Guess this:

RULES:
- people who live in that city/place; traveled to that city/place recently or frequently are not allowed to guess it to give others a chance.

- pls name not more than 3 cities/places in 1 post

- i will give no hints and no reply about continent-guess at the start;
but maybe later, if it is too difficult

Thanks and GOOD LUCK

Truthfully, the last time I was in Portland was 1969. I was very young at the time.

that means the US Bank Corp. Tower was already built back then???

BKK, HK?

Blazar · November 25th, 2009, 12:33 AM

hong kong for me too (from the stylesed flag on the skyscraper's tympanum mirrored in the window)

SanMiguel · November 25th, 2009, 07:53 AM

Sanarok is right!

it is Bangkok (BKK)

the building is the Holiday Inn Silom BKK, which is just west of Jewelry Trade Center(my pic!) at Silom Road.
The reflected building is the Royal Charoen Krung (RCK) Tower or State Tower (another pic by me

)

the picture u had to guess was also taken by me.

SanMiguel · November 25th, 2009, 01:53 PM

i also didn't knew about this tower untill i passed it in September this year

it's in Germany

.

snowman159 · November 25th, 2009, 02:53 PM

BW, Hessen, Bayern ?

Blazar · November 25th, 2009, 03:09 PM

germany is big ... not certainly in niedersachsen, schleswig holstein, mecklemburg...

SanMiguel · November 25th, 2009, 04:11 PM

Germany is not really big compared to Russia, USA, Canada, Brasil or China

even France is bigger...

it's too early for telling u the right federal state...
but 2 hints: not Schleswig Holstein or Niedersachsen.

i want you to name a city or 3

.

SanMiguel · November 26th, 2009, 08:26 AM

c'mon guys!
it's not that hard to guess; u guessed the right country faster that i expected...
and i already gave hints, so u can already exclude some cities.
Btw, even Niedersachsen, which is excluded, got hills.

.

KAZAN RESIDENT · November 26th, 2009, 12:24 PM

Mainheim?

Blazar · November 26th, 2009, 12:35 PM

Blazar · November 26th, 2009, 12:45 PM
