Where in Washington state is this?

St. Louis, Missouri, USA
I have been using google maps to find where this photo was located for a 100 year anniversary of my company. This is STL city limits (I think) this was roughly around 1924 and it looks like a tornado recently went through this area because of the trees in the back. Anyone know where this is at?

Where in early 1960s France is this
I have an old b+w hand colored and looks like sepia toned photograph of my late mother from before I was born. It was taken in the early 1960s, 1963 most likely. I believe it was taken in France. Can anyone identify the exact location and what is the river and castle like building in the background?

Anybody help me spot the street of my great grandfather in Czech republic?
Hi all, I'd would like to know if anyone recognizes this street I believe is near Karlovy Vary where my great grandfather used to live.
I'm in Czech Rep. right now and would like to visit this place. My great grandfather was born here but late emigrated to Peru and never returned, it is just some piece of our family history that was lost.
Thanks

Looking for a few rural locations in Japan from Grudge movie
I'm looking for the exact or rough locations for a few stills from a movie, probably taken somewhere in the Ichihara area in Chiba Prefecture. It's a long shot but maybe someone recognizes the area. I couldn't ask it in any Japanese thread because they don't allow pictures for some reason. For all I know, it could be shot inside a studio of some sort but I doubt that's case.

My little brother found a year ago that image in the app 500px and now is his dream to visit there, but he couldn’t find alone, where was this taken guys?
Here some informations that he wrote that may help or not:
Flowers: the blue, white and yellow flowers in the image above are probably an Aster Alpinus/Blue Daisy/similar flowers(blue flower), Black Picão/Morocco Tea(white flower) and Iceland Poppy/Poppy -california (yellow flower).
Vegetation: Grasses, probably on sandy or clayey soils. Prada/field and Altitude Vegetation.
All this information is approximate and deductions
And here is probably the original link of the image: https://500px.com/photo/262737813/%E6%98%9F%E7%A9%BA%E4%B8%8B%E7%9A%84%E9%82%A3%E7%89%87%E8%8A%B1%E6%B5%B7-by-%E4%BA%A6%E9%9B%B7yilei-null

Mountain with stairs…
I saw this on a now deceased friend’s fb page. He used this image as his cover photo. I’m just curious as to where it was taken because it’s so interesting to look at! I’m assuming it’s a Spanish speaking country; possibly somewhere in Latin America? Much appreciated x
