sunday, 27 December 2020 22:44 (three years ago) link
Mostly due to the red and white color scheme of the train in the pic. But I can't find any bridges in Ottawa that look like that one, unless I'm missing something huge.
― "Bi" Dong A Ban He Try (the table is the table), Sunday, 27 December 2020 22:52 (three years ago) link
You're not missing anything huge, its not Ottawa

It's def Canadianesque boreality, so I googled a bunch of Scando cities but they all looked richer. Figured it must be Russia and I was right
― flamboyant goon tie included, Thursday, 31 December 2020 01:45 (three years ago) link
Also the coal smokestack in the downtown core? Вот где собака зарыта!
― flamboyant goon tie included, Thursday, 31 December 2020 01:47 (three years ago) link
I guess the Boxing Day City thing threw me off...for some reason I assumed it must be a pic of a city where Boxing Day is celebrated, even if the pics themselves weren't seasonally appropriate.
But yes, it's definitely Ufa given the train station's gold some and the color of the passenger trains in that area.

There are certainly a lot of striking photos of Ufa
