This seems to some sort of European place, a lot of resemblance with Italian architecture. My guess would NOT be:

  • Rome as it’s has most buildings made out of stone
  • Pisa as again stone and not such architecture
  • Venice as mostly not high building

My guess is Florence.

Since we are talking about Europe, a great trip of travelling around Europe would be to make use of their extensive and cost effective means of transport i.e. railways. To make your journey cheaper you can buy a eurail pass. It can be further bought at discount from various websites such as klook. Cheers :clinking_glasses:

I think its the roof of the St. Stephens cathedral in Vienna. I was there a few years back.

One hack for vienna is instead of using the hop on hop off use the Vienna Ring tram to cover the city sights. Vienna card is also useful!

My guess is the Pantheon, Paris, France. Stay close to a metro station (even if it is outside of the central zones) and buy a Navigo pass for ease of using in all types of public transport…

  1. I think it’s stephasdom. St Stephen’s Church in Vienna. The fish-scales pattern closely resemble the zsolany ceramics like the one in Hungary.
  2. Buy a standing room ticket for the Vienna state opera if you’re visiting. It costs around 3 euros

Venice , Italy it is a chapel behind st mark

It does look like the dome of Pantheon, Paris, France.

A tip for Paris: If you are planning to visit multiple museums in Paris, the Paris Museum Pass can really help you save on costs. A smart hack is to start using the pass in the afternoon, say around 2 PM, since it’s valid for consecutive calendar days, not 24-hour periods. That way, you effectively get almost three full days of access on a 2-day pass.

It covers major attractions like the Louvre, Orsay, Pantheon, and Versailles, among many others.

However, if you are only visiting one or two museums, it’s usually cheaper to just buy individual tickets instead.

It’s the Duomo/Florence Cathedral, Florence, Italy.
