    Nah, I did not use reverse image search, I just know that city.
    Can't speak for ryankoo, but you have to know, erico96,
    that Wellington is very famous :)

    That bay with the modern skyscrapers, the low slope of the hills
    in the north western, and the high slope of hills in the northern area,
    all that makes it a dead giveaway (I think that was an English expression)
    :)

    Oh well, now I need to search for a nice city to post a photo of...
    Give me an hour or so, then I will have found one...

    Btw, good that you noticed yourself that it was too hard with your initial photo :)

    Córdoba?
    I assume the river is Guadalquivir and the little sharp stucture in the 1st pic is the Greate Cathedral and Mosque?\
    Man the Europe is really classical. A blind click on the map and you'll find something that is something!

    You are correct! Your turn!
    Indeed, Europe has a lot to offer, which is due to its geographical location on the planet,
    meaning not many desert like areas, not many boreal areas, except for the north.
    Also, it had consisted of many small states in the medieval new ages, which at parts
    had war with each other, so it can be that next to a little village, you will have
    places of some huge battlefield...
