No wonder we can't find it 😉.

Well I did say in the earlier post that the visit technically wasn’t part of a river cruise. 🤷🏻‍♂️
We docked right in the central part of the city, within walking distance of this -

With this new hint, I'm going to guess Seville on the Guadalquivir River – which is served by CroisiEurope's La Belle de Cadiz rivership.

Thats it!

We visited Seville, with OAT on Grand Circle Cruise Line’s MV Corinthian. While not river cruises we have enjoyed a number of OAT small ship cruises. 
Corinthian on the left in a different river city.

Had no idea that cruises on the Guadalquivir were a "thing". Just checked-out CroisiEurope's website to see what places are visited on these sailings. Looks interesting.

The river extends farther upstream than the cruises go, but it isn't navigable all the way. There was a discussion of this earlier in this thread, when we clarified that the Guadalquivir qualifies under the rules of the game.

Thinking about Seville reminded me of the phrase 'castles in Spain.'  This castle is definitely not in Spain but it is on a river, which you need to name:

Rules? I didn’t know there were rules. I only picked up this thread recently. 🤦🏻‍♂️

The location is supposed to be accessible from a river cruise, either directly, as an excursion, or a pre- or post-cruise extension.

Ha Ha CPT, now you have to read the whole thread...all 178 pgs.  

 

It is nice to see you posting here again though...:)

Aaah the text is on that side! That definitely is unique for its location.

A very interesting place, although I have only seen it from a dayboat.  [ACL does have overnight cruises up the Hudson, to fit the rules of this game!]

Sound of Music Pavilion at Helbrunn Castle on the outskirts of Salzburg. River Salzach, Austria 

[Canal archive]

I’ve just seen the castle and remembered a river cruising programme it was on, not to self remember to expand the ‘little gray cells’. I knew I should have done the Sound of Music tour but I’d seen the first part of the film so many times in my youth as a cinema usherette for pocket money I couldn’t be asked to do the tour. CA

Incorrect. I wish I had been able to do that tour but so much to do in Salzburg, so little time.
