What's The City

[Florin]

Actually well known for its name And yes, from TV...

[jezchesters]

Knott's Landing?

[Florin]

Hehe, no...here's a clue: the name of this city was chosen for the hometown of a famous animated family

[AjarnUan]

This looks like Springfield (Illinois)

[Florin]

Indeed it is!

[AjarnUan]

So, what is this city?

[Zpete]

Denmark, Copenhagen

[AjarnUan]

Further south than Copenhagen.

[mrbojangles]

Hamburg.

Although can't remember if the river goes that far inland

[AjarnUan]

Not Hamburg.

And instead of river, think canal.

[Zpete]

Gotta go beddies

Bruges

[AjarnUan]

In case there was confusion, when I said "further south than Copenhagen", I meant south of the 55th latitude, not necessarily directly south of Copenhagen.

Here's the main building in town:

and another pic of the city:

Definitely Ottawa, Canada.

One of the few pictures that I have ever seen of the capitol building without a flag flying on top.

EDIT: Since I'm a Canuck and know that I'm right, here is the next city:

And because I'm in a benevolent mood, I'll start with a hint;

It is a southern hemisphere city.

Southern Hemisphere?? Dude, that's Manhattan!!

[bino]

You're absolutely right, Florin! Like an idiot, I uploaded the wrong file.

Since you got the city right, have a go. I'll save my southern hemisphere city for another time.

[AjarnUan]

Definitely Ottawa, Canada.

One of the few pictures that I have ever seen of the capitol building without a flag flying on top.

(I erased the flag so as to not make it too obvious)

[Florin]

Here ya go...several clues in the picture, I reckon.

(It also shows up on the 1st page of Google Image Search if you search for the city name, so if it ain't there, try another )

(I erased the flag so as to not make it too obvious)

Devious!! Love it! Gotta remember that for my future pictures!!

[AjarnUan]

Salvador da Bahia, Brazil!

Geez, I went through about two dozen Brazilian cities before getting it

[Florin]

Excellent! Your turn...

[AjarnUan]

Two pics to start us off:

[jezchesters]

Portsmouth?

[mrbojangles]

Rosyth, Scotland

[AjarnUan]

Not in England or Scotland (or Wales).

Have yourselves another picture

[mrbojangles]

Liverpool, Nova Scotia

[AjarnUan]

Interesting guess.

Not in Canada.

It's in Europe.
