Size It Up Landmarks answer: September 28
The five Landmarks silhouettes for September 28, with the true sizes. If you have not played yet, this page is a spoiler — play these five first, then come back to argue with the numbers.
Day 25 ran from Angkor Wat (65 m) to the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge Main Span (1.991 km). The widest gap was round 2, Eiffel Tower against National Monument (Monas), at 2.5×; the closest call was round 3, Palace of Culture and Science against Verona Arena, only 1.6× apart — the kind of round that separates a 90 from a 60.
