otto.f Posted October 15, 2019 Share #18942 Posted October 15, 2019 I didn’t get from the last posts whose turn it is, a bit cryptic for me whether it is solved or not Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Geschlecht Posted October 15, 2019 Share #18943 Posted October 15, 2019 Hello Otto, All that we have so far is that the Building in question is similar in age & style to the British Museum. And, that it is NOT the British Museum. Best Regards, Michael 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

war Posted October 15, 2019 Share #18945 Posted October 15, 2019 There is life out there! To clarify, this was not solved. It is not the British Museum as suggested by Dirk but is of the same architectural style and built about the same time. A hint: This is not in London, and not British, however...............

war Posted October 16, 2019 Share #18949 Posted October 16, 2019 Otto, No not in the United States and yes thanks Michael for keeping this thread alive. Hint: The building does have a very definite British connection, historically. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirk Van der Herten Posted October 16, 2019 Share #18951 Posted October 16, 2019 Thanks for revitalising this thread, Michael. I think Wally's photo shows the façade of the General Post Office in Dublin. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
war Posted October 16, 2019 Share #18952 Posted October 16, 2019 Yes, the Dublin GPO (burned in the 1916 Easter Rising). You have it Dirk, you're up next. The 398 ft. Dublin Spire that replaced Nelson's Pillar (bombed in 1966) in front of the GPO looks like a flagpole in this deceptive photo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Van der Herten Posted October 17, 2019 Share #18953 Posted October 17, 2019 Thank you, Wally. A deceptive photo indeed, it made me wade through multitudes of similar neoclassical façades, till the frieze on the fronton finally gave away the precise location. Welcome, dear visitor!

otto.f Posted October 17, 2019 Share #18954 Posted October 17, 2019 (edited) This style and the way the colors are weathered, look very much like Bukhara, Uzbekistan. But I did not see it there, as far as I remember. Maybe the same architect? Edited October 17, 2019 by otto.f Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Van der Herten Posted October 17, 2019 Share #18955 Posted October 17, 2019 That was fast! This is the "Chor Manar" Mosque, the "Four Minaret" Mosque, just fifteen minutes walking from the centre of Buchara. Your turn, Otto. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
otto.f Posted October 17, 2019 Share #18956 Posted October 17, 2019 (edited) Oh Jesus, we missed that! Luckily we enjoyed Buchara very much, so no hard feelings. Perhaps instead, we made a trip outside Buchara by taxi, to a restaurant that was said to be the best in the whole region. It took us an hour to come there but that was quite normal for the locals there, as if it was as close as you can get to the sheep they BBQ there.

Hello Arnaud, These storks are probably made of plaster, can you imagine. Fortunately enough they don't cause all too much visual damage. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
