Advertisement Posted June 26, 2010 Posted June 26, 2010 Hi a.j.z, Take a look here "Do you know the world ?" -- Competition --. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Dirk Van der Herten Posted June 27, 2010 Share #4622 Posted June 27, 2010 You hit the middle of the target, Andreas! Over to you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.j.z Posted June 27, 2010 Share #4623 Posted June 27, 2010 Dirk, you get around a lot and to interesting places! After your hint it was not really difficult, because southern Egypt is not very crowded (and apparently there was no big choice of Ptolemaic female names) ... Well - where is this?

vertekijker Posted June 28, 2010 Share #4624 Posted June 28, 2010 Done a good bit of googling, but with no result. A lot of churches look like this one. Are we in your neck of the woods? Austria, or Slovakia maybe? ------------- Frans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jarski Posted June 28, 2010 Share #4625 Posted June 28, 2010 A lot of churches look like this one if anything, past generations were pretty passionate about building churches some hint might be needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirk Van der Herten Posted June 28, 2010 Share #4628 Posted June 28, 2010 Göttweig Abbey, near Krems. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.j.z Posted June 28, 2010 Share #4629 Posted June 28, 2010 (edited) Göttweig Abbey, near Krems. I am impressed! How did you get that so quick? I mean the painting is unusual (as are the towers) but there are really a lot of churches and abbeys in Austria. Your turn again ...

Dirk Van der Herten Posted June 28, 2010 Share #4630 Posted June 28, 2010 I am impressed! How did you get that so quick? I mean the painting is unusual (as are the towers) but there are really a lot of churches and abbeys in Austria. Your turn again ... Yes, there are many churches in Austria, BUT the church clearly looked from the baroque period, so the choice was limited, Andreas. You made an interesting photo of a beautiful church! Over to our next location: the function of the building, please. Welcome, dear visitor!

stuny Posted June 28, 2010 Share #4631 Posted June 28, 2010 To recycle used statues? If not that, perhaps a museum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Van der Herten Posted June 28, 2010 Share #4632 Posted June 28, 2010 It's not a museum, Stuart. If you determine the location first, then the function will be obvious. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Van der Herten Posted June 28, 2010 Share #4633 Posted June 28, 2010 A clue: the site is on the Unesco World Heritage List. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vertekijker Posted June 29, 2010 Share #4634 Posted June 29, 2010 Googled myself blue, Dirk - couldn't find anything like it. Is it a palace? A casino maybe? How many guesses is one allowed per go anyway? A spa maybe? A museum? None of the above? ----------------- Frans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Van der Herten Posted June 29, 2010 Share #4635 Posted June 29, 2010 It is indeed a palace, Frans. Can you be more specific? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vertekijker Posted June 29, 2010 Share #4636 Posted June 29, 2010 That's encouraging! I'm going to search anew! ---------------------- Frans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vertekijker Posted June 29, 2010 Share #4637 Posted June 29, 2010 Is it at Caserta Royal Palace, in Italy? ---------------- Frans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Van der Herten Posted June 29, 2010 Share #4638 Posted June 29, 2010 It is not the Caserta Royal Palace, but it is a royal palace. Whose royal palace? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vertekijker Posted June 29, 2010 Share #4639 Posted June 29, 2010 (edited) Hard one, Dirk! Is it the Royal Palace in Naples? (Capodimonte) (je ziet, ik geef nog niet op!) ------------- Frans Edited June 29, 2010 by vertekijker Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Van der Herten Posted June 29, 2010 Share #4640 Posted June 29, 2010 It's not an Italian royal palace, Frans. Another hint: a famous 20th century guitar concerto was named after the location of this palace. This location will lead you to the royal house in question.
