    Is it Austria? There’s a Raifeissen Bank ad on one of the buildings.

    It's a bit too soon for country guessing, but if the location is not guessed in 24 hours I'll answer that ;)

    I doubt anywhere in Austria has streets that wide! It looks like Russia or Eastern Europe at least.

    Also I would have cropped the flag out if it narrowed down the location too much ;)

    The first image might have been a bit misleading so here's another angle.

    Ahem.

    Blue's Clues time, Niley. The architecture - the ballistrades - might suggest Europe, though the background belies this. Is that a bust on the stone column, facing the town/city?

    Hints time it is!

    The bust is actually facing the ruins in the background. The area is part of a a World Heritage Site, and some of the guesses to date would be less than 500km from the mark.
