That looks like the view from Hartside Cafe.  Or, possibly, from one of the bends further west down the road.
I was tempted to put it in the Snow Pics thread, but it's a chance for someone to show off by naming the hills.

Not the cathedral, but close enough.  It's Mary's Column in Marienplatz, Munich, with the new Rathaus in the background.

Judging by this forum that would make it London, but it doesn't exactly look like it!
