Mystery City

Salem, Oregon ?

 

Nope, not Salem...
the city is rather in the middle of the US,
seen from west to east...

 

Nope, not Omaha, the population of the city is about half a big as
the population of Omaha. Another hint? -> the city lies next to
one of the 50 longest rivers on earth.

 

St. Louis has over 300.000 inhabitants, that is 3/4 of Omaha's
population...
And the river Mississipi is longer than the named river...

SO, a city with about 200.000 inhabitants, lying next to
one of the 50 longest rivers on earth, with an airport
close to the center and a former railway bridge now being
a pedestrian bridge...
And, the top employing company of Memphis, Tennessee,
had been founded in the Mystery City...
If you know that Memphis has one of the world's largest freight
airports, you will get of which company we're talking about...

 

Little Rock, Arkansas?

 

Well just to clear up someone's mind, I wasn't in the chat when I guessed.

 

It is alright guys, who cares how you found out the city
as long as you did not get the answer straight from the source... me
SO, yes, Pamascus, you're right, and it is your turn!

 

Nope, very far from La Paz. But the country of this city was colonized
by the Spaniards just like Bolivia.

 

Another hint: It is the oldest district and the historical part of the city which population is in the millions.

 

Lima, Peru.

 

It is located in a different continent. Try harder.

 

That's the city. Your turn Peter

 

Bursa, Turkey ?
