I was about to ask if the last 2 are also from Athens because they look so similar to Dhaka, only to realize they’re actually from Dhaka.

So what gave away for me? The interesting hexagonal-like vs the boring straight-square buildings.

Athens and Dhaka: Birthplaces and Rebirthplace of the most evil ideology: democracy.

I was in Athens last year. Agree with the bad aesthetics but it is not all bad. Loved the historical monuments. Also amazing food. Would go again if I have the chance.
