We wanted to know how much time you spend looking up in this beautiful city.
Our quiz got many of you craning your necks trying to identify the locations of our pictures, all taken above head height.
Here are the answers. How well did you, your friends and colleagues do? If you got all six you are a real high flier.

2. Roman numeral clock

It was intended as a self-contained fort, and each floor is capable of being defended separately.
