I am wandering around in the Far East of Russia, somewhere near the border with China and North Korea and I swear it looks like somewhere in Sutherland. https://earth.google.com/web/@42.42210199,130.64618919,11.24126434a,0d,59.9999896y,283.28858068h,76.89284623t,0r/data=IhoKFnhsMVVUY0ZMV0xQOTA0emxOOENYQncQAg 23 minutes ago, GordonS said: I've got it: https://goo.gl/maps/QRnREccRaxp3RFCn8 Correct! The picture itself was taken in Russia. The tower (and I think the green hill on the right) is in China. The hills in the distance on the left are in North Korea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's another clue as to what country its in elsewhere. Work out the most likely city from there and there are only so many places it could be. Edit to add, it's at the European side of that country. Edited April 28, 2020 by Falcor Roar 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An artist called Song Dong does this surveilance piece with yellow lamp posts. He is from Beijing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got this one which should be solvable. Well I now know more about Buddhism in Russia and Turkey than I ever wanted to. Still can't find this fkr. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You got the right country, flag on the billboard top left. I say its in a city, which it is. But it's a very small city, particularly in Russian terms. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snobot Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 22 hours ago, GordonS said: Spent ages on this one with no luck. It's suspiciously busy which makes me think it must be to do with some event, but I can't place it. Rhue Lighthouse and car park, just north of Ullapool. Thought the lighthouse might help but it’s not actually listed on the NLB website so must just be classified as a navigation aid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
