    If you'd like to have another go, work away.

    There's a couple of things you might like to do before posting up a pic.
    One would be to consider if it can be quickly found by a google descriptive search, eg. "village under a cliff". A good few of the posters here would try that.
    The other would be to do a Google Image search on the image itself before putting it up. Although frowned upon by the traditionalists, some less scrupulous posters :) have identified places in the past using this.

    Oh I see :) thanks josip for saying! I didn't know :o
    Very kind, but please choose a location - you got it... (and it's more fun to guess)

    Also beware Fred has been everywhere in Bulgaria, and possibly Romania and Josip has links to Serbia, Croatia, etc. ;)

    Now if you were to post pics of places in outback Australia preferably West of The Ghan, South Island New Zealand, Western Canada no one will ever get them ;)

    I am not allowed discuss …

    Asuncion, Paraguay. En route I have now seen every other port of any magnitude on this planet and perhaps several others.

    (they must have paint sales on a regular basis)

    Assuming this is confirmed, somebody can take a turn, I am going off-line as it's midnight where I happen to be (across from the neighbours). :)

    Well done MT.
    Population of 525,000+ and quite a colourful port, albeit 100s of kms inland

    As to the new picture, some first impressions ...

    Looks to be around 25 deg north from the vegetation, high solar angle and since picture is looking south and shadows cast from that direction, more likely to be north of equator but can't rule out south.

    Appears to be a wealthy(ish) nation since there is evidence of recycling and air conditioning. Slightly Hispanic looking.

    Looking in south Texas.

    It looks like a dried up fountain type thing with a sculpture of shackles or manacles in the centre of it. I've been searching various combinations of these for a while now and keep getting directed to Paris :)
