The mass of overhead wires in Japan / Korea is because of frequent seismic activity. Much quicker to put back a few fallen wires than to repair massive underground disruption. Well done on the progress in recognizing written Korean, BTW! (True there were no circles included in the sign you looked at, but that's relatively unusual because the circle stands for the sound "ng", which crops up A LOT in Korean.)

22:09 i was just screaming at the screen saying taiwan lol then i forget i live in hk so i know exactly what it looks like and it does NOT look like that here's some pointers for next time: Hong Kong's more urban, so if its sort of rural/less big roads its usually New Territories, but those part are not as dense like in Taiwan. Taiwan's houses/residential area looks more JAPANESE because it was occupied in WW2 for quite some time. Taiwan has more motorcycles. and when i say more, i mean MORE. if you see motorcycles in Hong Kong, its usually expensive. Hong Kong has british like license plates. White in front, Yellow at the back. If its the urban part of Macau, it's VERY Portuguese. I mean you'll see the paved roads and think am i in portugal? The smaller island of macau is filled with new casinos (north) and VERY rural houses (south) And yea, all three use traditional chinese writing, so the writing WILL look the same. You've got to look at the street signs. if it's black and white like in britain, and has English names, it's Hong Kong. If it's green it's usually Taiwan.

Hong Kong drives on the left (former British colony), so that can be ruled out since all the cars in the pic are LHD. Also almost every building in Hong Kong is a high-rise or near one. Also very few scooters in Hong Kong. Not enough English writing for Singapore. Bottom line: If it's a bit shitty and grimy it's often Taiwan (sorry Taiwanese, I love you)

I've always found it rather confusing that Tom doesn't look at the steering wheel placement of parked cars and only gauges whether they're driving on the left or right if it places him in the middle of a busy road. Even if it's a country where there's a mixture of RHD and LHD vehicles, you can usually tell whether it's LHD or RHD dominant. That being said, he also nailed Vladivostok in another video by accurately pointing out that even though Russia is LHD, imported RHD cars dominate the streets in that region because it's much closer and cheaper to bring them in from Japan.

Just a heads up, in several videos you say Belgium and France can’t be told apart but as a Belgian who also lived in France and the Netherlands I can tell you that architecture wise it’s really different most of the time. There’s a lot of red bricks used without white pattern in Belgium while there’s usually more stone houses in France. Some northern French towns do use brick a lot but the pattern, type and general look of the buildings are usually different.

had a damn good one here if I say so myself 1. Spotted wheelie bins saying Nancy so got to the city pretty quick, and ended up pretty close. Would've guessed some random French city otherwise though. 4,997 2. Recognised the Korean, got mid-level city vibes so went for Daejeon. 4,600 3. Recognised the yellow bus stops as being Liverpool, then the big sign and BMW dealership made it pretty easy to pin down the location. 5,000 4. Signs being in Spanish and something that looked almost like Spanish but not quite - got me thinking Catalonia, spent ages scrolling around Barcelona but couldn't find anything that looked right (most of the roads there are at 45 degree angles and this one wasn't) - eventually had the idea of trying Valencia, was lucky enough to spot a bar called "Cavallers" and got down to the exact spot. 5,000 5. Thought it was Taiwan from the street sign and general look of the place, didn't know the city. Went with Taichung since it's central. 4,528 Total - 24,124 record: beaten!

Round 1 (4996 pts): Knew it was France by the cars/architecture. Zoomed in on the garbage can and could faintly make out "Grand Nancy". Searched around for a bit and then placed my marker in the middle of Nancy. No street name or anything to specify the location further. Round 2 (4203 pts): Knew it was Korea based on writing and cars. Had literally no idea where in korea it could be, so I tried to go somewhere flat because I couldn't see any mountains. Ended up going in Incheon which was NOT the best guess Round 3 (5000 pts): Pretty easy round. Spawned right in front of junction sign. Figured we were in liverpool because of the airport sign. Saw sign for "Great Howard St" and searched the map. Found the Williams BMW on the map and lined myself up with the bus stop. Round 4 (3398 pts): Knew it was Spain almost immediately but had a very hard time picking which city to go. Had to guess and ended up going with Seville because most of the streets started with calle and I saw a sign that started with calle. I know it stupid but I was desperate. Did not see the blue sign :c Round 5 (1666 pts) Really thought this one was Japan. Thought the writing looked Japanese. Placed my guess in Fukuoka Total: 19263pts

Completely random guess in Daegu, honestly thought I had clicked on Daejeon and was disappointed to see your result lol - I was only a kilometer away! 4995 pts 3. Same as you :) 5000 pts 4. The image is totally different now, there's a restaurant called "La Valenciana" - I scoured far and wide for the street names and the best I could do was finding some historic market, there was a sign for the "mercado" district which I guessed could be the market district. Wasn't too far off, I ended up 366 m over, which came out to 4999 points - not bad, but kind of devastating to lose that point after how long I looked lol 5. Also a different image now, there was a fan called "dc inverter" that I saw the last time geoguessr dropped me in Taiwan, and it looked similar to that last image, so went for an educated guess in Taiwan, I said Taichung City because it's in the middle, so not bad. 4535 pts It's 3:43 AM but totally worth it bc I beat you lmao (24517 pts).

A good tip for Taiwan: just about every street will have that fan-shaped fixture that you see sticking out of the building on the left side at 17:55 behind the AC unit. It's often illuminated with colorful flashing LED lights and it denotes the location of a hair salon I believe. It really is on just about every street in the cities. Often you can see half a dozen of the from one view.

Obvious France, I get 4250, but man he does really well. 2. Korean, no inclination as to where in Korea, so I went with Daegu, fairly central. Thinking not Seoul? But who knows. He goes Daejeon, and I get the MONEYYYYYY 4996 let's goooo. 3. I found it, this has to be a 5k. wasn't too hard to deduce where we were based off the sign. Found only a couple roads that were PERFECTLY north-south, and quickly located the Williams dealerships, the costco thing. Pretty easy. I'd be shocked if he didn't get this 5k, this is his wheelhouse. 5000 4. Thinking obviously Spain, and about to go somewhere random - when I decide to peek at the Graffiti. BAM. Malaga! It could be meaningless, or it could be EXACTLY where we are. So I went in Malaga after briefly looking for the two street names. Let's see what he does. Huh, I missed that that sign said Valencia..... interesting. I wonder who's right. Fuck's sake, of course he is. Troll Graffito. I get 3572. 5. idk what I'm doing, but I feel like it wasn't Japan or japanese writing. So I went Taiwan. I could be so wrong. But I went Tainan city because it didn't look like the capital if it is Taiwan. I considered Hong Kong, that's where he's going. He could be right. I don't understand why he discounted Taiwan so quickly. The English writing? I've seen that in Japan, Taiwan, and Korea. YES I'M RIGHT OMG, and it was FREAKING TAINAN CITY AS WELL. 4995 let's GOOOOOOOOOO. Final score 22813. Holy smokes. Great for me. If it wasn't trolled by a graffito maybe I would've searched harder and seen the Valencia sign, and this would have been 1500 better.

1. Guys, I have to brag about this one. I saw "Grande Nancy" on a green trash container, so I felt pretty sure about the city. At the end of a street you can vaguely see a weird pattern, which seems to be several parallell tunnels or overpasses (I thought it was a toll road). I went into Nancy looking for a toll road with parallell pay stations, but then I noticed that the railroad has 10 parallell tracks. So I looked through the city for a road in southern direction that would overlook this shape of railroad track in the background. 3 min and behold, I nailed it 5000! I'm proud like a child who done well at school, cause I knew not many would get this one. 2,3,4 went great, only 500 points down, blew a great run on guessing Japan instead of Taiwan.

Unfortunately I didn't carefully read the sign that said "Valencia" and went for Barcelona. ~300km 5- I was hesitating between Hong Kong and Taiwan, and went for Hong-Kong because I thought it looked more "urban" and "civilised". ~600km 21645 points, still happy with this score !

Guessed in Reims. 2. 4705 - Knew it was South Korea from the writing, didn't know where so guessed Busan. 3. 4991 - Knew it was Liverpool from the sign, got pretty close but couldn't be bothered to find the exact location. 4. 4037 - The buildings plus the spanish writing meant it was Spain. Wasn't sure which city. I saw the billboard but didn't make out Valencia. Guessed in Madrid. 5. 4288 - Saw traditional Chinese characters plus lots of plants in the city, so my immediate guess was Taiwan. Went for Hsinchu City in the north.

The one in Valencia you were right, it's not catalonia but they still speak catalan or valencian

23,117. r1 it says Nancy on the bins. r4 I didn't see Valencia on the sign - I went for Barcelona. only certain cities call their streets "carrer" instead of "calle". r5 the green Chinese/English signs are pretty distinctively Taiwanese. cheers

1st Round: Thought France but went Marseilles. 3233 2nd Round: Went for a city called Cheongju. Very similar score to the wizard. 4552 3rd Round: Have very little idea of British geography but deducted we were in Liverpool and found the mini dealership. 5000 4th Round: Ended up in Barcalona for some reason. Not too bad though. 4029 5th Round: Went Hong Kong as well. Rip. 3200 20014 was my total. Pretty good for me.

The reason cables are often run above the ground in Asia is because it's much easier to repair them after earthquakes. Kinda surprised that didn't cross your mind

"rue is a bae" 🙃 Spoilers ahead: Round 1 - got france but somehow thought it would be south: 3173 Points Round 2 - got south korea but went in the outskirts of seoul: 4308 Points Round 3 - Well that was easy 😂 5000 Points Round 4 - spotted to valencia sign straight away and guessed i would be close to the center by the looks of the street. had some shopping vibes to it for me. found the street right away too (by chance): 5000 Points Round 5 - Went for Shanghai for the same reasons you stated with he english road names etc and was sure id beat you when you placed your marker :( 2635 Points Total: 20116 Points (1742km) vs your 22781 (747km). The France one annoys me but am satisfied with the rest.

I played the challenge before watching your vid, but in fact I mirrored any of your guesses except for R4, where I did not see the Valencia billboard, but found a "Ultras Malaga" graffiti on the wall instead, so I went for Malaga there. In the last round I was so torn between HK and Taiwan and I didn't remember that HK had LHD. If I remembered that, I would have beaten you in this challenge. Still a decent overall score of 21363

1 month late but it was an extremely close game so I came to post about it : ) R1: 4990. Missed the "Nancy" bin label but worked it out from the architecture, estimating latitude from the environment, and the hill in the distance. Was very proud of this one. R2: 4234. Spent 30 minutes reverse-engineering Hangul using the map labels to work out the sign said phonetically "Se-Tak" so I could try to find districts with that name. Eventually gave up and picked a random (wrong) city. At least it wasn't Jeju. Afterwords I googled and found out that Se-Tak meant "laundry". Naturally. R3: 4998. This Liverpool one is pretty easy to get 5000 on but I accidentally picked the wrong BMW dealer 500 m north. R4: 4025. Very unfortunately missed the obvious Valencia sign and picked Madrid. R5: 4550. Correctly pegged the country as Taiwan. Picked Taichung City as it was in the middle of the country, it was wrong but it got me the points. Final score: 22797 to your 22781. Won by 16 points, first time I beat you : ) I spent 100 minutes to your 25 though. Going super tryhard just this one game has given me tons of appreciation for your skill at this. Looking forward to more videos, I love your channel!

This one was pretty damn fun. 1. How? How do you always do this? What a ridiculous guess. It personally reminded me of Grenoble which I once visited, has hills all around as well. So my score wasn't that great. 2. Went a bit too far north so got a smaller score. Kind of a boring round, just a pure guessing game. 3. This one was pretty easy to get. The signs, the name of the street, the shops and stuff. Got a perfect as well. 4. God, that's one lucky sign. I too spent way too long scrolling around but I finally did manage to find the street. So I beat you there with a perfect score. 5. I managed to get Taiwan. From the few games I had there, it did kinda look like this. Got 4,5k. Overall got 22724, so only like 60 points behind you. I'll take it.

1. The signs and cars are clearly hinting on France, but where in France, no idea... Probably not an enormous city so I went for Bourges, 3943 points (well played with Nancy) 2. Looks like Japanese writing to me. But this could litterally be everywhere in Japan, for my knowledge at least. So a safe gamble, going for the middle, so that means Tokyo. Well that's a bummer, 2446 points. 3. The signs kinda gives away that it is the UK, and although I dont really know the geography of the UK, maybe this one is possible te get exactly right. The A5036 is really confusing me, the map doesn't seem agree with the sign. And apparantly there are 2 parts of the A5036 (cheated a little bit, I googled the A5036, but I will keep that by myself :p) so I finally found it. 5000 points 4. Spain, possibly in Catalunya, checked it with the word for street/road, so probably somehwere in Barcelona. Could not find the exact location, got 4036 points in the end, totally missed the Valencia sign :( 5. I hope the letters don't fool me again, going for Japan again, Nagoya this time around. Aaaaand I got fooled again... 1104 points -_- In total 16529, not really one of my better rounds this one, even with a little bit of cheating
