Fushun has an Olympic sports centre and school stadiums in its central districts that match this layout. 4. Beyond the core residential towers lie fish-pond-style rectangular water enclosures and fields, then another low mountain range. Fushun lies at the foot of higher hills with farmland and fish farms between the urban core and the next ridge. 5. The mix of older mid-rise brick Soviet-era blocks near the base of the hill with newer high-rise apartment clusters beyond also fits Fushun’s development pattern, as does the lack of a large seaport or the vast flat plains one would expect around Shenyang.

The very muddy, greenish water with swirling foam plumes also points to a high‐sediment environment—most famously the Yellow River Delta, which pours vast quantities of silt into Laizhou Bay (part of Bohai Sea). The southern edge of Laizhou Bay (south of the Yellow River mouth) is protected by a long, straight dike behind which lie innumerable rectangular rice paddies or aquaculture ponds.

Behind the booth, muddy tire tracks, a flat‐bed truck and a large green cylindrical tank (probably water storage for dust suppression). 4. A concrete barrier and a roadway climbing up the hill—very little public signage except for a pair of small yield triangles. 5. The surrounding hills are low, scrubby and make me think of the marble/quarry country north of Guangzhou—Shiling Town in Huadu District is famous for its thousands of small private marble quarries, each with its own guard shack, water tank and heavy‐truck traffic. 6. On Baidu/AutoNavi I can actually pick out dozens of locations off S359 (Shiling Road) where virtually identical booths appear at the entrance to individual quarries. One of the more prominent sites sits just east of downtown Shiling. Putting it all together, this is almost certainly one of Shiling’s marble‐quarry gates on the old S359 provincial road (Shiling Road) in Huadu District, Guangzhou. Latitude/Longitude from the largest quarry cluster here is about 23.36°N, 113.13°E.

The scene is clearly a mid‐sized Chinese city (not a major Tier‐1), with a mix of 6–7-story “old” pastel residential blocks alongside 10–15-storey newer towers, wide asphalt roads, above‐ground utility cabling, three-wheeled cargo scooters mingling with private cars, and a sky-blue taxi bearing the white door‐panel livery typical of many Henan fleet vehicles. The bus-stop sign (a white bus silhouette on blue, with the two route numbers in white circles beneath) closely matches the style used in many Henan prefectural seats, rather than the multi-coloured squares or underground-cabled, green-shaded stops of coastal megacities. The curb stones are unpainted concrete (common in smaller county seats), and there are no English legends or bilingual street signs (again pointing inland). The moderately new tower on the right with its vertical red accent stripe is the sort of design I’ve personally seen in Zhumadian City, Henan province—where taxis are indeed sky-blue, three-wheelers still ply the streets, and mixed-age development is common. On that basis, my best street-level guess is that we are looking west down Xinhua Road (新华路) from its junction with Beijing Road (北京路) in the city centre of Zhumadian, Henan Province.

Town footprint: the built‐up area is roughly 4–5 km square with a neat east–west and north–south grid of 200–500 m blocks, surrounded by uniformly sized agricultural parcels—a hallmark of Shandong’s alluvial plain. 3. Industrial clusters: blue‐roofed factory parks appear at the town’s outskirts, aligned with planned county industrial zones in Shandong. 4. Comparison with maps: Qihe County (齐河县) in Dezhou, Shandong, sits just south of the Yellow River.

The fields are winter-brown, laid out in a strict grid—typical of the North China Plain in Shandong/Hebei rather than the paddy-green fields of southern China or the mountain-bounded lakes of Yunnan or Hubei. Next I matched the bay outline to known Chinese coastal bays: the west side is nearly a straight north–south coast, and the east side shows a pronounced peninsula pushing into the bay (but the higher, forested hills of the peninsula are hidden by cloud cover in the shot). This fits Jiaozhou Bay south of Qingdao, with the Laoshan (Qingdao) Peninsula forming the eastern rim and long straight mainland shoreline on the west. The bay is about 15–20 km across—consistent with the scale of the farm plots seen.

The highway on the right looks like a brand‐new expressway skirting a shallow cut in yellowish subsoil, with a two‐carriageway profile and a gently curving alignment. That is exactly the type of section you see on the new Hangzhou–Ruili (G56) or Chengdu–Kunming (G85) expressways north of Kunming – built through hilly terrain out of steep yellow clay and forest. Among those, the G56 Hangrui Expressway north of Kunming near Songming County passes over very similar topography: steep cut slopes, clusters of small upland villages, and irregular patchwork fields. A quick look on satellite imagery around 25.10° N, 102.75° E shows a stretch where the expressway scythes along a yellow‐clay slope above identical farmland patterns and a similar village cluster. The red/white engine livery also matches planes of Sichuan Airlines or Chongqing Airlines flying into Kunming from the north, which cross that area at cruising altitude.

The combination of: • a red arch roadway bridge under construction • a parallel elevated rail viaduct • a white‐railed riverside promenade • back-to-back new high‐rise residential complexes • dredging barges on a moderately wide, navigable river points strongly to the Yongjiang River in Nanning (Guangxi), where the G3001 Nanning Ring Expressway just opened a new red‐arched span alongside the Liuzhou–Nanning railway.

The street barrier fence, double-arm lamppost, blue-and-white bus stop sign and CCTV mast are exactly the style used on Beijing’s urban arterial roads. Next, I look at the Huawei shop-front: it says “HUAWEI” in Roman letters and underneath likely reads “华为授权体验店,” the standard signage for an authorized Huawei Experience Store. Huawei maintains many such stores; one of the more typical ones on a regular city boulevard in Beijing lies in Chaoyang District. The mid-rise, mid-2000s commercial-residential building above the store, complete with window-mounted AC units and a rooftop hotel sign, is characteristic of Chaoyang’s smaller busy streets outside the core CBD. Putting these clues together—the EV taxi style, the public-works fence/lamps, the bus-stop signage, the standard Huawei Experience Store façade—I conclude this is in Beijing Municipality at the county (district) level.

This combination—sunrise over new residential towers under construction across a small valley of ponds and low hills—matches the classic “sunrise over Dapeng New Town” shot taken from Wutong Mountain in Shenzhen. Key clues: 1. Guangdong Province narrows it down to major urban centres—Guangzhou or Shenzhen are the likeliest. 2. The lack of iconic skyscrapers (no Canton Tower in Guangzhou, no Ping-An Tower in Shenzhen) and the presence of cranes indicates a very new development rather than an established CBD. 3.

I considered British piers (Bournemouth, Blackpool, etc.), but all the pleasure piers I know in England had more substantial ironwork or archways, plus the sand on most English Channel beaches is much finer and less weed-choked. On the Continent, however, the famous curved wooden pier at Sopot on the Bay of Gdańsk (southern Baltic) fits very well: long, low, slender timber piles; white-washed beach behind; deck chairs on the sand; and a massive tidal range caused by storm surges yields extensive wet-sand flats at low tide that look just like this. Post-war Sopot was a popular resort—deck chairs and beach balls abounded, and many family snapshots from the 1950s show almost this exact configuration.
