stefans4 Posted October 29, 2015 Share #15581 Posted October 29, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) It appears that it could be the small town of Reszel, to the north-east of Olsztyn... in which case you would have taken the picture from the castle... Very nice town (apparently), and a very nice picture indeed! (If my guess is correct I apologize: I have nothing to show - so anyone is welcome to post a new riddle...)

war Posted October 29, 2015 Share #15582 Posted October 29, 2015 Reszel it is. A small town, perhaps 4000 population with an interesting history. Yes the photo was taken from the castle's medieval tower. To ensure it's preservation it is now a hotel, it was a great place to stay. Thanks stefans4. Someone jump in and post something! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuny Posted October 31, 2015 Share #15585 Posted October 31, 2015 Based on the hat it's likely to be Vietnam. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
spylaw4 Posted October 31, 2015 Share #15586 Posted October 31, 2015 Michael's correct, but Stuart's not - it's not Vietnam, despite that hat! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

spylaw4 Posted October 31, 2015 Share #15589 Posted October 31, 2015 Sorry, but both Thailand and Cambodia are not the answer. A clue perhaps? This country has many islands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

war Posted October 31, 2015 Share #15591 Posted October 31, 2015 The rice terraces are no help, they're everywhere in Asia. Those hats could be Javanese. How about the Indonesian Island of Java Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

spylaw4 Posted November 2, 2015 Share #15593 Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) The rice terraces are no help, they're everywhere in Asia. Those hats could be Javanese. How about the Indonesian Island of Java Indeed - Java it is. But it's a big island, so out of interest can you narrow it down? The many rice terraces are part of the reason why one comes to this spot, apart from the small early Hindu temple.

otto.f Posted November 2, 2015 Share #15594 Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) Arjuna, Dieng Plateau? btw the color of the sarong of the lady made me think of indonesia more than other SE Asian countries Edited November 2, 2015 by otto.f Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
spylaw4 Posted November 3, 2015 Share #15595 Posted November 3, 2015 (edited) Not the right location I am afraid. (BTW the sarong was worn by a man!) However in order to get the thread on track and moving again - this and quite a few other images were taken at the rice fields of Selogriyo. The small Hindu temple of Candi Selogriyo is 9th C. (Selo = stone, griyo = house) It was seriously damaged in an earthquake in 1998 but was re-built in a safer location by 2000. It is a worth-while but long 1/2 day outing from Amanjiwo nr. Borobodur. So - over to war for the next image. Edited November 3, 2015 by spylaw4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

war Posted November 10, 2015 Share #15598 Posted November 10, 2015 Hi Michael, "Someone Else" doesn't seem to respond so I'll go with another: The Mountain range in the background, or the town in the foreground and country.
