Kampala was quite easy to guess... at least for me was clear that it is somewhere in Africa...

the new pic:
i think we had this in a gtc b4 , but cant remember where it is :(

Moscow, Warsaw, Budapest?

.

Funnily enough I had a friend who stayed in that hotel and bored me silly with his Uganda pictures about 5 years ago!

Poland, Czech R, Romania?

I think it is Budapest though like San Miguel although I think I see a Chilean flag also!

^ i didn't realized the flags b4... but are u sure it is Chile's flag? :)
it could be also many other flags with blue and red...
Burma, Cambodia, Costa Rica, Croatia, Cuba, Czech Repuplic...
ohhh... then it could be Prague? :D

.

Ah but San Miguel firstly I do not know it is a Chilean flag, but the policemen in the front look latin. However the shop or bank in the bottom left with the black, white and red sign looks like it is written in Hungarian.

The flags could be for an embassy or international hotel that has a whole load of flags outside, I always take flags with a bit of scepticism.

del

:uh::uh::uh:
Now tell me, what's your final judgement?

Mine is either Chile or Hungary.

Bulgaria, Ukraine, Poland?

Bucharest, Sofia?

:):):)
As some of you guessed, it is ...
Santiago de Chile.
Eastern Europe is a good guess anyway, because it does look like that region.
