The location is identified with very high confidence based on two key visual elements. The building in the background is unmistakably the KazMunayGas Headquarters, a prominent landmark in Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan.

The ornate black and gold metal railing in the foreground is characteristic of the Nurzhol Boulevard, the city's main pedestrian axis. A comparison with Google Street View confirms the exact spot on a small bridge/walkway on the boulevard, looking southeast towards the KazMunayGas building.

The granite steps on which the person is sitting are also a perfect match. The architectural style, featuring grand, modern buildings with expansive glass and stone surfaces, combined with decorative, high-quality public infrastructure like the ornate railing, is highly characteristic of Nur-Sultan (formerly Astana).

The city is renowned for its futuristic and large-scale construction projects undertaken since it became the capital of Kazakhstan. The aesthetic of modern, grand public buildings and ornate metalwork in public spaces can be found in other prosperous post-Soviet cities that have undergone significant redevelopment.

Kazan, Russia, is one such example, with a modernized city center that shares some design language. However, the specific building in the background does not match a known landmark in Kazan, making this a less likely, but plausible regional alternative.
