You say Cameroon is very cold, but I can't stop thinking it must be in central Africa...OK, how about on Zanzibar Island? Alternatively, Tunisia?

**Brian Ellis** · 4 April 2006, 04:57

Not Central Africa. Tunisia is warmer, but still rather cool.

Morocco?
I've found few photographs of castles there that look very simalar...

**Brian Ellis** · 4 April 2006, 05:15

OK, where about in Morocco?

**Nowhere** · 4 April 2006, 05:21

So far I think sothern...I'm finding many places similar to this photograph but none exactly like it

**lecter** · 4 April 2006, 05:24

Ait Benhaddou?

**Nowhere** · 4 April 2006, 05:27

Other description apart from "southern" seems to be Todra...

**Nowhere** · 4 April 2006, 05:32

Hmmmm...some ruins in Dades Gorge look awfully similar (also when it comes to surroundings...)

**lecter** · 4 April 2006, 05:42

I'll also add Foum Zguid to the list...let's see which of us turns out the winner

Unless of course one of this thread's resident experts pops up with the answer

**Nowhere** · 4 April 2006, 06:14

Draa valey might be another candidate...generally it seems there's a lot of places like this in the three valleys mentioned...

**Brian Ellis** · 4 April 2006, 07:50

Guess what? I'm embarrassed

The photo in question was downloaded with the name of the place and it appears that the name may be wrong. I looked at many other photos of the same place and none resemble it. In fact, the topography of the named place (Ouarzazate) is not mountainous. I would have thought that such striking rock formations would have been a tourist attraction, but I could not find them, using any of many keywords. I can conclude that shot was either photoshopped or is in some very out-of-the-way spot up in the Atlas mountains (I used Atlas as one of my original keywords). My humble apologies for having misled you. I suggest Nowhere takes over as having been the first to suggest Morocco, which is as near as I can be sure. Sorry!

OK, guess where/what

(BTW Brian, I've found something that was strikingly similar...but in much worse condition; one of the terms I provided shows it sooner or later in Google image search)

Poland?

It is the salt mine at Wieliczka, near KrakÃ³w in southern Poland.

**Nowhere** · 4 April 2006, 12:00

Hmm...I must search harder for something appriopriate next time (OTOH...I have enough of searching photos today

)

Curiosity: everything you see on those pictures, apart from obvious things like lighbulbs, candles, cords/structural cores of chandeliers is made of salt.
