Was thinking that, but unsure due to the rolling deprived look of the city.

Also, isn't Bulgaria a country and not a city?

Great looking photo!

I'm gonna start it off with Barranquilla, Colombia (Shakira's Birthplace), but the list of cities it could be really is endless.

No not Barranquilla

I thought photo had a lot and yet some detail (but not too much )

BTW worrying you know so much about Shakira

Well spotted Bulgaria is still a country.
Not sure though they would like your deprived label.

locum-motion

That railway bridge looks like it the sort of thing that could be a plot point of an Alistair MacLean novel/Second World War movie in the vein of The Guns Of Navarone/Force 10 From Navarone/Where Eagles Dare. ie Plucky band of mismatched Allied soldiers are inserted behind German lines to meet with the local resistance fighters and helo them blow up a crucial bridge.
Frankly, if it wasn't in such a novel/movie, it should have been.

So, I'm gonna guess somewhere in the former Yugoslavia. Belgrade?


EDIT: FWIW, I like these threads too, and post occasionally. Leave them as they are. Just because people aren't posting much, doesn't mean they're not looking.

jmayo

Ehh not Belgrade.

You are on the right track though.
Get it.
Boom boom.



BTW I bet you even liked Force 10 From Navarone ?
They really made a mess with the equipment in that movie.

I have read up about a few select cities in South America, Barranquilla being one of them. Shakira is probably the cities best achievement.

It's also Shakira yano:D

Bucharest

Asparuhovo
(edit: Varna is not quite mountainous enough imo to fit this picture but if the guess prompts a further west/south/north etc clue then that would be great :pac:)

Not sure if I specifically said no to this, but to confirm it is a no.

And as Fred rightly guessed it is Europe, just not his favourite country.

Jaysus no.
Remember how Carnacalla reckoned it looked deprived.
I would agree it is a lot more deprived than Innsbruck.

C'mon GBX, no minarets and a non-electrified railway line. Can't be that hard.
