Good thinking Turbo indeed they seem to have changed the design.

That building; She has a name.

Dang...so that fact that the letters "e-i-n-s-t-e-i-n" are in this hint were a dead end!

Here's one that will probably be too easy.

I've been inside Himeji-jo. It's quite impressive.

I've also been in Osaka-jo.

Another one - much easier than Andre's

Yes! Pick a good one. That was too easy, apparently.

Well I felt a bit rushed so this may not be a hard one.

Looks a bit like the Strait of Facades at Petra in Jordan

That was my guess.

But it's the Nabataean Tomb in Madain Saleh, Saudi Arabia

Madain Salih (Al-Hijr), Saudi Arabia - The ancient city of Madain Salih is the largest conserved site of Nabataean civilization south of Petra in Jordan.

Built between the first century B.C. and the first century A.D., the city contains more than a hundred well-preserved monumental tombs, among other buildings. In July 2008 Madain Salih became the first location in Saudi Arabia to receive the UN's World Heritage designation.

Amazing how many pages of stone cut tombs I had to go through to find it.

You got it, Om. Your turn to post!

Oh my. Are natural formations ok?

I've only been on one vacation in the last 16 years. If you know where that was, this should be very easy.

Correct!

How did you get that so fast?

Borek

Cleverness with a touch of black magic

Honestly - I don't remember details. Google for images of "white rock", adjusting keywords once you see something similar to the place in question.

Easy again:

That would be the Huashan Hiking Trail on the face of Mt. Hua.
