Edit: beaten to it as I tried to figure out 47! Best guess for 47 is the French or Italian riviera, but it sould equally be a pastiche somewhere else. ---

> [@Darryl\_Lict](#): > > Plaza de Espana, Seville? Yep (and by 'eck it was hot the day I took that photo!). Those are specifically the “province alcoves” decorated with tiles representing each province of Spain. Edit: no 50 would be Ellis Island. I’ve never been but seen pics. ---

> [@Colophon](#): > > Nobody has guessed [this one](http://oi46.tinypic.com/2dvmzpl.jpg) that I posted yet. More of a general city view rather than a specific building but not sure if that makes it easier or harder! Judging by the spires, I guessed somewhere in Turkey, but haven’t managed to track the spot down in the major cities so it may be somewhere obscure or in a neighbouring country. ---

> [@Darryl\_Lict](#): > > GIS with “red roofs minarets” indicates Sarajevo. Good detective work! I was considering posting a pic of [this building](http://www.501places.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/IMGP4797.jpg) as a further clue. When I was there I stayed in the yellow house [here](http://www.501places.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/IMGP4781.jpg). The bridge is the Latin Bridge where Archduke Ferdinand was shot, leading to the First World War. Cool place with a lot of history in a small city! ---
