Guess the Skyline!

[delpiero1234]

Yay! So I get to pick the new one?

And yeah I got that French vibe and I thought Marseilles so I did my Melilla skyline tactic of looking around cities for the skyline. That's why I looked around Sierra Blanca (the mountain) and had Marbella as my first guess last time.

Also it will be a few hours (tomorrow evening GMT) until I can get a skyline up.

Yes it's your turn. The rules give you 24 hours to post a new skyline. After that, it's fair game for anybody to post a new one. Of course if you can't post one for a long time then you could also let others choose one in your place but you don't have to do that since the rules give you 24 hours of time.

I don't think many people here will be able to guess this:

Have fun

 

[Spockyt]

No ideas from me. It has a very modern, neutral building style, and the terrain doesn;t give away much.

Canberra?

EDIT: Not sure now

 

[delpiero1234]

It's quite zoomed out which makes it even more difficult.

Tirana?

Hue, hue, hue.

Canberra?

EDIT: Not sure now

A bit too far my friend

It's quite zoomed out which makes it even more difficult.

Tirana?

Not a terrible guess, but no sadly

 

[RepublicanIV]

BTW My 5 question hint will provide a hint (if it wasn't obvious enough) and at 8 wrong guesses I will provide a second view of the city

That is if we get that far.

 

[delpiero1234]

Since it's not Tirana I go with Pristina. I think it's in the Balkan region. Starting with the capitals first

Well damn. Even the obscure ones are easy for you lot XD

Yes it is Prishtina, the home of Route 66 (the fast food shop), the Newborn sign (although Kosovo's a toddler now), 200,000 people and the arses in the electrical industry who cut the power! (It's also my home, although I live and was born in London).

EDIT
Fun Facts about Prishtina:

1. It's the biggest city in Kosovo
2. 41% of all cars registered in Kosovo belong to Prishtina
3. The ladies are stunning
4. The food is stunning
5. It is quite dusty there
6. The nightlife is very good
7. Did I mention the ladies
8. Its metropolitan area has 500,000 people in it (over 25% of Kosovo's population)

Good job delpiero!

Let's try this one:

Happy guessing!

 

[ML8991]

Lol, dat luck.

 

[RepublicanIV]

All I see is apartments and no landmarks!!! Damn! At least I can identify it's coastal, with a very Mediterranean resort feel.

I'm going to guess:
Marbella? (Because second time's the charm that's why)

 

[delpiero1234]

It is not Marbella.

Looking forward to more guesses.
Also I will upload a more zoomed out picture of the city after three guesses if you guys think that this would help solving the skyline.

 

[ML8991]

Rio de Janeiro?

Similar coastal vibe and surrounds.

 

[delpiero1234]

It is not Rio

Keep the guesses coming

 

[delpiero1234]

No more guesses for twelve hours makes me wonder if this skyline is too difficult.

 

[Myquandro]

This one is very difficult and I don't have any good idea about where this is, so it comes down to almost random guesses.

Cannes, France?

 

[Spockyt]

Toscolano Maderno maybe?

 

[delpiero1234]

No to Cannes and Toscolano Maderno.


None of the guesses so far even close. Here are two hints to make things a bit it easier.

Hint 1: The city is on an island in the European Union

Hint 2:

Spoiler: Hint 2 is a second picture of the same city; more zoomed out.

 

[rakowozz]

Nicosia?
