    Didn't flip it this time, not in Japan. It's in EUROPE.

    It's Trondheim

    That was a bloody hard one, but if you look in the very top right corner, there's a building with a logo and 'Norsk S.....'
    Bit of searching and that's an (old?) logo of Norsk Stal, which I looked up in the phone book

    Trondheim is correct. I chose this one just to antagonize Athelstan too. Mission accomplished, aye?

    The church (?) looks portuguise/spanish, but the other buildings like little pagodes. I have no further idea, where that could be.

    The stone façade was built by a European and in the colonial era. However, its construction was ordered by the indigenous ruler of an independent nation.
