For photos of beautiful, still-inhabited locales! It can be a quick snapshot of your local town, a breathtaking pro photo of a city, or a pic of some fascinating piece of modern life.

The only real rule is that it must be an actively inhabited/used location (ie not ruins or natural locales). Otherwise, go wild. Anything that you find beautiful or interesting!

Holland at dusk (notes in post) (media.piefed.social)

Going through an old archive, I found this beaut of a shot.

These are evidently a couple of the historic, 18th century Kinderdijk windmills, of which there ~19 total in South Holland, The Netherlands. They've collectively been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997.

As for being "inhabited," I take it that they're maintained by a group of caretakers and service-people, if that counts?

This is one of the "Cinque Terre" chain of villages along the north west coast of Italy.

We had dinner in the dark brown building in the bottom left and the waitress was so drunk that she was fired shortly after serving our food. She blamed us before storming off.

There's another in the shadows...

The air is quite hazy, causing dramatic mountain layering effects everywhere you look.

Notice the snow beside the river, which has a new bridge just finished.

This is in the center of a large city, believe it or not.
