That may be true but this one is in the UK. That's the Tower of London!

I visited this nice small museum about a month ago. What and where is this place?

[Dave T]

This is Lake Bled in what used to be called Yugoland ..

The Yugo had jagged metal under the seat. My foot, wearing sandals, once touched the edge of the seat rail and started a little bleeding.

Somewhat difficult but the answer is....

Spa Francorchamps Circuit Museum in Belgium

Obviously not that easy - sorry for that. This picture was taken at the Eden Project http://www.edenproject.com/
Cornwall, UK for a great day out for the whole family:explore the largest indoor rainforest in the world and enjoy special events. A great day-out but takes two days to get there!

@Gepe
It is sometimes hard to say if an image is easy to guess or not. It also depends where you're from and people from the UK may have been more familiar with that site.

@Dave T
That's Keflavik Airport in Iceland. I made a stopover there once when they had cheap flights from the US to Europe through Icelandair. I didn't recognize the airport at first but the logos and color schemes of the Icelandair airplanes pointed me to the right direction.

And next is this world heritage site.

The Skellig Rocks, Skellig Michael (also known as Great Skellig) and Little Skellig, Ireland

History of this place
http://www.worldheritageireland.ie/skellig-michael/

Located at the western edge of the European landmass, Skellig Michael was the chosen destination for a small group of ascetic monks who, in their pursuit of greater union with God, withdrew from civilisation to this remote and inaccessible place. Some time between the sixth and eight centuries, a monastery was founded on this precipitous rock giving rise to one of the most dramatic examples of the extremes of Christian monasticism.

The monastic community appears to have moved to the mainland by the thirteenth century but the island continued to be venerated as a place of pilgrimage in the following centuries. In the nineteenth century, two lighthouses were built on Skellig Michael, establishing its importance in Ireland's maritime history.

Skellig Michael is also one of Ireland’s most important sites for breeding seabirds both in terms of size of colonies and diversity of species.

The well-preserved monastic remains have retained a strong spiritual after-life which appeals strongly to the human psyche. Visitors cannot but be awestruck by the physical achievements of these early monks which, when combined with the sense of solitude, ocean and bird sounds evokes a quiet sense of magic. This is beautifully expressed by George Bernard Shaw who, following a visit in 1910, described this ‘incredible, impossible, mad place’ as ‘part of our dream world’.

I wasn't familiar with that site but searching for "vikings rock carvings" showed these are Tanum Rock Carvings

The UNESCO-listed Tanum Rock Carvings are a collection of Bronze Age carvings found in the area around the modern town of Tanumshede in Sweden.

With at least 350 distinct groups of rock art comprising of hundreds of individual carvings, it is one of the most fascinating collections of its type in Europe. The carvings date from around 1700BC-500BC and depict scenes from the lives of those who lived in the area during this period - including scenes of ships, hunting and domestic life.


The Tanum Rock Carvings are spread out over a wide area and there's a huge number to see. A good place to start your exploration is at the Vitlycke Museum, where you can find further information and guides of the rock carvings in the area.

And next is this somewhat related location:

I suggest Erquy,in Armorica, a province of Gaul.
I can see a foreign Roman chariot and many strange people carrying short weapons they keep pointing at us.
This keeps them amused but they are already into Vitalstaitstix house.
How far from the truth?
