Can you give a hint ... is this an antenna, sculpture, waterway warning transmission device ?
Comment
Re: Where in the World is TravelGumbo (#221)
This is art and it represents something that happened that's very important to the area.

Re: Where in the World is TravelGumbo (#221)
As Gumbo crossed the bridge, he saw this beautiful church. Does this help narrow the location down?

Those ancient air conditioners definitely make it this side of the Atlantic.
Comment
Re: Where in the World is TravelGumbo (#81)
Yes, it's on the western side of the Atlantic, and I think you can take it from Picture 2 that it serves as a school. Two wildly-popular 20th-century pop singers attended and sang together... Helpful, eh?
Comment
Re: Where in the World is TravelGumbo (#81)
Well, to start, I count 15 medieval air conditioning units. The architecture feels like a curious cross between medieval (the tower) and gothic (large windows) so it's likely neither. Maybe a modern faux-historic hybrid?

Re: Where in the World is TravelGumbo (#200)
Another view of the building in the background. Does this give a clue to what country it's in?
Comment
Re: Where in the World is TravelGumbo (#200)
No one has solved the puzzle yet, but this photo of the area around the building holds a valuable clue. Does this help?
