Guess the City

sign probably saying 'SALE' in the window suggests an english speaking country.

The anglicism 'Sale' replaced the German words 'Sommerschlussverkauf' and 'Winterschlussverkauf' a while ago, much to the relief of German sign-writers.

I recognised the store logo, but was beaten to the punch on Düsseldorf.

The premises in Schadowstraße is now an opticians, I think: https://ergra-low-vision.de/

nice find!

I thought it was Sonderangebot!

Good find, but I was also looking for the identity of the man

Wednesday

No idea, but I'd move there in a heartbeat

Thinking China

looks somewhere equatorial and colonial but i don't see any mosques. maybe somewhere like macau but the towers aren't big enough.

It’s so flat!

Yeah, not Macau because there isn't a weird space needle thing, and this isn't taken from the weird space needle thing

I still think it's China. In most countries a river that size would allow you to narrow it down to coastal cities, but not China. Doesn't look muddy enough to be the Yellow River or the Yangtze at least

is the ultra modern looking thing on the left a stadium or a train station?
+ these very colorful buildings in the front, a circus tent - amusement park maybe?

Architecture in the foreground doesn't look Chinese to me. Unless maybe it is a college campus deliberately designed to look Western or something.

The groupings of distant buildings remind me strikingly of South Korea

Dnipro, Ukraine?

I was going to say, looks a bit like one of those previous photos that turned out to be in the Ukraine or Russia.

Looks more like Kiev tbh, the island in the middle matches up with maps in a certain way.

something distinctive at the very far left (when I zoom in).. the white space odyssey bldg

I could be totally wrong since I don't see any onion domes.

Can't find the aerial shot but I really want to go to northern China now. It's Harbin

great find - I had been looking at big cities on rivers near the sea in the South but had given up

I was switching between the south and the north and the Russia comments above made me refocus on the north

Well done. Was hoping to get some idea of what all those russian style buildings are, they're not identified in google maps itself but I found a user review: Located in the Sun Island Scenic Area, Russian-style Town is a Russian-themed tourist spot and sightseeing area. The town retains a few dozen Russian-style villas and private residences. You can walk into these buildings for a visit.

The space age building on the far left, however, is completely unmarked.

The space age building is Harbin Grand Theatre

ah, the one pic i didn't look at!

scroll left for a headless person with another tiny person in their rucksack.

Wow I was sure that it wasn't China.

I wouldn't be so keen on moving to Harbin, it gets real cold there in the winter.

Smashed it!

The aerial photo is super close to the icy river one you found, a bit to the NW next to Harbin Polarland

And yeah it does share strange similarities with the Dnipro aerial shot from the other time!

Interesting.. so the architecture was done deliberately to evoke a Russian appearance. Nice find.

can't find the exact location of your pic (weird, do different countries get different pics maybe?) - can only find one very close:

Missed this one but, yep, Harbin was mostly built by Russian railway workers and, though it has obviously changed a lot, the historical buildings (and faux historical ones) often have a heavy Russian influence.

xp thanks! but no, I have nothing there on my map

Monday Morning Blues

I can do no more than state the obvious and say that it's the UK and probably England.

Nottingham

looks like some shithole in bucks or berks

Lol that has a different meaning where I am, though I don't doubt yr right.

(Bucks and Berks are two counties that form part of the ring around Philadelphia county, and both are full of both very nice area and absolute shitholes)

That feels like literally everywhere I've ever been in England.

church and steep high St are the clues here I think

i'm pretty sure it's south of nottingham

little bit twee and tudor for the midlands and north

Wouldn't rule out Ireland here

Building on the left, behind the traffic light sign, does not look English at all

Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan

I'm still trying to figure out what that grassy area in the center is. At first it looked like some kind of traffic circle, but then I started to think that the apparent curvature of the wall was actually fish-eye lens distortion and the wall is actually fairly straight. Still not sure though. And I can't figure out what is the in the low-lying area behind those bushes. Perhaps a river or train tracks?

Maybe non-English looking building on left in an otherwise English looking scene suggests more continental influence ?some place in Kent maybe
