Mixed Destinations Trivia Questions

1. A country in Europe; a clue I'm sure Freud once here had the 'flu My choir is famed A sausage is named Like my capital city, so true Which country am I?

From Quiz
The World In Verse

Answer: Austria

The clues: Austria is in Europe. Sigmund Freud was born in Austria in Freiberg, part of the Austrian Empire. The Vienna Boys' Choir is one of the best known boys' choirs in the world, named for the capital city of Austria. Vienna sausages need no explanation, they are found in a number of countries. They are not named for the capital city though. The word 'wiener', synonymous with sausages, means 'Viennese' in German. Austria is a republic in central Europe, bordered by the Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, Slovakia, Slovenia, Italy, Switzerland and Liechtenstein.

2. As a serving soldier I was sent to this country in 1983 and then it was known as West Germany but we called it BAOR. What did BAOR stand for?

From Quiz Happy Wanderings

Answer: British Army of the Rhine

There were two BAOR deployments after WWI from 1919 - 1929 and again after WWII from 1945 to 1994. In 1994, the British Army contingent in Germany became British Forces Germany with greatly reduced numbers. As a very young soldier, I developed a love of German beer, food and yes, frauleins!

3. What city in Yemen is situated on the Red Sea, was a principle port for Sanaa, and is a noteworthy source of distinctive coffee beans?

From Quiz I'm Hungary For Some Turkey

Answer: Mocha

Mocha is a city in Yemen built along the shores of the Red Sea. Its location made it a primary port for the Yemeni capital Sanaa, though other cities have filled that role more recently. In its trading heyday, one could often see foreign ships moored at Mocha. Many foreign powers established plants at Mocha which processed coffee beans. Thus, Mocha is a common name for some coffee, and 'mocha' also refers to a coffee-brown color.

4. The archipelago known as the Inner Hebrides, Scotland, is made up of Islay, Jura, Mull, Rum, and which other well-known island?

From Quiz Reach for the Sky

Answer: Skye

Largest and northernmost of the group, the Isle of Skye has featured in several major films, including Flash Gordon (1980), and Prometheus (2012). Skye is also home to Dunvegan Castle, Scotland's oldest inhabited castle, which dates from the 12th century.

5. What is the "snow" on Mt. Kilimanjaro really?

From Quiz Natural Wonders: See Them Before They Are Gone

Answer: glacial ice

Mt. Kilimanjaro is a dormant volcanic mountain in Tanzania near the border with Kenya. It is the highest mountain in Africa and the highest free-standing mountain in the world at 5,895 meters (19,341 feet) above sea level. Kilimanjaro is in fact three separate volcanic cones that are independently named and measured. The tallest of the three is Kibo's Uhuru Peak at 5,895m (19,341'). On its highest elevations, snow may fall on parts of Kilimanjaro but the "snow" visible from the mountain is really glacial ice. While estimates vary as to how long Kilimanjaro has had "snow" from 10,000 to 30,000 years, a definitive article by geological researchers from around the world date the glaciers as 11,700 years old. Further evidence suggests that the ice cap may have covered as much as 400 square kilometers during its deepest period and that survived drought conditions that last as long as three centuries. However, the glaciers and thus the snow on top of Kilimanjaro may survive no more than a few more years. During the 20th century, it is believed that over eighty percent of the glacier has disappeared. Numerous geologic surveys of the ice field have confirmed its shrinkage and estimate that from 1912 to 1953 there was a one percent annual loss; but from 1989-2007 the rate increased to two percent a year. The thinning of Kilimanjaro's ice fields does not repeat earlier patterns observed in the ice core but is consistent with other glaciers across the globe. Though of course the subject of intense debate, at the current rate, some scientists conclude there may be no "snow" on Kilimanjaro by 2033.

6. What nation, which borders 14 other countries, has the longest land borders of any country?

From Quiz Amazing Locations

Answer: China

Only two countries have borders with 14 others - Russia and China. China has the longest land border at 22,117 km, compared with 20,241 km for Russia.

7. Ever since I saw "The Beach" with Leonardo di Caprio, I have wanted to visit that beach, and swim there (hopefully without the shark snacking on my extremities!). In which country would we find Ko Phi Phi Lee beach?

From Quiz Devious Demons' Vacation Idyll

Answer: Thailand

The filming was the cause of a significant amount of controversy. The locals were upset at the physical changes made in the terrain by the production company. The matter was taken as far as the Thai Supreme Court, which found against the filmmakers. Ko Phi Phi Lee is in the Andaman Sea. Question by MikeStears1312.

8. Most people are familiar with the legend of the Bermuda Triangle. But some people haven't heard of its counterpart. Which mythical creature lends its name to the "Pacific Bermuda Triangle"?

From Quiz Going Places with Team Animal Farm

Answer: Dragon

The Dragon's Triangle is also known as the Formosa Triangle and the Devil's Sea. Although its legend isn't as great as its Atlantic cousin's, the Dragon's Triangle has had its fair share of unexplained disappearances. There have been reports of missing fishing boats, other sea vessels, and airplanes. Some people even believe it to be the cause of Amelia Earhart's disappearance. Question by: davegrilla

9. The world's most well known (half) cat. This Egyptian sculpture has at one point lost its nose. What statue might this be?

From Quiz Geographical Felines

Answer: Sphinx

The Great Sphinx of Giza, most commonly known as the Sphinx, is a creature that has a lion's body and a human head. There is much debate as to how the Sphinx lost its nose. One theory suggests that it was one of Napoleon's cannonballs that destroyed the nose. However, one drawing of the Sphinx, created before this would have happened, shows the Sphinx already without a nose. Another popular theory is that one man was so outraged that he destroyed the nose, and was hanged for vandalism. The Sphinx was named after the creature in Greek mythology who strangled anyone who did not solve her famous riddle.

10. A 300 island archipelago I claim Visited by Cook; South Pacific my aim Capital Suva my city My beaches so pretty My rugby players are the best at the game Which island republic am I?

From Quiz The World In Verse

Answer: Fiji

The clues: The Fiji archipelago consists of more than 330 islands in the South Pacific ocean. The capital city is Suva and Captain Cook was the second explorer to visit Fiji in 1774. The rugby player clue, alludes to the fact that Fiji have won the Rugby World Cup Sevens tournament in 1997 and 2005. A number of Fijian rugby players have also been part of the New Zealand All Black and Australian Wallaby teams through the years. The Republic of Fiji was settled around 3500 to 1000 BC and is surrounded by the islands of New Zealand, Vanuatu, Tonga, New Caledonia, Tuvalu and the Samoas. The two main Fijian islands are Viti Levu and Vanua Levu, populated by over 80% of the Fijian population. Suva, the capital city, sits on Viti Levu.

11. In 1984 I was sent to an Island in the South Atlantic where I was privileged to tend the grave of great explorer, Ernest Shackleton. On which South Atlantic Island would you find Ernest Shackleton's grave?

From Quiz Happy Wanderings

Answer: South Georgia

Ernest Shackleton's grave can be found in the Grytviken Cemetery which we called the Whaler's Graveyard in Grytviken, South Georgia. There is also a memorial cross for Shackleton across the bay at King Edward Point where the British Antarctic Survey were based prior to our arrival. Grytviken was a former whaling station now very dilapidated but Grytviken does have a small church or chapel which was renovated and kept in good repair. I recall that when Britain went to war in the Falkland Islands a number of people thought the Falklands were in the Hebrides off the west coast of Scotland.

12. Agony loves to drive, especially on almost empty, well-maintained, modern highways through breath-taking scenery. One of her favourites is the David Thompson Highway. Where is the David Thompson?

From Quiz Have Guild, Will Travel - Guilders Favourites

Answer: Western Canada

I hope the name was a clue - David Thompson was a map-maker, surveyor and fur trader in northwestern North America in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. He mapped nearly four million square kilometers of wilderness in his years with the Hudson Bay Company and North West Company. The David Thompson Highway runs from central Alberta into the Rocky Mountains. My favourite portion is the 180 kilometers from the town of Rocky Mountain House to the intersection with the Icefields Parkway, which is the highway from Banff to Jasper that runs through the heart of the Rockies. I don't really understand why this wonderful stretch of road is so underused when other highways into the mountains are crammed with cars and RVs all summer, except that it might be because it doesn't lead to a town, just dead-ends at the Parkway. A few years ago we were driving down the highway about fifty kilometers east of the Banff Park gate when we saw a few cars stopped on the shoulder. This is a good indication of wildlife near the road, so we slowed. A mother black bear and her two cubs were maybe thirty feet off, eating berries and playing in the open scrub nearby. We sat there for nearly half an hour, and no more than a dozen more cars came along in that time, all of which also drifted to a stop and stayed to watch the cubs play. Alas, eventually some bozo came screeching along, slammed to a stop and leapt out of the car, camera in hand. With one cough from the mother, all three bears instantly disappeared.

13. Known as "Bern" in Middle High German, which Italian city was also one of the settings for Shakespeare's play "The Taming of the Shrew"?

From Quiz As the World Burns

Answer: Verona

Sitting astride the Adige River, Verona is located in northern Italy and is the second largest municipality in the region. Think of Verona and your thoughts immediately move to the famous Verona Arena, a stunning amphitheatre built by the Romans in 30AD. This, however, is only one of a host of important historical buildings found in this area which also boasts the Ponte Scaligero, the Basilica of San Zeno Maggiore and the Porta Borsari to name a few. The urban structure and architecture here is considered to be of such high value and importance that the whole town of Verona has been classified a UNESCO World Heritage site. Apart from "The Taming of the Shrew" two of Shakespeare's other plays were also set in Verona; "Romeo and Juliet" and "The Two Gentlemen of Verona". The question was created by Phoenix Rising member pollucci19.

14. In Kent, England, what city was originally established by monks as a port and later became home to an earl who ate his bread and meat stacked together?

From Quiz I'm Hungary For Some Turkey

Answer: Sandwich

Sandwich was established around 1028 when monks were granted a charter to establish a ferry across the River Stour in southeast England. Its name means a 'settlement on sand'. It was settling point for Flemish settlers and Huguenot refugees. The title Earl of Sandwich was created for naval commander Edward Montagu in 1660. In the mid-1700s, his great-great-grandson became famous for popularizing the idea of putting meat between slices of bread.

15. There are several "skybridge" structures around the world, but perhaps the most famous spans which twin skyscrapers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia?

From Quiz Reach for the Sky

Answer: The Petronas Towers

The Petronas Towers held the title of world's tallest buildings from 1998-2004. A double-decker skybridge links the two buildings on the 41st and 42nd floors, having been designed to "float" between the towers to compensate for high winds which cause them to sway several feet. The other choices are all twin skyscrapers, but none boast a skybridge, and none are in Malaysia.

16. What "birthplace of golf" is threatened by eroding soil causing flooding in Scotland?

From Quiz Natural Wonders: See Them Before They Are Gone

Answer: St. Andrews Golf Club

The world famous golf course is one of many coastal areas under threat from erosion and climate change. Reports by Scottish scientists suggest the "birthplace of golf" could be submerged by water by 2050 due to coastal erosion. St. Andrews, like many other of the great old UK golf courses, is a "links" course. Links courses are so named because they are set on land, often only sand dunes reclaimed from the ocean, that "link" the water to the land. Whether caused by global warming due to human activity or a result of natural cycles, the sea levels have been rising creating higher tides and heavier winds that are eroding the dunes along the estuaries that border the course. According to greenskeepers at the course, in a single day in 1997, 10 feet of land washed into the water. St. Andrews has installed gabions on the dunes and has dumped tens of thousands of cubic feet of sand on the beach to further buffer the land. Royal County Down is a links course in Newcastle, England that is at a higher elevation and suffering less erosion. Ballybunion is in the northwest of Ireland and is also a links course. Carnoustie is a wonderful links course in a small town north of St Andrews. On a bright beautiful day in 1986 I played this course and at least for a day the only thing eroding was my handicap.

17. Which canyon system in the Western Hemisphere, with a name related to a metallic patina, is at least four times more voluminous than the Grand Canyon?

From Quiz Amazing Locations

Answer: Copper Canyon

The Barranca del Cobre (or Copper Canyon in English) is a group of canyons in Chihuahua, Mexico. The name comes from the green colour of the canyon walls. Copper and other metals have been mined in the region.

18. Sounding bovine, which UK place is famed for its sailing regatta held each year in August?

From Quiz Going Places with Team Animal Farm

Answer: Cowes

Cowes on the Isle of Wight off the south coast of England, hosts Cowes Week during the first week of August each year. The ovine Sheepwash is in Northumberland, England, the ursine Bearsden is near Glasgow, Scotland and the canine Dogmersfield is in Hampshire, England. Question by: suomy

19. Great Lakes the white, Ethiopian the blue Becoming one, these tributaries two My waters, the Aswan Does certainly dam The second largest river through Which river am I?

From Quiz The World In Verse

Answer: Nile

The clues: Two tributaries, one white and one blue. The White Nile originates from the Great Lakes region in Central Africa and the Blue Nile begins at Lake Tana in Ethiopia, they then join up to form the Nile proper. The Aswan Dam is a hydroelectric dam built across the Nile River in Aswan, Egypt. The Nile is the second largest river in the world, behind the Amazon river in South America. The Nile river stretches over eleven different countries and is 6,853 metres long. It drains into the Mediterranean Sea at the famed Nile river delta. The Aswan Low Dam was opened in 1902 and High Dam was built in 1960.

20. It took George Washington Vanderbilt Junior six years between 1889 and 1895 to build what became the largest privately owned house in the USA. Which house is this?

From Quiz Have Guild, Will Travel - Guilders Favourites

Answer: Biltmore House

The Biltmore House was designed by Richard Morris Hunt and was patterned after the chateaus of Chambord, Blois and Chenonceaux. The house is a popular tourist destination and winery. Biltmore puts on a lavish Christmas display every year. Ertrum was happy to visit Biltmore House, but he wouldn't want to live there.

21. According to legend, Bern in Switzerland got its name from the first animal its founder, Berchtold V, came across on a hunt. What was this animal?

From Quiz As the World Burns

Answer: Bear

Berchtold V ordered the construction of the city in 1191 and is claimed to have named it after the first animal he killed on a hunt during its construction, namely a bear. The bear first appeared on the city's coat of arms in 1224 and has been associated with the city ever since. In fact, during the time of the Swiss Confederacy, the citizen-soldiers of Bern were depicted as armed bears. More likely, the city was named either after the Italian city of Verona, known as Bern in Middle High German, or has Celtic origins as attested to by the Bern zinc tablet discovered in the 1980s. This question was provided by Phoenix Rising member tazman6619.

22. In Britain, a 9,000-year-old skeleton was discovered near what village that was established near gorgeous limestone caves?

From Quiz I'm Hungary For Some Turkey

Answer: Cheddar

Would you like some Cheddar with your Sandwich? Humans have been present around Cheddar since prehistoric times, and the village has existed since the days of the Romans. Noteworthy sites include Cheddar Palace (built in the 9th century) and Cheddar Gorge, Britain's largest gorge and origin of a 9,000-year-old skeleton discovered in 1903. The savory cheese we now call Cheddar was first produced in Cheddar at least 900 years ago. In modern times, it's among world's most popular cheeses.

23. The State of Texas has a reputation for all things large, however, it is *NOT* the "Big Sky State." Which Western state with its capital of Helena, carries that nickname?

From Quiz Reach for the Sky

Answer: Montana

Montana is also known as "The Treasure State," and has slogans including "Land of the Shining Mountains" and "The Last Best Place." Quite something to live up to! Big Sky is, in fact, a census-designated community straddling Gallatin and Madison counties. It is home to a namesake ski resort, as well as the Moonlight Basin Ski Resort, together boasting "The Biggest Skiing in America" - something else to live up to!

24. What beautiful Italian city is sinking into the Adriatic Sea?

From Quiz Natural Wonders: See Them Before They Are Gone

Answer: Venice

Venice (Venetia in Italian) is generally considered to be one of the world's most beautiful cities. Having spent time in the city I heartily concur that you need to visit. However you may need to visit soon before it sinks completely into the waters of the Adriatic Sea. The earliest part of the city was built originally as a refuge from Attila the Hun and other eastern invaders by sinking wooden stilts into the marshlands and sedimentary islands within a lagoon off the coast of Italy. Over time the stilts have slipped further into the marshland; but Venice is also at risk with rising sea levels. Venice does not have roads but small narrow waterways called "canals" that serve as transport routes. Narrow canals are passable only by human powered boats (gondolas); while larger canals can allow water taxis to transport people to and from destinations. Venice has always been slowly sinking. Over the last 1,000 years, scientists agree the city has sunk by around 2.75 inches (7 cm) for every century, but recent reports have stated that in the last century alone, the city of Venice is sinking up to five times as fast as thought and could sink as much as 7-8 inches in the next century. This is believed to be the effect of global warming and rising sea levels as opposed to Venice sinking into its own foundations.

25. The deepest lake in United States is Crater Lake. In what state is it located?

From Quiz Amazing Locations

Answer: Oregon

The lake is approximately 5 miles by 6 miles across with an average depth of 1,148 feet. It was formed about 7,700 years ago by the collapse of the volcano Mount Mazama. Based on maximum and average depths among lakes in the world in which the basins are entirely above sea level, Crater Lake is the deepest lake in the Western Hemisphere and the third deepest in the world. reference: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crater_Lake

26. Famed for its rowing regatta, which "egg-laying" place is on a famous UK river?

Kuching became a city in 1988. The Kuching Cat Museum was founded in 1993. The museum is based around cats, but includes all things feline, including a pamphlet from the musical "Cats!" I've been told it is actually quite boring.

28. France and Spain are separated by me From the Bay of Biscay to the Mediterranean Sea A mountain range Isn't it strange That a dog shares my name, can it be? Which mountain range am I?

29. Not a capital city but I find myself in a hotel almost overlooking Fitzroy Gardens which contains Captain James Cook's cottage. In which city by the River Yarra would you find Captain James Cook's cottage?

From Quiz Happy Wanderings

There's not really much on Lundy; a church, a pub, a farm, and a number of old buildings (including a lighthouse and a castle) that have been converted into holiday accommodation. Access during the summer months is generally by passenger ferry (there are no roads as such) and in winter by helicopter. If you want to find out more, you might want to have a look at the quiz I wrote about it! Of the incorrect options, Jersey is the largest of the Channel Islands and is located off the French coast of Normandy. Skye and Iona are both Scottish islands.
