Strictly speaking, St. Peter's Bascilica isn't a monastary.

Am I anywhere near the right track?  There's a lot of famous castles I can waste my time  guessing.
Title: Re: GTPC #160

It is not a castle.

It's kind of strange...it looks like a religious statue at the rear, but a couch or day bed on the right side behind a well or pool of some sort.

my 20/20 vision is not the same as your 20/20(supposedly) vision.

btw, it looks like that person is standing next to another pool.

Are we looking at the same picture?  I can't make out much of anything behind that guy.  I don't see any statue back there, that's for sure.

The statue is POSSIBLE... but I CAN see that the guy is standing beside an identical pool-type thing.

Well the benches are modern, and its not in the United states or there would be safety railings around the pools.   Its archectual design looks old but it appears to be recently restored and/or very well kept. 

Is it in Russia?

It is neither in Europe/Russia or the US. The Egypt comment was the best so far.

No. Petra is very good though as this is a similar city, just that it is built  under the ground instead of carved into a mountain.
