5 questions only:

1. I am thinking of a place that has, a Black Tower, a White Tower, a Black Church, a street that is 44 inches wide., and a mountain beside the town named after a city in Florida.

What is the name of this town. ?
What is the name of the 44 inches wide street. ?
What is the name of the mountain.?

2. This place in Bulgaria has lovely rock formations that tourist visit yearly.
There is a fortress here, built when this part of Bulgaria was part of the Roman Empire.
The rock formations were a natural protection, so the fortress was built here.

What is the name of this place.?

3. Along the Danube River there is a passage with high rock walls between Romania and Bulgaria.
What is the name of this passage.?

4. In Belgrade there is a Cathedral called St. Michaels.
In 1823 a fellow built a café by the church and called it Cathedral café.
The church objected and the council told the fellow to change the name of the café.
He did not know what to call the café.

What did he eventually call the café.?

5. I am thinking of a place ( capital of the country) that has it's lower town and upper town connected by streets name after a leg.! One is short, the other is long.!

I'm struggling to find the place "Florida" which is the source of the name of this Estonian mountain...

biboburger
The mountain in this town is not in Estonia.

The mountain has a name of a popular city in Florida in the USA

C'mon thursdaysd I know you can do one more for sure....:)

What !!!!!

I recognize the description of the Bulgarian castle, but I can't remember the name, something long beginning with "B", I think. And I probably drank in that Belgrade cafe, but...Actually, I sort of remember it AS Cathedral Cafe.

1. Brasov / Romania, String Street, Tampa

I had lunch at #4... because of it's name.

The cafe is right by St. Michael's Cathedral..
it used to be called the Cathedral Cafe...but not since 1823 !!

Christ Cafe? Serving water that turns into wine - and then once drunk eventually back into water?

The rock formations and fortress ad the town are Belogradchick.
