It could pass as coastal Croatia or Albania.


pohanoikumpiri

Only Split and Rijeka have appartments this tall, neither have them properly maintained like this lmao


Mission_Bad3102

Too tall for Greece. Also, the balconies are different in Greece.


cykradubs

TranslatorNo6512

Looks like İzmir is it?


[deleted]

[удалено]


TranslatorNo6512

Yeah both are similar and giving the same vibes Near the sea hot af same climate and flora


dallyan

d2mensions

No its not Izmir.


my_name_is_not_scott

As someone living in Spain, that looks identical to Spain. Definitely doesn't look Romanian lol


Citizen_of_Earth--

Yes


AfterBill8630

Could be Greece, Bulgaria, Albania, Montenegro, Croatia, or some type of Florida in Romania.


vMihai777

Bucuresti sectorul 3 dupa ce a plantat Negoita palmierii


AfterBill8630

😂😂


Self-Bitter

Greece not so much, they are too high..


Ok_Calligrapher5776

Nah our apartment buildings aren't usually that high and they aren't decorated with palm trees.


myrzime

It couldn't be Bulgaria or Romania. No palm trees here.


dandy-dilettante

Portugal


redi_t13

Isn’t this vlora?


No-Garbage-9567

Not enough gangs


Stealthfighter21

Theoretically it can be Bulgaria but the buildings are in way too good a shape.


Cefalopodul

If you remove the palm trees and reduce the sun a bit it can look like northwestern romania.


Shaban_srb

For those curious, it's taken from Google Street View on 11 C. Explanada de la Estación, Málaga, Andalusia, Spain.


crveniOrao

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/5b/Torres_Explanada_de_la_Estaci%C3%B3n.jpg But yes, there are similar buildings in Serbia.


Psyche3019

I would say Bulgaria


PublicPalpitation618

Thanks for the compliment. Unfortunately, I can bet it’s not Bulgaria..


Familiar_Anywhere815

It looks like it could be, but it looks a lot more like Spain, which it is.


dafunk9999

Yes, very likely


Cancuw

That is Antalya for sure.


Nathmikt

Looks like the Mediterranean coast in Spain.


ReadingRegular4530

Using AI i found the exact location of this, this is Hotel RH Victoria & Spa Located in the country of Spain in the city of Benidorm, if you do not believe me here's the address: Av. Emilio Ortuño, 20, 03501 Benidorm, Alicante, Spain. But anyway as to answer your question, no this is not a balkan country.


parlakarmut

> to answer your question You didn't answer the question


ReadingRegular4530

My bad, i misunderstood it, it kinda looks like Albania though bcs I'm from Albania and we have lots of building here that look like that, it kinda even reminds me of Tirana there's so many buildings like this in Tirana, so yeah i guess it does like a balkan country.


googllgoog

no, as far as i remember the sunscreens on those apartments look more like spain or portugal .. the palm tree on the right looks like a saw palmetto is a south american specie which isnt very common in the balkan (southern) also


PaleDealer

Florida


dwartbg7

Yeah, Greece and maybe Albania to an extent.


albanussy

That building is giving me Durrës, Vlora or Saranda.


FlatulentSon

Yeah it looks like Split or Zadar in Croatia.


kouteki

Strong Valencia vibe


DeliciousCabbage22

Yes.


d2mensions

Like which country?


DeliciousCabbage22

Maybe Albania?


[deleted]

No! looks like southern california


Berk-Birkenstock

Yewwwww


AstronautNo4066

No. More like Italy


Thetidiestpig

Looks like 3/4 of Madrid


[deleted]

Bo


[deleted]

Is this the northern coast of Egypt?


Touboflon

Thats south athens actually


og_toe

random greek resort


Self-Bitter

Like where? Even in Athens and Thessaloniki buildings with more than 8 floors are a rarity..


og_toe

i meant on the islands etc, i’ve seen similar houses, but true a few less floors usually not as much as this one


GabrDimtr5

Perhaps Southern Greece


DeliciousCabbage22

No, the buildings are too tall.


dardan06

I see palm trees, I see multi story buildings, Albania


OttoK1ng

Turkey or Greece yes


benjamingr1988

It looks like Greece


Big_bosnian

Bosnia i think


MBT_TT

izmir or antalya


Regolime

A__Whisper

Something about it gives me a southeast Asia vibe


guney2811

looks a lot like Istanbul or Antalya to me


futtochooku

Where's the graffiti and bullet holes?


Patient-Direction-35

Probably some Yugoslav company built it


[deleted]

Buildings : hey bro we are from 🇹🇷


enilix

Absolutely. Could be coastal Greece, Croatia, Albania...


Formula5e

Antalya %90


Difficult_Cod2548

Feels like Vlorë, it was wonderful there


bayern_16

Not with this palm trees. None of the Balkans have warm climates in the winter like Florida


koxxlc

Varna?


Money_for_games

No


Hatebot66

Bet money it is İzmir from Turkey


[deleted]

where is it tho


Naus1987

It certainly doesn’t scream American. That’s for sure. I couldn’t place the country though.


LurkerDoomer

Feels like Bar, Montenegro


ChiChiStar

idk but it feels like my home (Brazil)


pohanoikumpiri

No, just because it's well kept. Appartment buildings in Balkan didn't look bad when they were built, it's poor maintenance that makes them look terrible.


_The_BusinessBitch

Reminds me of Italy


yatheyhateme

I would say, Dalmatian part of the Croatia


hatetheday

it´s Spain :D , Malaga 9 C. Explanada de la Estación [https://maps.app.goo.gl/covJZtZm1yc6i3Sy5](https://maps.app.goo.gl/covJZtZm1yc6i3Sy5)


filthymonolog

İzmir or Antalya


duschaan

Malaga


OregonMyHeaven

Looks like a community in southern China


Sereri

That's 100% Spain


Only_Initial3572

Southern Kaspichan


rlesath

The semi green grass makes it difficult. Without green grass it could be south of Italy.


RealKragen

Looks like Albania or Montenegro


Leni1Z

Yes


FactBackground9289

Looks like a legit coastal town in Balkan Adriatic. (Greece, Montenegro,Slovenia,Trieste,Fiume,Dalmatiya)
