I tried to guess where the photo had been taken.
I couldn’t recognize the letters shown in the photo. It might be the alphabets, but it might be Arabic. Chinese letters were less likely.
I thought the flags at the four upper corner of the tram might be the key of the identification of the location.
They might be national flags.
They seemed to provide a yellow crescent or circle in red background.
I searched the national flags at the internet but I couldn’t find the perfect match.
One resembling flag was Chinese flag, which has yellow stars creating
a round circumference in red background. But I thought it was different from the flags in the picture.
Another candidate was Turkish flog, which has a white crescent in red background.
Maybe they were Turkish flogs. The difference of white-and-yellow was merely a matter of light reflection.
Looking at the photo carefully, I found one peculiar thing. There were almost only men! I could count 19 people in the picture. I would like to exclude 2 people from account, because I could see only the part of their body and I couldn’t tell their gender. Excluding the two, among 17 people in the picture, there seemed to be only one woman. Rest 16 people seemed to be men.
I can’t see such things in Japan. Maybe there is a cultural difference. It might be because of Islamic culture where women tend to keep household.
So I concluded it might have been taken in Turkey.
Of course I’m not quite sure, because my reasoning have only weak evidence.
