Guess the Location!

[oldmanramen]

A win on your very first message! Welcome!

Thanks, Chris - its nice to be here

Is that a minaret atop a Christian fort within a Christian harbour? And - if it is, is this in the Mediterranean basin?

Great shot, by the way, Stewart! Given the current weather conditions in the UK, your photo makes me wish I was in Mallorca more than ever

OK - I'll give this a go and continue with the summer snapshot theme.

Where was this photo taken / what is the name of this city?

I think that is Aigues-Mortes in the South of France.

Isn't that the castle they filmed the 10th Harry Potter movie in, you know the one where the school gets destroyed and the magic goes wild?

(Or am I just dreaming about that movie?)

I've never watched any Harry Potter movies Bo, so, I'm not sure if that's a dream or not!

There are only 7 Harry Potter books and 8 movies made from the books!
So, just a dream of a crazy movie!
But it sure looks like a castle that movies could be made in or around!

Serioiusly, since no one seems to want to start the guessing, I will.
There is a flag on the flagpole, looks like it could be blue and white, are we in Scotland?

There is blue and white on the flag, but it's not in Scotland.

And you are not saying only blue and white, so maybe south of the border in England?

Not England, and not only blue and white.

 

[BosseBe]

Maybe across the channel to France?

And all you others out there, feel free to jump in!

Across the channel, but not to France.

Well there can't be that many choices.

Spain?

Netherlands flag is red, blue and white.

Not Netherlands, but red, blue and white is correct.

Blimey, if we're just going on flag colours, there's a few out there - Croatia, Czech Republic, Iceland, Norway, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, and Slovenia. And on that basis, looking at the castle and the roof to the right, I'm going to ask if this is the Czech Republic ?

I also need a new monitor - I can't see ANY colours on that flag

 

[Zapp]

Can't see colours on the flag either. I would say there are two flags out there, the upper one maybe with dark circles / dots (?).
For the colours there is also Luxembourg, very similar to the Netherlands.
