Quiz: Guess The City from Its Skyline
Today's site, from The Guardian's Cities section offers a neat little quiz
challenging readers to identify an urban location solely by its skyline. Gentle
Subscribers will find this test of their geographic prowess an enjoyable
diversion.
"A city's skyline can be its defining feature -- from Sydney's Opera House to
New York's skyscrapers -- but can you identify places based on their skylines
alone?" - from the website
This pleasant little challenge features the always comforting multiple choice
format. Ten photos of city skylines are provided, while readers simply choose
the correct answer from the possibilities supplied. The images, however, are
presented in a slightly artistic fashion as opposed to the more expected
crystal clear photo reproduction which might have been anticipated.
