If I remember right, that's Mt. Ngauruhoe as seen from the Tongariro crossing, with Mt. Ruapehu in the background. Climbed Ngauruhoe with a buddy when on that hike about 10 years ago. The whole crossing is an awesome experience, highly recommended!
Mt Ngauruhoe is Mt Doom in the Lord of the Rings films. You see this view when doing the Tongariro Crossing, one of the best day walks in the world. Did it last year, just fantastic.
I made a few quizzes similar to this one for anyone who enjoys this sort of thing, using pictures I took myself. You can find them all here (the "Countries/Cities/Places My Car Has Been" quizzes)
Is the Norway picture a famous building or an architecture type as the identifying aspect? It was the one I did not know and would love to learn something new
stave church. Built without nails. So a famous building (in Norway) and type of building (in Norway). Thats the Heddal church south west of Oslo. The biggest and I think oldest surviving example
Never heard of a country named "Israel/Palestine," or one named "Palestine," for that matter. Jetpunk has been consistent about not recognizing it, not sure why this quiz should be any different.
I mean anyone with any sense could read into the tone of the original comment and come to the conclusion that the person who wrote it did not think it was 'fine'.
Not really sure why someone would have a problem with recognising Palestine as an answer though, seems more than reasonable to me!
If you are a Kiwi, and you haven't done the crossing, maybe you should!
Only got New Zealand because I am from there and have done the Tongariro Crossing.
I'd transform it into a "guesd the selected picture" quiz, to make it more challenging.
