Forum Game - Where's That Landmark?

fuzzyfelt

Here are more songs that resemble a song by a band who also sang a song which could help with the location of the landmark.

Elvis


Lobsters


Pirates!

I think there are about 20 more of these, e.g.-




So, instead, this rendition of a song at times resembles another song from that band.

This landmark was built at the behest of someone who was also responsible for creating some other places that bare some similarities.

fuzzyfelt

Correction: The person responsible for this landmark and the person responsible for those places that have similarities were members of the same family.

This landmark has mountains and a lake nearby.

Nishat Bagh?

Location: Srinagar, Kashmir

hmmmm... I should get a prize for longest time to solve a puzzle.

hmmm².... I think I'll tease WannabeNewton about this one in the morning.

fuzzyfelt

Well done!

OmCheeto

Yippie!

I've been cursing at myself for not solving this puzzle every time I run across and interesting image. And of course, I can't remember which of these images in my head have, and haven't been played here yet. Argh!

Andre

Bosco Verticale, Milano?

OmCheeto

You know me too well, my old friend.

And the game is once again, a foot.

Or something like that.

Andre

Ah, nice one. It was not too difficult, I thought it was bonsai first but then the scale did not fit. But eventuall searching "forest building" did it.

I won't post a picture for the next one. But eventually the hints should lead to it.

First hint: The landmark consists mainly of a sphere and a obelisk-like structure next to it.

Second hint: "All science is either physics or stamp collecting."

OmCheeto

As both a philatelist, and a science nerd, I know that stamp. Unfortunately, being old and confused, it will take me a while to find it in my brain. I am going to guess though, that it has something to do with Bucky-Balls.

Oh poop.

And after googling, I must retract any statements that I may have made above.

Andre

Sorry Om, that Bucky Balls thing doesn't seem to help at all. But a scientific philatelist may have a small edge here.

Andre

next hint: it could very well be that no Nobel laureate ever visited the landmark.

Andre

Summing up all hints so far.

but a daughter did.

... as it shows on a youtube clip:

The music clue:

OmCheeto

Feynman.

Tuva.

I'm so glad it's Fat Tuesday.

I did not know it was Fat Tuesday, until, I saw all the beads this afternoon.
