Guess the City

I think the only bit of Britain where cities could look remotely like that would be South Wales

Pontypridd, not a city but who cares!

nice! the trees rule out pretty much all of england but i literally forgot about the existence of wales haha.

OMG! So fast! How? :-)

It just looked like the Welsh valleys, I went out with a girl from Aberdare and have family friends from Llantwit Fardre so I'm reasonably familiar with the area. The cities are a bit far out of the valleys to look like that and I know cherry blossom has played fast and loose with the definition before so I started gising the towns. The beige and blue flats were in the 2nd image for Pontypridd. The train station must be just out of shot

amazing! Well done :)

Didn't expect that one to fall quite so easily!

The train station is in shot, but behind the shed

cherry blossom has played fast and loose with the definition before

Tin City Alaska has a population of 0 and thats a city it even says so in the name. And if Tin City is a city then Pontypridd must be one too

outside

interesting square building built around a hill in the distance

what's that red-outlined black object (building?) right above the straw hat?

cable car :)

I'm thinking Manila

def looks like it, now for the spot

cable car :)

or maybe not, because a system like

spoke too soon either way

please ignore

manilla looks too built up for that picture.

is it the decommisioned Rio cable cars? they look similar in shape and colour. no idea about the vie though.

Caracas?

I think I have significantly underestimated how far away Caracas is from the water.

so we're on a mountain, the sun is setting behind us = the city is to the east of the mountain and further away there's this very big white fortification type thing with a mountain/hill inside of it? Intriguing and no idea.

Hong Kong

is there a part of Hong Kong with so few skyscrapers?

the high-rises don't look extremely new like they would do in China

There sure are a lot of cities with cable cars in the world.

This is quite a good article on the subject, though no help in the matter at hand: https://howwegettonext.com/cable-cars-are-changing-the-world-61f2b803c129

They’re very common as transport in mountainous cities, but mostly inland, which makes me wonder whether this could be a tourist one.

That white fortification/palace/building complex in the distance must be something famous, no? Why can't I find anything about it

man - I thought - what if we're in a lake! Big city in a lake? But then I found out the lake beneath Mexico City has been filled up centuries ago :-/

how old is this photo? ;-)

It was one of those articles about funiculars that made me think it could be Hong Kong...looks like the terrain and whatnot is very similar to the Ngong Ping 360.

i think it's somewhere in indonesia

ha nevermind, the foliage isn't right for it

it could be Korea? Seoul's cityscape is similar, but it's not big enough for there, so... Daegu perhaps?

feels like the port on the left is too big to be that far inland, but SK does have a lot of cities near the sea, good idea

mmmmm - Busan immediately doesn't feel very wrong

It does seem like there are at least a few South Korean cities with cable car installations not unlike the one in the photo.

I give up :-(

Another photo please?

ok!

I think I see Chinese characters in signs. I'm thinking maybe Taiwan now..

I thought that 7 underscore 0 (bottom right, on the road, in front of the parked cars) looked Korean fo sho

Mokpo, South Korea

Nice, how did you get it?

It was maybe only the 15th South Korean city I looked at. The harbour helped

nice!

I saw everything from Busan to Jindo - if only I had kept at it :(

South Korea has a lot of cities!

Doesn't look like there's any magnificent square fortification round a hill, just tower blocks all blurred together by the distance.
