    Osaka Japan? Was there last year, it had a canal that looks similar!

    The writing on the billboards is Japanese I think.

    Obvious one first so - Tokyo?

    That was quick! Yep, Osaka.
    Do you know where exactly? I left a clue in there that would help you pinpoint it exactly.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,944 ✭✭✭✭Links234


    Dotonbori ;)

    Edit: Was the clue you left in the famous Glico running man?

    I haven't a breeze, I just remember that canal because I walked along it a few times. Was actually going to go on a boat ride but didn't have the time. I don't think I can post images yet so someone else feel free to throw one up :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 727 ✭✭✭Morpork


    Go ahead Links234, you got the exact location anyway. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,944 ✭✭✭✭Links234


    ok, sorry I couldn't think of anywhere more imaginative... google view, the clue is, it's not Osaka!

    Wasn't it clever user name who got it last time?


    Hiroshima?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,944 ✭✭✭✭Links234


    Yeah, but clever user name said he post anything so someone else go

    No, not Hiroshima


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 537 ✭✭✭clever user name


    Thought it was China, but I don't think they have google street view. Kyoto? Just a guess based in the fact I remember seeing a sh*t load of red bridges there!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,944 ✭✭✭✭Links234


    It's not far from Kyoto

    Found it after doing a google image search for: long red "pedestrian bridge" over river japan

    Had to do a little bit of searching with google maps after that.

    It's Uji in Japan or at least, it's the bridge over the Uji river :)

    Here it is: https://goo.gl/maps/9t8Sn

    Obama? We built a petrol station in his honour, but the Japanese went one better and named a city after him...

    think this is an interesting one even if it works out simple.

    Hint is "nuclear" :)

    You're all getting very close. There's an obvious google search from the picture that I used to find it on the night it was posted.

    I decided to try and be a smart arse and answer both photos but haven't had much luck with V_Moth. Any hints V_Moth? Is it in North or South America, New Zealand or Australia? Is it outside a park, military base, national monument, tourist sight?

    It looks vaguely like back country of northern Ontario, Quebec area. No real clue as to where though.

    But then he told someone else to post in his place and got thick (maybe tongue in cheek:o) when the same thing basically happened.

    There is nothing in that photo to suggest where it could be though, it's already time for a clue or a more obvious photo.
