Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[3 Dawg Night]

Bogota, Colombia

Roman triumphal arch - doesn't cut it down too much...

For some reason it feels like France rather than Italy - lushness of the grass perhaps, or the roadwork barriers?

So I'll try Nimes again just because it has pretty much the most Roman stuff of anywhere down there.

I like where you're head's at. Not Nimes but very close. This is the site of one of the greatest Roman defeats.

Moscow, looking out of Red Square with the Cathedral of Vasily the Blessed on the right.

 

[D.B.Moody]

Da. It was 2012, taken from our hotel window.
You're up @bruce_the_loon

 

[smcinco]

Saint Basil aka 'fool for Christ'. Ouch

 

[bruce_the_loon]

Here goes. Probably easy.

The island is an original world heritage site. I visited there in 2007.

 

[D.B.Moody]

Goree Island, Dakar, Senegal

 

[InspectorJon]

Goree Island it is.

 

[D.B.Moody]

I was probably predisposed to like a place with a sculpture of barley:

 

[D.B.Moody]

Here's another skyline in the same city. It is from 2010. The skyline changed in 2011.

 

[smcinco]

Just to get us off top dead center: Ghent?

 

[Pkrd]

I thought the street looked very much like NZ but didn’t recognise the first sculpture.

 

[D.B.Moody]

Smcinco, thanks for trying. You're off by 11,696 miles.

 

[D.B.Moody]

Pkrd, NZ is correct. How about the city? (The sculpture is called Flour Power.)

 

[3 Dawg Night]

Christchurch?

 

[D.B.Moody]

Christchurch is correct. We were in New Zealand in 2010 and found the place just beautiful. We were sorry to hear of the earthquake in 2011.
I don't know why Pkrd didn't name the city, but you're up @3 Dawg Night.

Chattanooga, Tennessee

Chattanooga, Tennessee

Exactly! I proposed to my wife on the middle of that bridge. Lupi's Pizza Pies, just outside the picture, is one of my favorite restaurants on Earth!

You're up, @D.B.Moody!

 

[D.B.Moody]

3 Dawg Night, I liked your story about the bridge in Chattanooga. My wife and I been across it a few times, and there's a nice brewpub just on the southern side next to the Choo Choo.

Anyway, here's another bridge:

Ronda

 

[D.B.Moody]

Ronda it is. We enjoyed a visit there in 2014.
You're up @smcinco.

Looks like a Roman aqueduct. So...Rome?
