Guess the City

yeah, the incline looks like PA. Pitt suburb maybe?

does look like western pa or possibly w.v.

i kind of want it to be spokane, though

I found it by looking for the tips y'all gave me: PA and incline. :-)

it's gettin funicular itt

Morgantown WV?

135. http://tinyurl.com/2blemm2

it's either switzerland, or canada

;)

134 - Johnstown PA

135: Honolulu

haha, nevermind. mwhite needs better url masking.

Yeah, I was too lazy to add it to photobucket

So, wait, that is Saudi Arabia?

Abha, capital of Asir province in the southwest.

136

is 136 somewhere in china?

dont think houses/buildings in China have that kind of sloping roof you see on the ones in the foreground

but the shade of green you can see on some of the buildings definitely matches the construction tarps they drape over buildings under renovation. also signs of some kind of olde wall/tower on the right hand side? intriguing.

yeah, houses in the foreground look eastern european?

Proper high mountains, vague eastern euro look, church on bluff, nakh's name ... Yerevan?

haha no

yerevan has ararat in the background

that's a proper high mountain

Is it something like Sion in Switzerland? (missing the mid-city double hill though)

136 looks Russian or ex-USSR

there is no way that city is 1) below 5,000 feet elevation 2) south of the 40th parallel, or 3) populated by more than 100,000 inhabitants

north of 40th parallel but yr wrong with the other two

this is how it used to look

i really need to live somewhere surrounded by mountains at some point

yeah i've always thought the same....or proximity to mountains at least, since having huge mountains surrounding you could be dismal in winter light / snowdrifts

can you tell us whether this city is located in the caucasus, and if not, where it is in relation to them?

nowhere near the caucasus

define "near"

'that kind of sloping roof you see on the ones in the foreground'

They look sort of Scandinavian, as does the fact that some of the buildings are gaily coloured. Black soil = volcanic, but it's not Rekjavik and nowhere else in Iceland is big enough. Used to look different usually = destroyed in the war, so that'd be Norway. Bergen? But there's no sea in sight, which is confusing.

Somewhere Alpine/Tyrolean? Innsbruck?

For some reason, it makes me think of Eastern Europe...like maybe Romania?

ailsa near enough i guess

surprised ppl didn't suss it was alpine pretty quickly

I expect this one to go quickly, but I like the photo.

Ah, I was on the wrong side of the Alps with Sion, then (xpost)

xp lol erm any more clues?

That tall building with the clock looks a little like that one in Liverpool, but that's on the waterfront, I believe

xpost, yeah

Is that the Liver building being built? (Insert obligatory "can't tell if those cars have hubcaps" joke here.)

Liverpool indeed, it's my hometown. I liked that it was the Liver Building without the Liver Birds in place.

xp Manchester? Looks a bit like Oxford Rd to me...

yeah i was shooting for mcr, and the refuge building

That view hasn't changed much since the painting was done.

139?

feel like the car is a red herring

Looks like San Francisco, maybe the Marina district.
