south-west coast of wales. it's one of those places that's a city by virtue of having a cathedral, even though the population is probably something like 150  :laugh:

some people will tell you istanbul is the most populated european city at something like 12 million but that is the entire province of istanbul. the city itself is more like 5m


Same with London. Londons population is around 20 million, greater London. The city itself built by the Romans is only 1 square mile I think. But nowadays anything considered in side of the M25 is London or greater London

You sure  ???

Sure, I'm sure.

There is a lake in Djibouti called Lake Asal which has a salinity level of approx. 35% while the Dead Sea is a mere 23%.

But if you wanted to take it one step further the Don Juan pond (antactica) is 42%. It stays liquid (unfrozen) down to temps lower than -50C.

Interesting that one, because of the amount of salt it doesnt freeze is that right ?
