Leigh

 

I first visited that temple in 1970. It was a lot less colourful then. I don't have a photo of it but I have it on a slide. I took hundreds of slides in Singapore because the film was so much cheaper than in Oz.

getting colder, try east and you may snag the location.

I didn't think it was Rothenburg that is a walled town. I'll try Nuremburg?

The list maker lived here for a while.

Makes lifts too, like the one in my local Aldi.

[MicCanberra]

Correct.

On the confluence of 3 rivers, Naab, Regen and the Danube.

Just to the left of the bridge is the Sausage Kitchen , a great feed on white sausages, beer or three and the view from the first photo. Oskar Schindler from Schindlers's Ark(book), Schindler's List (Movie) lived there post war for a while before going to Argentina.

Caves in Halong Bay?

[Blackduck59]

Good clues Mic. Lynn and I were in that area but not there. We were in Rothenburg, and Wurtzburg. It didn't look like Munich so I was playing google map. So near yet so far 😟

Yes, they are everywhere, like the descendants of those he saved.

[lyndarra]

Yippee.

Next pic, where is it. Bonus point for naming the feature.

The feature is a yellow bus, common in the US as a school bus.

But it's not a US-style bus, the back of the US buses overhangs the rear axle by a long way and looks really weird.

It is a toy bus on a key ring perhaps.

The fingers are more of a clue, they are pointing towards the answer.

LOL. I actually meant the architectural feature, I'd overlooked the yellow school bus.

The bus is a Geocaching Travel Bug. Travel bugs can travel around the world. Some have a goal. It travelled with me to the USA and back. This one has travelled over 140,000klm. You can see its origin and travel map here
