The writing at the top isn't quite decipherable. I'd be tempted by Bishkek otherwise. Those markings on the side tho hmm
― cherry blossom, Saturday, 7 March 2020 11:29 (four years ago) link
The markings on the side are pretty much unique to one city.
― ShariVari, Saturday, 7 March 2020 11:39 (four years ago) link
Or two cities in the same country to be more accurate.
― ShariVari, Saturday, 7 March 2020 12:00 (four years ago) link
the only place I've been where there were markings on buildings that seemed like those is Brazil, specifically São Paolo, but that's all I've got.

looks a bit like amharic/ge'ez so given the look of the place maybe armenia or albania? tirana? I know they go in for wacky tower block decorations

That’s all you need. It’s right.
The graffiti is Pixação.

ha! nice. I saw a lot of it on the interminable (because of traffic) bus ride between São Paolo airport and Campinas. I found it menacing.

Well done Euler!
ok if no one else is playing, I think the river one is volgograd but this easier one is much harder. maybe east africa somewhere?
― ogmor,
Good attempt - I think it qualifies as being in that region
― cherry blossom, Saturday, 7 March 2020 15:46 (four years ago) link
hmm borderline east africa... kampala?

no!

"Easy one": the cars are all white so I assume it's somewhere hot, it looks "inland", I cannot identify the flag for the life of me

Flag looks most like Guatemala but... that doesn't look like Guatemala (at least not how I'd imagine Guatemala to look like)
― meaner stinks meat bake it cone (flamboyant goon tie included), Sunday, 8 March 2020 01:24 (four years ago) link
I didn’t notice the flag but it looks like the East African Community one, so if not Kampala, maybe Kigali?

also off-target

White houses with splashes of colour suggest somewhere hot to me but that's about as far as i can get.

That red brick with faux-Roman pillars has to be Britain, somewhere. Lancaster?

I can't think of a bit of liverpool docks that looks quite like that but lots that looks similar

I'm over-thinking it though, it definitely feels like England

Futhark runes on the boat? Too barren to be Alvdalen, but somewhere in Norway, or Gotland maybe? Maybe Fårö?
