I've been reviewing over 10,000 pictures I've taken during my travels, and many are interesting for their unique site or architecture, and the idea of reviving the "where am I" forum seemed appropriate.

So, here's the first one. Where am I?

@cicerone imposter,
Isn't that the Akropolis in Athens, Greece?

Not my place.

Definitely not Greek.

Looks like the Roman Forum to me.

@Frank Apisa,
Just looked through a bunch of pictures of the Roman Forum in Rome...and this does not seem to be part of that.

Perhaps a Roman ruin somewhere else...Sicily or North Africa.

Could be Hurculaneum...but definitely not Pompeii.

No need to try for long, the Numidians have been there before the Romans.

They were known for their puns, hence Punic..

And they were Thug, Ah!

@cicerone imposter,
No thanks, I didn't say the name of this place.

(Or if I said, it was a pun).

Well since one of my guesses was Roman ruins in North Africa...this apparently is not an especially fair contest from you.

If Timur posts a photo...I hope he is fairer.

And would Tunis be an even closer guess than what Timur said. You still haven't given the site of the ruin.

No, Frank, it cannot be closer hence the pun.

I didn't say the name of the place because I'm in no position to post pictures right now.
