We can see a lot of rubble in the foreground, so I wondered if this was somewhere that had been bombed near the time this photo was taken.

Also the building on the hilltop looks like it has a gilded dome, like you see on an orthodox church.

Any sugegstions where it could be?

that picture is of the beginning of the praia grande (macau) during a period of reclamation. one of those buildings is the former liceu.  reclamation was ongoing in this area from the 20s as it was prone to flooding the whole of down town.
