You might have passed it and not realised that it’s the right station, for some reason Wikipedia chose to take a picture of the totally unscenic station building.

But y’all are on the right track (pun unintended)

The building on Kozuki station looked a bit like the one to the far right in the picture.

But the tracks are on the wrong side. I don’t know if I’m really gonna look again through all pictures.

It’s hard to strike the right balance of difficulty – this one seemed trivial without being facile.

( I’m not taking sente here, just tenuki’ing to a parallel easy stream c: )

That looks like a train or metro station on the British Isles. I think I saw that glass building in the background before.

Yes, I think I recognise the Underground logo on that sign. Is this somewhere near Paddington Basin?

Another hint: the bridge is going over a major river that passes through Kyoto

I’ll head out to have coffee and cake now. See you in an hour or so o/

I actually have no idea, but it is London.

Edit: I just checked: it’s nowhere near Paddington Basin.

I at first looked up the text at the bottom of the page then realizing that that was just the person’s language and where they were. I just am not good at google maps or geography.

The houses and architecture, granted hard to really see, remind me of something from Germany. This is my gut working. I’d go as far as hunching towards Dutch.

Seems very mountainous for the Netherlands.

Whahahah, if you’ve seen my photos you know how flat the Netherlands are!

I think the architecture looks Swiss, and the mountains look like the Alps, but not too tall, so somewhere around the outskirts of Switzerland, is what I guess. Knowing @Sanonius, they probably speak Rumantsch in this town.

Other than that, I have absolutely no idea, finding the right valley in Switzerland seems to be harder than finding the right lake in the Southern Hemisphere

Thems is hills. :stuck_out_tongue: I admit my geographical skills are generally lackluster.

Do they speak the aforementioned patois? :stuck_out_tongue:

OK then it’s not mountainous, it’s “collid” (from Latin collus, hill).

I’m now in the “Shakespearean” phase of learning languages, in which you coin your own words from the new tongue into the first one.
