One Wonder, Two Nations: USA & Canada

Views of Xiamen, PRC, from Kinmen County, ROC, and vice versa.

I'm looking to bag this one soon and remain skeptical that these three pictures- the first two from wikipedia commons dated 1994 and the third from the corner corner forum in 2001- are the only pictures on the internet of Boundary Marker 583.

I feel like there was a flickr(?) album out there of a much more detailed report more recently but for the life of me I cannot find it. It may have been for a different international tripoint.

If anyone has info on this one it would be great to dig up. It doesn't seem difficult to access technically but for this marker to only have three pictures and none from the last quarter century just seems crazy.

Most people walk across the runway - I did that too. In case a plane lands, the gates are closing, and you have to wait until all is clear again.

In the background you can notice the two colourful rods flanking the road - the blue and white one representing the german Free State of Bavaria while the black, red and gold one represents the Federal Republic of Germany. The sign says "Attention - international boundary".

I always imagine a stern voice saying "Passage interdit" when I pass here.

Coordinates demarcate the boundaries of the two sovereign nations

Buildings go right up to the shore in Singapore. There's a university right next to those buildings.

About a mile or 1.5km away, a minute or two on a jetski if you need that perspective

Italia (Gorizia) - Slovenija (Nova Gorica)

This is the border between Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman influence on architecture in Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia & Herzegovina. It serves as a boundary between western and eastern cultures. Because the territory was ruled by both empires consecutively, the Ottoman’s established the old city while the Austro-Hungarians expanded and modernized.
