otto.f Posted July 29, 2018 Share #18021 Posted July 29, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) A very old shot from the very old place. Hi Ari, You have cited the rules indeed, but what misses there is the idea that people can post an image after they have solved the foregoing one, so we do the Asian temple first Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted July 29, 2018 Posted July 29, 2018 Hi otto.f, 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 July 29, 2018 Share #18022 Posted July 29, 2018 This one still not recognised - can we have a hint please? A hint: the building is Asian, but it is not a temple. The Arabic text just above the door reads "lā ʾilāha ʾillā llāhu, Muḥammadu rasūlu llāhi", "there is no god but God, Muhammad is the messenger of God". Welcome, dear visitor!

Dirk Van der Herten Posted August 8, 2018 Share #18027 Posted August 8, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) The distance from Jakarta to Ulaanbaatar is much more than 5.000 km. Go south. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirk Van der Herten Posted August 8, 2018 Share #18029 Posted August 8, 2018 (edited) The distance between Jakarta en Lhasa is only 4.300 km, and Lhasa is slightly northwest. We have to go up, almost exactly north. The precise distance from the center of Jakarta to the center of the city in which the building is located, is 5.213 km.

otto.f Posted August 8, 2018 Share #18030 Posted August 8, 2018 Yes but the problem lies in the characters, I can’t understand that geographically Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Van der Herten Posted August 8, 2018 Share #18031 Posted August 8, 2018 I do not understand what is meant by the characters. Do you meant the text written on the front of the building? Another hint: there are not many so capital cities about 5.000 km. north of Jakarta. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
otto.f Posted August 8, 2018 Share #18032 Posted August 8, 2018 (edited) Yes the text. I get Bayan Nur at 5214km but it does not seem to have a mosque Edited August 8, 2018 by otto.f Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Van der Herten Posted August 8, 2018 Share #18033 Posted August 8, 2018 OK, I understand. But we're looking for a city that is the *capital* of a country. In our case, a very big country. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

otto.f Posted August 8, 2018 Share #18039 Posted August 8, 2018 (edited) Yes you’re right......: Dan Brown is the wrong track But if I’m not mistaken, you could be warm though by way of association. Edited August 8, 2018 by otto.f 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
war Posted August 9, 2018 Share #18040 Posted August 9, 2018 Barcelona's Monastery Santa Anna. Near Plaza Catalonia so perhaps this is the Gothic Quarter. If Gothic Quarter, then Detective Carhavalho? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
