Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[pvpeacock]

I can't see the picture. All I get is an "x". X-mas Island?

Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris?

 

[20grit]

Not Poland. Not France.

The tower in the picture was built as part of a larger system to protect the cathedral (that bears its city's name) from invading Ottomans (those pesky footstools).

City is the capital of the country.

Zagreb


I was unsure until I saw the hint about the Ottomans, so I thought Split or Dubrovnik but the next hint was it is in the capital . . . has to be Zagreb.

 

[BikerMatt]

Argh, of course! Searched belgrad, vienna, kiev, Bucharest etc but didn't go that far because croatia is to the WEST from estonia!

 

[pursuit0fhoppiness]

Wait but it's not Zagreb cause he said east of Estonia right?

 

[20grit]

Did I say east? Hmmmm... I guess I screwed that one up.

Zagreb was correct. Sorry to mislead with the east thing.

[MaxStout]

Wow, that was just a WAG on my part! But the architecture made me think Yemen. Too bad it's such a dangerous place. Always wanted to visit that town with mud brick buildings built into the cliffs.

OK, here we go. A pic I took in 1983. City probably looks much the same.
