Middle East - Not Astran!

sandway:
Nmp. PLT pulling for Orient. Possibly Syria or eastern Turkey.

Looks vaguely reminiscent of Kici, a Turkish village at the top of the pass going south after Belen just before it drops very steeply down to Reyhanli where you pick up the final stretch to the border at Cilvegozu / Bab al Hawa (Syria).
