Wow, ok, similar to Budapest. It’s Boston then?

Still not correct. It is difficult and I suppose very few can solve it. I’m not good at making these intermediate level. They are either too easy or too difficult.

How about I give you half of the answer and the reasoning. It might still take an effort to get the other half.

I give up.

No, don’t give me half answer. Maybe there will be some people more passionate about riddles. If you give half answer, it might be too easy because of google.

Half of the answer to the riddle

Picture shows hills. Specifically seven Hill of Rome, but that’s not as important although it coincides well with thr second part. The clue is ‘the biggest of this type’s formation’. That should make you think of thd biggest hill, which i presumed to be a mountain. Mountain is part of the city’s name, but not in that form. The true for will make more sense once you figure out the second clue.

Its blurred so you have to click on it to see.

Juneau

Nope. Does the reasoning and clue make sense or is it still too vague?

Well Alaska has number 1 highest mountain. But now I truly give up. I am not good with those stuff.

But you stilk need to tie in the dinosaur somehow. It’s an important clue as well. Although it could be resigned that it’s one of the taller dinosaurs, although maybe brachiosaurus is taller, but I wouldn’t expect people to know that.

the instinct is to zero in in USA as natives and whites met here, but I’m actually thinking of Canada since it also has natives and whites met them there as well

Now I truly give up, even though I said many times. Thank you for your offer though. But I just can’t.

Would you like the answer?

To be honest, I would prefer more like Akinator type of questions and answers. You know Akinator? Guessing the answers on google? The mind reading genie?

I don’t , but I just read about it. We played something like that’s here with famous movie quotes or movie names from clues about the movie.

I was also thinking of riddles that would involve posting pictures of somewhat famous landmarks in world cities and figuring out where it it. It doesn’t have to be really famous and would depend more on doing a proper Google search from clues in the picture. I did similar stuff a few times when people would send me a picture and I would figure out where they were. It wasn’t their intent and it may have seemed more like I’m stalking 😧 but I like the challenge.

Is the dinosaur a tyrannosaur or is it a different carnivorous therapod?

This is how he asks you of your character, object or anything. And if you know about it, he always 100% guesses. https://en.akinator.com/theme-selection

Second part of the answer

picture shows tyrannosaurus rex. Short form T. Rex. Clue says ‘first letter silent - designation’. So ‘T’ is silent and you have only ‘Rex’ left. Rex in Latin means King (common knowledge), plus hills of Rome coincidentally hint at language. Designation might not be best tern, but I was looking for a relationship of King is a Royalty. So two words to form the name of the city is Royal Mountain - in Canada (reds and whites)

Tyrannosaurus

So something to do with the tyrant lizard. I need to be species specific or is all I need to know in the genus name tyrannosaur?

I just tried and in 25 questions the correct answer was guessed. Interesting. I wonder what is the greatest number of questions that it takes to get the answer.
