    I saw that Train Street on a travel programme, it looks absolutely bonkers!!

    But hardly a "landmark"

    Ha Long Bay supposed to be fabulous as well, but too big too be a landmark ?

    That waterfall though...... of all the waterfalls we've seen, I think that one deserves a vote.

    ETA.. . Having looked properly at the photos, can I change my vote to that bridge with the hands holding it up? Holy God, that's amazing!!!

    Ha-Long Bay

    Just stunning, I've always wanted to visit


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,511 ✭✭✭Purgative


    Strong round.


    Train Street. Looks fantastic. Love to see it and get some arty photos.

    A very strong showing from Vietnam, getting some serious wanderlust from this match.

    I could go for any one of about four of these, but I'm going to go for Train Street on the basis of it just being something completely different to what we've seen from other countries.

    Ha Long Bay looks amazing. It gets my vote


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,276 ✭✭✭✭Ha Long Bay


    Ha-Long Bay for me.

    Watching the Top Gear special in Vietnam many years ago made me want to see it and have been back twice since.

    Ha-Long Bay
    Looks so beautiful, would love to visit this more than the others

    God I love all these.
    Vietnam is just beautiful
    Will go for
    Ban Gioc Waterfall

    Just very impressive

    Ha-Long Bay advances and will represent Vietnam

    Belarus - Brest Hero Fortress

    Just plain crazy

    Those Flaming Towers are hella-cool.

    But I'm gonna go for

    Belarus - Brest Hero Fortress

    If I was a supervillain I could see myself holing up in a place like this. It's insane!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,511 ✭✭✭Purgative


    Belarus - Brest Hero Fortress just because its a cracking film and I'd love to see it.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 7,258 Mod ✭✭✭✭cdeb


    I love a good bit of Communist architecture.

    But on this occasion I think I'll go for its successor. The Flame Towers actually stand out well in this group. So I'll go for that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,037 ✭✭✭Cosmo Kramer


    Glad someone nominated Brest Hero Fortress, I didn't think to.

    Table mountain and flaming towers are also strong and the Macedonia one looks nice, but Brest Hero Fortress is the standout here for me.

    Belarus - Brest Hero Fortress
    It's like a sad lone ranger version of mount rushmore


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,475 ✭✭✭✭Tauriel


    North Macedonia- Canyon Matka

    Prefer this over the others, looks very tranquil.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,873 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Flaming Towers are nice


  • Posts: 18,749 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Mmmmmmm, not sure here......


    North Macedonia- Canyon Matka


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,506 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    That's a cracking group..... but my god that Brest fortress is epic looking! A quick Google shows a long and varied history to go with it.

    So that gets my vote.

    I will go with table mountain. Looks like the poor mans mount rushmore will win though.
