ok i spent too long looking for somewhere in colombia or venezuela and then cheated & wow i was so far off

i used to live with someone from [this place] and it seems kind of funny looking at photos that he was so into mountain biking

I correctly guessed it was someplace very hot (white vans) and went through a number of countries on the correct continent before succumbing and cheating. Good one clouds

It does weirdly look American though, huh, until you see the streets

I'm going to guess... Panama City? (Or is it called just "Panama"?)

You devil. That's a very misleading angle, but I got it.

xpost- you got it, clouds, well done. Cartagena de Indias, Colombia.

wtf i am still astounded by how you ppl can do this
― KMFAO (Stevie D(eux)), Thursday, 5 December 2013 13:43 (ten years ago) link
This is the most astoundingly fun game I can think of. I can spend hours coming through skyline photos looking for similarities and differences and stuff like mountains in the background. BTW nobody has posted a guess/solution for clouds' last one? Should I give it away?
― fields of salmon, Thursday, 5 December 2013 15:42 (ten years ago) link
North America I'm guessing. Houston, somewhere like that?

1. Spotted the language in the picture2. Tried to read the english script, googled "yamashiwa"?3. Tried to place the blue logo, lotta googling4. Sorted through endless skyline photos and actually ruled out the correct city once before coming back around to it by accident5. Speculated that this photo was perversely taken from a famous landmark but I can't tell
― fear of zing failure (flamboyant goon tie included), Thursday, 5 December 2013 16:43 (ten years ago) link
there is one famous landmark in this city that would certainly give it away

I was in the wrong country, but the right general... part of this continent. Went through at least a dozen cities in that country before deciding to look through cities that would have similar rooftops. Then I got sidetracked because this city, if you look at it from any other angle, has a bunch of buildings that don't appear in this photo.
― fields of salmon, Thursday, 5 December 2013 19:00 (ten years ago) link
yeah this isn't the view across the city centre as such

Seville.

i've never been, but i bet it'd be good for some flanerie, even better a few hundred years ago

First time I've checked ILX today, and it's finally somewhere I've been! (assuming it actually is Seville, which it looks incredibly like)

THAT, is St. John's, Nfld.

(Although my first guess was Thunder Bay. "Canada" logo on the red building gave the game away)
