Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[Gulo_gulo]

Wow, I think I finally found it but much further north and west than I thought. Is it Trier? I thought it was definitely Bavaria-esque.

It is Trier. Your turn.

Paris?

 

[Gulo_gulo]

Not Paris.

Edit:I'd give a hint but that's a pretty distinctive cathedral there.

 

[Gulo_gulo]

It does look French doesn't it. There's another more visible landmark a bit further up the hill behind.

 

[BruceH]

The flying buttresses look to be for looks not support. This is a WAG based on the multiple pipe chimneys. I've only ever noticed them in England. Therefore my WAG is London.

 

[Gulo_gulo]

London is colder than Paris. As the crow flies Paris is closer to London than this city is to Paris.

Edit: and yeah just noticing that is a lot of chimneys or vents!

Luxemburg

 

[Gulo_gulo]

It's not Luxembourg.

 

[epidemaiis]

In France but southern. Could it be Lyon ?

 

[Gulo_gulo]

It certainly is Lyon! 2,000 years of civilization history, starting with the Romans, and the cathedral there on the left was started in the 1100s, completed in the 1400s.

Edit: You're up!

 

[epidemaiis]

An UNESCO world heritage place.

Same place.

Is this the Dead Sea in Jordan?

 

[epidemaiis]

Is this the Dead Sea in Jordan?

It’s cold over there.

 

[epidemaiis]

A clue : it is Mediterranean sea

 

[CKuhns]

Corsica, France

 

[epidemaiis]

Corsica, France

Yes, it is Corsica. Calanques de Piana on west coast.
I wish you have opportunity to visit one day.

Your turn.

 

[CKuhns]

Try this one.

 

[jdauria]

Hamburg Germany? Hotel on center right kind of gave it away.

 

[CKuhns]

Thought it might be kind of easy, Hamburg it is - Your up. (My eyes couldn't read that regardless of how much I blew it up.) My better half just said "DUH!!!"

LOL...I could kind of make out "burg" at the end when blown up.

Here's the next one!

It's not working for me either.

Sorry guys, let me try again.

I don't have a specific place, but observations that may help someone else. Left hand drive, Texaco station, some palm trees. So tropical? Looks like too much flat land before mountains in the back to be Caribbean? Probably former British Colony.

On the right track.

 

[CKuhns]

Definately a former or current British colony influence. Cars on the left side of the road.

I am thinking carribian island. Maybe Jamaica, Haiti, or Dominican Republic (I visited all three a number of years ago.) Wild Axxed Guess. is it Kingston, Jamaica?

Haiti and the Dominican Repiblic i believe drive on the right.

 

[jdauria]

Kingston, Jamaica it is, you're up CK!

 

[CKuhns]

NICE! Traveling for work will post something later tonight.

 

[CKuhns]

Here is the next one

 

[pvpeacock]

Honolulu. Ilikai looking toward Ala Moana and downtown Honolulu

 

[pvpeacock]

Honolulu (Waikiki) view from Ilikai looking toward Ala Moana and downtown Honolulu.

One of my favorite pizza places is the Harbor Pub just down the street on the right!

 

[CKuhns]

Pvpeacock you are correct your up!

 

[pvpeacock]

Hint: In the upper right hand corner, the shorter of the two warehouses is a brewery/tasting room.

 

[CKuhns]

Looks like the San Pedro, California Marina (If it is then a number of years ago I stayed at the Hilton with the red / orange roof right at the marina but cant remember the name of the marina itself) I remember the marina being a LOT bigger though...

 

[pvpeacock]

San Pedro and Cabrillo Marina is correct. This is a pretty old picture as the area has been further developed over time with parks and walks, etc. The shorter of the two warehouses in the upper right hand corner is home to Brouwerij West which has great beer, lots of food trucks and bands on a regular basis. See: https://www.brouwerijwest.com/home

The big open lawn on the left is Fort McCarthur.

 

[CKuhns]

Staying with the harbor theme. This one is likely going to be a LOT harder. (Or not)
HINT - To get you started much smaller and this time of year likely nearly covered in snow and ice.
