Where in the World is Gary? #294

This new series is a throwback to the game, “Where in the World is Carmen San Diego?” I will give a brief description of a place, including its latitude and longitude and several “interesting” facts about the location. I will also try to include a picture or two from my visit to the place. You, the reader, can then hazard a guess to answer the question posed in the game.

I will reveal the correct location on the following day. Hopefully, this type of post will encourage interaction and perhaps stimulate comments. Good Luck!

The answer to yesterday’s place (#293) is Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming, USA

A fountain inside features 12 lions, representing the hours of the day, the months of the year and the signs of the Zodiac.

Honeycombed ceilings are part of the ornate splendor.

The gardens here (Generalife) are another highlight — they give a Koranic vision of paradise to believers.
