Latin American city without charm? It's not Brasília. Is it Asunción?

lol. I was in a hurry to leave the house when I read that.

Not Caracas. To borrow on Sluggo's theme, there's no R or S. But it does have just about every other letter

Good one. You gave it away, but I won't divulge. Architecture, foliage and church & minaret suggests eastern Mediterranean/Adriatic, but lack of hilly terrain made that unlikely. Anyway, it's not even close to where I was looking.

Spoiler
