Hmmm.. well, I see the words Complexo and Princesa. The people look both dark skinned and more fair skinned. I'm thinking Brazil

Why? Because I searched those words and came up with some Brazilian's Facebook pages. Then I searched "Brazil City Jungle inspired sci fi" and eventually found this -and I'm glad I did. -Great work.

Then I searched "famous boardwalk brazil" and essentially found an image very similar to yours. What a wonderful trip that must have been.~

sounds_sound, can you guess which country this is?

You thought right.

Brazil's beautiful, but watch your back in Rio. It can get a little rough around there.

Rough as in violent or as in don't leave your camera unattended?

Someone tried to shake me down in Rio.

I've been to a few cities in Brazil. Rio was the sketchiest by far. Walking through Lapa was not fun.
