This one might be a bit tough, so I'll post another picture, something with more foregraound/background.
This one should be easier.
C.I. That bas relief looks as though it might be St. George and the dragon. Your second one must be in China, right?
(we'll give Anon time to acclimate)
Yea Letty, I figured St. George too. That is usually an England kind of thing, so I think it's got to be there.
I'll swear I've seen that gate though. There's a couple of places that I think it could be. I HAVE GOT to dig out my pics so that I can start comparing locations.

The first one will be a bit tougher to figure out. It's not in England. The second one is not China.
The second one says "Happy new year".
It's the Temple of literature in Hanoi, Vietnam.
I was going to say VietNam but I chickened out!

The first one could be around St George basilica in Malta...
Well, there's no doubt that Francis is correct. Go, Paris.
Francis is correct on Vietnam, but not on the first one. That's a lot more difficult, so we'll let this one pass for now. Go, Francis!
Saw a huge chess game like the one in the picture in Nice many, many, years ago.
Neither England nor France.
Already stated, not Europe.
