Which Balkan Country is this?

0HARDCORE@reddit

I saw the original post in a Turkish subreddit, it's south italy.

[-]

Ive-no-idea@reddit

The tiles (or stones?! Not sure of the name in english) reminds me of the ones in Greece. Could definitely be northen Greece, because it's greener

[-]

grogo_drone@reddit

I’ve seen these pavement tiles all over Spain. I always wondered why they use them, as they are ugly as f*** with their sharp flat and square shape on pavements that are everything but that.

This_Lion5856@reddit

Not a single Golf 4 in sight or BMW E320 so I am willing to exclude Bulgaria

[-]

This_Lion5856@reddit

I mean the E30 320i, an absolute classic for Bulgarian schizo driving entusiasts

[-]

keefeere@reddit

Montenegro? Was there, feel that "parking vibe"

[-]

sfsleep@reddit

can be found in Italy, Portugal and Greece as well. it's too sunny for Central Europe.

[-]

After_State4275@reddit

The roadsigns, the sidewalk and the buildings tell no lies: it's Italy. It's a street scene I have grown up with.

[-]

canyoubelieveitt@reddit

Looks like Greece. Crazy how the pavement looks the same everywhere in Balkans, and always shit.

[-]

Additional-Penalty97@reddit

It cannot be us because in our country cars dont just limit the sidewalk they literally just use it as parking space

[-]

JimB7719@reddit

It could definitely be Greece but this is not Greece.

[-]

blank_username_-_@reddit

Looks like typical scene from Bulgaria - shitty sidewalk occupied by cars. But has somewhat Mediterranean vibe. So Albania, Greece or shitty parts of Italy

[-]

demeyor@reddit

you need car to have rights. You cant have woman if no car.

[-]

GlobalNova@reddit

I would be very surprised if it’s not Greece.

[-]

Old_Resident8050@reddit

Its not Building architecture and colorization feels alien.

[-]

GlobalNova@reddit

Pretty sure I’ve seen similar colorization and architecture in Nafplio.

[-]

ClickyKeyboardNerd@reddit

Ah I saw the paving stones I thought? And the green and thought it could be greece due to those being in high frequency however Italy makes sense!

[-]

Ariciul02@reddit

Nice parking spots .. up to the wall. So pedestrians need to start learning how to fly

[-]

Elmalukat@reddit (OP)

Super rezultat me mbjelljen e flokeve vella. Urime

[-]

OriginalMexican@reddit

Yes, this is definately south of Italy

[-]

ThickCaterpillar9867@reddit

Could also be central or north but it is 10000% Italy

[-]

Moonbeam1184@reddit

Italy is not balkan, and flair up bro.

[-]

ThickCaterpillar9867@reddit

Yeah but the pic looks like Italy ,I do not have to flair up but Im Albanian if you really interested in knowing it

[-]

kostaskg@reddit

Wrong signs on the road, definitely not Greece

[-]

Sloarot@reddit

My first thought as well ... somehow it feels Portuguese.

[-]

tempestwolf1@reddit

The mountain in the barckground feels very... Iberic

[-]

7amdrei7@reddit

This looks more like southern (mediteranean) Europe than Balkan.

[-]

Classic balkan country. You go out with the baby in the stroller and your man and can't pass because of this - your man starts swearing and complaining about the idiots from small villages who did this.

Next week you go out on vacation with your man, he parks like this and says "ehhh, they still have enough space to pass, i'm not going to stroll around the hood for hours to find a better place".

[-]

Serious-Fortune-4844@reddit

It looks like Italy so it's either Albania (ma no Mercedesi) or Greece

[-]

-kenjo-@reddit

I immediately thought about Greece, but is it even Balkan?

[-]

howtobemisha@reddit

yes, it is balkan peninsula, but sounds weird i agree. It is Greece, 100%

[-]

Odd-Organization-740@reddit

Yes

IdrionRedraluin@reddit

It could easily be southern Italy too

Turkey

anvalua@reddit

Bulgaria. The best country in the world. After Romania.

[-]

Moonbeam1184@reddit

I guess Turkey, no place for pedestrians to walk on and a car is parked on top of it. Shitty house colors people deciding themselves what the color or the architecture should look like.

[-]

Archaeopteryx111@reddit

They don’t make sidewalks for pedestrians?

[-]

Eldanosse@reddit

In theory, they do. But car owners think that pavements are car parks. Though, pavements can also be theoretical themselves; sometimes they're not even wide enough for one person.

[-]

Archaeopteryx111@reddit

Oh yeah that’s all over the Balkans.

[-]

_kReddid@reddit

Every

bongiovist@reddit

not enough balkan, they can still walk

[-]

nocodenomad@reddit

Small cheap cars and the signs do not match Greece. This is almost 100% guaranteed to be Spain.

[-]

nocodenomad@reddit

Correction, it’s France the little t on the sign is the telepeage logo

These-Ad-1669@reddit

I can recognize my home country in seconds. Its is italy. Just the road, the signs, the buildings, the way people park, the small cheap cars.

brnkse@reddit

deyannn@reddit

Portuguese pavement on the sidewalk.

Any of them. All of them.

Alex_Wats@reddit

Any

[-]

Hamblin113@reddit

North Macedonia.

[-]

Girishajin89@reddit

The pavement and the way the car is parked yells Greece but the lack of graffiti on the walls and the clean signs make me feel it's a different place.

[-]

ismellsomethinggood@reddit

Looks too nice to be Serbia

Correct

[-]

NiceOil1588@reddit

:P

[-]

BigFreakingZombie@reddit

The buildings look suspiciously Italian so either Albania or parts of Greece.

[-]

Medical_Design_2978@reddit

Nah too many relevant road signs for it to be Albania

[-]

Elmalukat@reddit (OP)

Also no Mercedes

[-]

Wulkas_Code@reddit

Or just Italy! 😅

[-]

BigFreakingZombie@reddit

That was my first thought as well. Just wanted to give OP the benefit of the doubt.

[-]

absurd_whale@reddit

This image appears to be taken in Italy, likely in a southern city like Naples or a similar residential area.

[-]

Elmalukat@reddit (OP)

Messina Italy, I found it in a Turkish sub

[-]

Savings_Guitar_58@reddit

I’m Italian and I’ve never actually been to the Balkans but this photo is giving me such strong Southern Italy vibes... Don’t know, maybe it’s those classic crumbling sidewalks with weeds growing out of every crack or the cars parked right on top of them blocking the way hahaha or maybe it’s those post-war apartment blocks painted in ochre, yellow and beige with the green shutters and tiny balconies

[-]

ThickCaterpillar9867@reddit

It is Italy

[-]

Savings_Guitar_58@reddit

Yeah... Just looked up the photo using Google Lens and turns out it’s Messina, in Sicily

[-]

Megan3356@reddit

Definitely not the Balkans

[-]

ThickCaterpillar9867@reddit

I noticed that because of the road signs ,if there were no road signs I would have though balkan city 1000%

Costpap@reddit

This is not Greece, I can tell based on the road signs. But it certainly feels like something you’d run across in all of the Balkans.

[-]

Berlin

[-]

PckMan@reddit

All of them.

[-]

vukasin123king@reddit

The sidewalk is definitely Greek, from the small squares to them being arranged so chaotically.

[-]

Getoiu@reddit

No real Bulgarian would drive these cars and there’s not many AC units on the facades of the buildings, the parking sign is also unfamiliar so I’ll exclude Bulgaria.
It would not be Greece because not many AC units.
I reckon it’s somewhere with mountainous terrain and highly urbanised hence the smaller cars. The crime needs to be high because the neglected vehicles and cctv on the building. I’ll exclude Albania because no Mercedes in sight, no street dogs or cats or VW Passat so I’ll exclude Romania, so it’s got to be Bosnia or North Macedonia.
