Guess the City

An improvement on Stoke-on-Trent for sure.

Lol funny foreigners ban not a great fit for brits tbh imo

xps my kind of town that

Im mad but its hardly as obvious as seattle

Oslo?

I think Oslo is flatter than that

First thought is it looks like a lake somewhere in the mountains, possibly in Asia or South America.

sorry about "Bosom Manor" folks!

I support the bosom manor meme strongly in all its forms

I also took absolutely minus zero offence from it.

Bosom Manor was coined by silby, iirc, to make fun of the endless churn of tv & film born out of nostalgia for the British aristocracy (your Downton Abbeys etc.), not to mock British-isms.

for a second I wanted to say Vancouver, but no.

Also, taking offense at "Bosom Manor" is absurd, it has nothing to do with "lol foreigners," it has to do with Brits on this board being like "oh this person played the hilarious maid in a show that was on for one year in the 70s for which I'm nostalgic" and USAmericans being like "y'all crazy"

it's incredibly funny, too, makes me smile every time i read it.

I fell way behind on this thread but the latest pic reminds me of KL. Where is our Malaysian contingent?

(or Singapore?)

xxp the Bosom Manor stuff isn't offensive at all (to me at least), just lame and unfunny, but then I might just be a humourless Brit so carry on!

tbf i did actually mean it as a sort of dig at how many photos of samey british flats we've been seeing lately itt but the same criticism could be leveled at any country's cities for the most part.

Happens a lot on ILX does it?

Bosom Manor is quite amusing but not really fitting for a row of 2 up 2 downs in Stoke I'd have thought.

Anyway, first thought here was somewhere mountainous like maybe Switzerland but I've checked the Lake Geneva cities and it doesn't appear to be any of them

it looks pacific to me, id guess asia

Yeah, I thought that too.

Looks like Japan maybe? Nagasaki?

Sokcho, South Korea. After scouring almost every coastal city on the Asian Pacific. First guess was way off, kudos to the above for pointing in right direction

I thought it was a lake so I spent some time looking at cities on lakes in Asia. For a little while I thought it might be Lake Suwa in Japan.

Sokcho it is, or 가슴 매너 as it is known locally

Presence was missed, the sleuthing on Cheboksary was exemplary

Tough one. I have nothing except Asia

The park and the girl make me think US

Indianapolis?

It does look like a Midwestern river town.

Perth?

Not the Scottish one that's for sure.

I think I see an evergreen back there? reminds me of denver, but the terraced skyscraper in the bg isn't denver, i'm pretty sure. woman looks american to me. looks a little on the dry side as well. i would guess upper plains to start with but who knows, not much to go by.

...Calgary?

Ahhhhh, I know this one! Gimme a second and I'll find the google pin.

Having some trouble but I'm 90% sure it's the River Walk district of "The Biggest Little City In The World".

(thx to Cherry Blossom for the gimme lol)

my pin was not exact (it was one park entrance over), this is the correct one:

Yeah, I was gonna say Reno NV.

The Silver Legacy* is pretty distinctive. I think it's the tallest building in Nevada?

Supposedly Peter Jackson used it for inspo for Minas Morgul:

those tall buildings with setbacks in a low density city were the giveaway that it was north america
