ZOOM by FJP #18

Please, Read the rules!!

This GTC it's very easy, you have to guess the city, no country guesses available, for each 10 cities all you said the zoom will grow a little more.
The longitude of each growth will depend of the difficulty of the city.
Scoring:
1-First Picture 10 points.
2-Second Picture 8 points.
3-Third Picture 6 points.
4-Fourth Picture 4 points.
5-Fifth Picture or successive 2 points.
Rules:
*The city will be popular.
*Only 3 guesses per post.
*You can't post two times consecutively.
*If the pic has been taken in your city you can't guess it.
*No country guess
*No Google Earth, Google Maps, World Wind or similar.
Results:

With more zoom the quality would have got worse and this city is less famous than the others. But I'm sure hat you will guess it soon.


Lagos, Manaus, Durban, Abidjan, Montevideo=>NO

I know you heard this of many other cities but Baku is underrated. It's gorgeous and looks somewhat like Paris. It would be the perfect GTC if it wasn't done 100 times

Some pictures






It even has a beautiful historical inner city
