Is there a site where you can find these new Bird's Eye coverage locations? Recently Salamanca (SP) and Bruges (BE) are added, but I can't find anything about it!
@ LoneStarOne: I absolutely think you're right... actually this map was meant as a joke in reaction to scalpod's hunt for an accident (see http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/32712/). ;)
Thank you, Pdunn. It's unbelievable what people can do to each other. I also found a few destroyed villages (for instance: http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/31707/) in Darfur itself. These are just a few examples: you can't imagine how many more you will find simply by searching the area...
Mehrabad International Airport remains the primary airport of Tehran but will soon be replaced by Imam Khomeini International Airport that was completed in 2004, although the exact date of the change has been postponed several times. It is located much closer to the city center than Khomeini Airport. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mehrabad_International_Airport)
The name of the estate is: Schloss Albrechtsberg. It's the first schloss (German for castle) of three in a row. Next to the right you can also see Lingner Schloss and Schloss Eckberg.
New picture of Kremlin added. This whole area is mentioned with the Kremlin.
Wikipedia: "Kremlin is the Russian word for "fortress", "citadel", or "castle" and refers to any major fortified central complex found in historical Russian cities."
Translation: Stadium of Kinshasa and the Democratic Republic of Congo, situated in the community of Kalamu. Also known as 'Stadium King Boudouin', but especially well known for the famous boxing match between Cassius Clay and George Foreman, in 1974.
Small correction: I received a post that Frank Sinatra's lived right across the street. Looking at the few pictures I discovered, I agreed that the map should be corrected.
"more packed-in-like-sardines cookie cutter homes in yet another asymetrical suburban sprawldivision". Wow! That's an amazing sentence! You should win prizes for that... ;)
Haha...terrific! I saw this bunny on the television and I tried to find it but I had no idea where to find. However: cool find! In Holland we have a saying that sounds like 'better well stolen, than bad invented'...
Don't worry, it's no big deal! It's not that I hate french town hall's or anything... I only believe that your first posts were more various, c'est ça. So keep on going!
This airport is actually used for the famous British car program: Top Gear. The racetrack is well known in Europe for the car tests performed by 'the Stig'. For more info: http://www.topgear.com/
You might remove "the other Pompeii" from the title. In fact there were several cities/villages buried by the eruption of 79 AD. It looks a little bit 'simple' to suggest that Herculaneum is the other Pompeii.
