Cities of the World [One Image per Post]

[jmsepe 2,038]

As a site that is dedicated to different city building games, it would only be natural that among us here are city aficionados and connoisseurs. So I am starting a thread wherein everyone can post images of any cities around the world. It may be a skyline, a rural area, a park, transportation etc as long as you want to share them.

To limit though, it should at most be one image per post and there should be a caption of what city is featured in the image. 

 

To start off, let me give this beautiful gem.

P.D.: yes, every dot in those hills is a house; Valparaíso has a population of 1 million people.

Valdivia, Chile. That weird part of our territory, that looks as anything but chilean: grown between the volcanoes and the interminable rain, inhabited by mapuche, colonized by spaniards, grown by germans and rebuilt (after the biggest historical earthquake ever) by chileans, is home to the only navegable river in the country and hosts a population of 150.000.
