Where in the World #7

This puzzle relates to a specific location—can you use the themed answers to figure out where you are before the grid spells out the answer? 

This puzzle was made for my special friend JM, who I said I would make this puzzle for three years ago. Thanks for your patience, buddy!

A trio of trustworthy testers helped improve this puzzle quite a lot: Brad, juff, and probablyapocryphal—thank you so much!
