Stupidly hard work quiz (help!)

[ApocalypseNowt]

If anyone remembers previous years my work sets a stupidly hard quiz for us to have a go at every Christmas. This year's is no different....

I've managed to complete the first 8 puzzles myself but now I'm stuck Very frustrating as I've got the gist of the puzzles but can't figure out what the answer is!

Here's the first one and here's my answers. If anyone can figure out the final answer (two words 5,7) I'd be ever so grateful 😊

And in case it needs to be more specific, it’s the Duomo in Florence and Gamla Stan in Stockholm.

17 florence

2 looks like Havana Cuba - can’t be more specific I’m afraid.

27 is definitely the Gatehead Millennium Bridge

19 Christ the Redeemer, Rio De Janeiro.

12 looks like the canals in Amsterdam

6 is Mamayev Kurgan World War II memorial complex with the statue The Motherland Calls in Volgograd, Russia,

@Lils11

16 looks like Epcot?

Yeah I think the same

So the location is florida and if they are being really picky Lake Buena vista.

The pictures are a bit low resolution for me, but if the writing in 3 is Japanese then I think it’s Tsutenkaku in Osaka - but not confident in this answer!

I think 13 is the Berlin victory column

Is 11 Bourbon Street in New Orleans?

@Lils11

Yep, 27 is Newcastle. I think it's called the Gateshead Millennium Bridge and the building that looks like a slug on the side is called the Sage.

14 is Edinburgh.

It's Gateshead/Newcastle (depending on which side of the bride your on) but it's not the millennium bridge. The millennium bridge is the new one that moves. This one is the old one that you run over for the great north run.

It's just called the Tyne bridge

Ok I’ve just done some Google image searches and now I’m confident in my Tsutenkaku Osaka answer.

Could 11 be New Orleans? It's got that vibe as far as I can tell

It's the Tyne bridge, the millennium one looks like the one in Glasgow. Like an eye.

Is 14 Prague?

If anyone needs a close up photo taking of any of them, let me know & I'll do it when I get back

Was the crossword puzzle solved?

And while I’m on the subject of Japanese towers, 24 looks like the Tokyo Tower (in Tokyo of course!).

Yes rose gold , answer was "two meanings"

Oh shit and bollocks, it is
Ironically I live in Newcastle and see it every day
Don't know what is wrong with me.

Should be quite easy to reverse image search these if you snip and save them. Do you just need to list the answers or is there a second stage clue?

Think 25 is Geneva. Is there any way of posting higher res pics?

Thanks OP.

I am geographically challenged so of no use on this round!

Sorry, that should be number 28. Can't count this morning!
