Reprise of the rules.

The winner of the previous round posts a picture and a question about it. Typically "where.

You may not use "tin eye" or similar reverse image look up sites.

Please do not use EXIF data from the image to help. (note to posters, please remove EXIF data). This can include titles and location data.

Please do not allow 24 hours to pass between clues.

Questions deserve an answer (with the exception, of course, of directly asking for the answer).

We will have to figure out how to deal with winners that go AWOL.

Clues may be text or photographic.

Contestants may use text searches to look for images (in particular images.google.com is allowed to be searched via text searches).

There is no rule about having visited a place. If you have visited a place (or not) and instantly recognize where the picture is, go for it.

If you post a picture of a previously entered place that is easily recognizable as that place, you get to pick a different picture.

Please try to choose a picture and question where it is possible someone else will know or be able to research your answer. For example a picture of someone in your family and asking for the name will be just impossible for anyone else to get.

PM The winner.

Here's a view taken out of season, so it might not be all that obvious.

So the question is, where is it and what is the name of this feature?

Looks a little like the Arden and one of the curves at the Nürburgring.

No, but I must apologise because you suggested the Ardennes and I didn't respond to that part, which was correct.

Thanks W-K. That is my favourite F1 track BTW :)
Please give us the name and location of this religious building and what interesting fact is related to this place? This should keep you busy for sometime.

Let's say it is Eastern Orthodox.

Clue: It is not in Russia :)

Not in Greece.
In fact it is not in any of the countries where one can easily find Orthodox church just around the corner.
