Not right now, maybe tomorrow

Reminds me of something from "The Lost Cities of Gold"...

I had the idea from the Mysterious Cities of Gold, however I really can't remember whether the place was in one of the episode

Something from Mexico, maybe?

Not in Mexico. More in the south

Not far, but this is a famous place, please give a name

Hahahahaha! I won!

Machu Picchu, Peru! This was my 2nd idea after Mexico, and I found the exact same picture looking for "Peru" in Wikipedia!

As I was saying, it could pass off as the ancient Echidna city:



See? (Jeez, that one guy's chopped in half)

But, I'm going with Astro Forever's "guess".

You did? I won't get my pictures from Wikipedia in the future Obviously, obfuscating the file name isn't enough with you
So, maybe you can tell me whether this place appeared in the Mysterious Cities of Gold?

Even if I hadn't found the picture there, I would have submitted Machu Picchu. I had it on the tip of my tongue, that's why I searched for "Peru" in Wikipedia.

It's not like I actually remember watching the episode or little live video at the end, but I'm sure it was. I'm sure that's where I heard about it first.

I'm pretty sure it was in the "documentary" part of the cartoon, if not the cartoon itself.

I'm quite sure it was. Morever, the place looks "familiar", as if I had seen scenes in it. But it may be only wishful thinking...

According to this map on wikipedia, it was: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_Myst%C3%A9rieuses_Cit%C3%A9s_d'or#Parcours

Did you know that this map is false? The city of gold is not at the middle of the 4 other locations Nevertheless, it is probably correct about Machu Picchu.
