Not sure of the rules, but I'll play. (originally posted on wrong thread)

 

[GailS]

Schönbrunn Palace?

 

[carolync]

Nope. Wrong country.

 

[carolync]

Nope, wrong country. Here's another photo for a clue..

 

[JustTravel]

That looks like the Musée d'Orsay, Paris

 

[carolync]

We have a winner!

 

[JustTravel]

Where is this place?

 

[SMJ]

Venice, on Giudecca?

 

[JustTravel]

You are correct, SMJ. The photo was taken from the top of the San Giorgio Maggiore campanile.

I'll let someone else post the next photo to be guessed.
Who hasn't played yet?!

Bit of a trick question, this one: (the clue is more in the portrait than the flag and ribbons):

 

[PokeyMindy]

somewhere in Russia? hah a very wild guess!!

 

[PatrickLondon]

Indeed. Quite the opposite direction.....

 

[Ian Sutton]

Tomb of an exiled king?

 

[PatrickLondon]

Much warmer.... (as indeed is the place, compared with the popular image of Russia)

 

[Katt B]

It's the crown and flag of Hungary, but I don't know who the portrait is.

 

[PatrickLondon]

Keep going!

 

[Ian Sutton]

So we appear to have the tomb of the exiled king of Hungary - presumably post WW2, and it's in a much warmer country. Let's say in the port of Brindisi.

 

[PatrickLondon]

Further west than that....
