For this section, I did a reverse image search using google lens and found the name of the location as shown below.

From the above search we now know the location is lisbon where there is a mall called vasco da gama, but wait with history I know vasco da gama was a Portuguese explorer, with that we can now head to google maps and search for vasco da gama mall in Lisbon, Portugal and see where the image was taken as shown below.

As seen above the structure in our image is right in front of the vasco da gamma mall, from the image challenge, the photo was taken from the top of the escalator. The entire place is called Parque das Nações.

Answer: **Parque das Nações, Lisbon Portugal**

For this section, we had to find the poster in the image in which it is an event advert form there we shall get the year when the photo was taken as event adverts are usually dated when they will happen.

We shall play around with google earth pro street view and time adjustments to see if we can find the poster from the image as shown in the challenge photo and probably find the link in the poster as well.

We have been able to identify where the poster was placed on the wall. Tried to play around with the street on google earth pro but I was unable to find the year of the poster, I decided to look up closely on the image and try to read the readings on the poster by cropping the image to have the poster alone and perform a reverse image search for the poster as shown below.

the image of the poster cropped from the main picture.

Performing reverse image search, I was able to get the name of the event and write-ups too as well. Now the event is Tutakhamon this is according to venice searching on google for the same event that happened on Portugal I found the the following.
