Inspired by a thread in the german forum I would like to start this here:   Procedure is quite simple: - A picture is posted (I'll start on this) - Tell where this picture was taken - if you're r

Noriko - correct, over to you. These are the terraced rice fields in Longshan, China. I cropped out the fields to show only the houses / hotels. There are a lot of fields and few houses / small hotels

Thank you...

 

For narrowing it down: does the city we're looking for have a seaport? I'm guessing it doesn't, so we would have

 

Manchester, Leeds, or Sheffield...?

No seaport though at one time ocean going ships did once make their way into the city.

OK, thanks - I think this hint makes it absolutely clear which city... Although I still don't have the faintest idea which building this could be...

 

I have nothing presentable at this time - so if anyone with pictures to show (!) wants to jump in and say the magic word please feel free to do so...

If I'm not totally deluding myself the city in question should be Manchester - with the Manchester Ship Canal connecting it to Liverpool and the open sea. Nowadays, many (container) ships are too big for the canal so the port of Manchester does not seem to be handling overseas traffic anymore... Very interesting case of a seaport that was... but no longer is...

 

Regardless, I cannot solve for the building. No idea...

The picture in #16976 is absolutely beautiful. Sadly, it doesn't seem to help much for our problem.

 

I'm venturing a wild guess now: is this park (with the dilapidated building in question) somewhere along the line connecting Manchester and Bolton?
