Guess the City

surely to fuck this is europe not north america.

Tiles make me think Portugal and I've thought Lisbon a couple of times recently but it hasn't been but maybe this is? So, Lisbon?

I think the key may lie in finding out which country/city is apt to space out those cubic orange/white channelizing barricades in such a manner.

The green truck seems to have a word on the front -- looks like MACNYE to me but I'm not getting any hits for that

that's what I was thinking. the Blue on white tile and then the orange-roofed building in the distance made me think "southern Sweden" for some reason.

Or somewhere in Denmark, maybe? Northern Europe seems like the best bet so far.

Bunch of very dark haired people in the photo.

But the sand/dried mud on the roads seems more chalky Mediterranean, that's why I thought Bordeaux but what do I know

It looks very reminiscent of Tartu, Estonia.

I thought the roller vehicle said something like MACHTENS but I may be forcing it to be dutch

or maybe it's Argentina

The buildings are the wrong height for France. Need one more story for provincial villes. Also I’ve never seen tiles like that here.

Nother vote here for europe, baltic maybe

Agree that it doesn't look like France, does look like Europe. But not necessarily Northern Europe? Tiles look Iberian to me, although it's pretty flat for Portugal so maybe Spain? Or a colonial Spanish city in South America? The barricades seem not like something you'd see in a wealthy country...

can't think of a pic on this thread that has prompted a wider geographic range of good guesses

Trees look a bit Latin city boulevard too

Yeah, a little "warm!" or "colder!" would be of help right now.

There's a slow-moving vehicle sign on that steam-roller, which I believe are unique to North America. It looks like Charleston SC or something, something old and Southern

I'm going to guess Ulaanbaatar

something old and Southern

I mean New Orleans was the first thing I thought of when I saw those wrought iron minibalconies but I can't convince myself this is someplace that warm

Yeah, no magnolia trees

Wait, is this a Left Hand Traffic country?

I was wondering too... but there are not traffic signs to judge by, and the road equipment could be traveling in either direction

The car braking at the end of the street appears to be LHT.

I said Lisbon upthread and I'm pretty sure I've found it? More trees but looks right

I say more trees, I mean more foliage. cherry blossom's pic obvs winter

Looks right

Yep, well played.

I wondered if the tall building behind the trees was a church, yet it's flanked on both sides by those barn-colored apartments, which made me pause. But it is indeed a church. Good work!

I've visited a grand total of 12 countries and 3 of them have come up here recently, it can't last

you people

amazing work

A tough one - interesting that quite a few people thought it was North America. I did think the Iberian peninsula or possibly South America. The tiles certainly pointed to Portugal but despite having been to Lisbon several times, I forgot there are bits of it that aren't hilly!

Awesome work!

I did start googling 'red building city Lisbon' and similar last night suspecting that the caption 'Work' had a double meaning :)

Oops, no, no double meaning. Someone assumed that about a previous photo too. There's never a clue in the caption, everything is in the photo only

Nice one

Yeah those [whatever you call the glossy mosaics] look so Lisbonian

check out the 2009 version on Streetview though

Not there in 2014 either!

This one is going to be relatively easy, i think:

Not Europe, not North America, or South America I don't think. Looks Asian, more specifically subcontinental, judging from the men's dress / skin colour. Couple of yellow taxis too which makes me think India. I'm guessing an Indian megalopolis, Mumbai or Delhi.

Black and yellow curbs could provide the answer

But isn't that an oak tree?

I can confirm that it’s not Mumbai or Delhi.

looks kind of post--soviet to me but what do i know

actually it might be africa?

wait no it's definitely antarctica, getting a strong fort mcmurdo vibe

Phuket?
