    You sure it's not in Guangxi? Looks very familiar...

    edit: Yangshuo region (your coordinates) is in Guangxi. I knew I'd seen the place before.

    Can't you post something else? This one can be found with reverse image search (it's the duomo in Amalfi)

    I always post stuff like this, I also do not use reverse image search but search by looking at the pic.

    I always check a reverse image search (Tineye) whether I'm posting a pic or whether I'm guessing, just to make sure it doesn't return any results.

    Yeah, looks like Lol isn't posting a new one, so it's up for grabs. Sorry if my post caused some confusion.

    From the pic it can be deduced that at least this part of the building most probably has a square plan, with a central pillar or column. That was enough to find it in google, because that is apparently one of its distinctive features. Initially I was barking up the wrong tree alltogether, thinking it might be an ancient synagogue or something.

    No no, there's no connection with Rome II!
