"Do you know the world ?" -- Competition --


Recommended Posts

You got it Reiner, the Japanese Imperial HQ during the war - that is why it was kept as a ruin after the A-bomb. The Meiji emperor stayed there for over 7 months during the war with China. Fascinating place to walk around in - I discovered it by chance.

Your turn Reiner!

So that chap at the bottom right corner is not giving a Hitler salute as I first thought.

Indeed, there seems to be quite a few Sullivan law firms in Chicago.

 

Cheers, Ken.

Jan: Tricky, but not for you. Go on.

 

Thanks, Reiner.

 

This time I did not have to refer to Google ot any other on-line help... I visited Chicago quite a few times when I used to live in Montréal.

 

Back to rummaging through some slides and digital files.........

 

Best,

Yes, very far from Salzkammergut.... ;) Had I not bought some salami in this Chicago Metzgerei many years ago, I would have never guesses that it was in North America. Mind you - the traffic signs and type of sidewalk are not typical to Europe.

 

Now - for the next challenge: Where are we? For extra points - where was the photo taken from?

 

Good luck,

 

Jan

How about a guess to start off? Northwest Pacific coast of North America? Perhaps near your city of Vancouver?

 

Good guess, Peter. Keep them coming!

 

Atlantic coastline?

 

Cheers, Ken.

 

Ken,

 

Peter's guess was indeed a good one! The Northwest Pacific coast, nor Vancouver are a part of the Atlantic Coastline....;)

 

Best,

Maine, someplace north of Boothbay Harbor.

 

Hello Stuart,

 

Thanks for the guess but, the same answer given to Ken will apply here:

 

Peter's guess was indeed a good one! The Northwest Pacific coast, nor Vancouver are a part of the Atlantic Coastline....;)

 

The locale is indeed NOT along the Eastern seaboard.

 

Best,

The Sunshine Coast, BC, Canada?

 

Wild Guess - Neah Bay, Washington State

 

stefan

 

It is not Neah Bay (a beautiful place by-the-way), nor the Sunshine Coast (just as quaint). Interestingly, an (almost) equilateral triangle with Neah Bay and Sunshine Coast being at its two points, will have the actual location as its thid point........

 

Enough hints for now..... "Square Peter' is too much of a sleuth.....

 

Good luck,

 

Jan
