otto.f Posted December 16, 2012 Share #11041 Posted December 16, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) I could show more pictures of the city but this tower is by far the most characteristic part of the city we are looking for, so that wouldn't help Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Geschlecht Posted December 16, 2012 Share #11042 Posted December 16, 2012 Hello otto, Is it possible that we are East of the Aral Sea in what used to be the Soviet Union? Best Regards, Michael Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.j.z Posted December 16, 2012 Share #11043 Posted December 16, 2012 (edited) Kalta Minor in Chiwa (Xiva) , Usbekistan, at the Silk Road. I learned that the tower is a minaret that was planned to have 70 m but just made it up to 26. Edited December 16, 2012 by a.j.z Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
otto.f Posted December 17, 2012 Share #11044 Posted December 17, 2012 Andreas you are perfectly right, congrats! The minaret was meant to make it possible to see from Khiva all the way to Bukhara, but was not finished alas. Over to you! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they ran out of tiles ;-) I would really love to travel the Silk Road but this will have to wait. Where are we here (next city and what do we see please )? Welcome, dear visitor!

Dirk Van der Herten Posted December 18, 2012 Share #11050 Posted December 18, 2012 Your photo reminds me of the Tower of Justice of the Topkapi Palace in Istanbul. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.j.z Posted December 18, 2012 Share #11051 Posted December 18, 2012 Your photo reminds me of the Tower of Justice of the Topkapi Palace in Istanbul. Dirk, correct - I had hope to fool everybody a little longer with the not very typical picture from the palace but it was quite clear that one of the seasoned travellers around would recognise it sooner or later. Here is the full picture, where the bottom more fits in with the rest of the location. Over to you! Welcome, dear visitor!

Michael Hiles Posted December 18, 2012 Share #11055 Posted December 18, 2012 OK... This should be fairly straightforward. I think it would be fair to ask for the general place, and the next level of detail (locale). Welcome, dear visitor!
