Default Scenery

I've have taken a flight to Vienna for the first time using the FSX default scenery.  The city appeared like photographic scenery.  Does MSFS come with photo' scenery in parts of the FSX default scenery?

FSX comes with some “detailed” areas for some major cities around the world but they only consist of buildings and landmarks, no photoreal scenery is included.

Take a screen shot and post it here so we can see what you see.

I just went to Vienna and it looked very default.  It was set up like many European cities to make the scenery look more realistic.

Thanks to all.  Clearly the answer in NO in general.

Not sure about that.  The AVSIM Library has many "fixes" for the default scenery in Berlin.

FSX does come with some default photoscenery, St Maarten probably the most notable. Berlin Tempelhof airport is another example. I don't know of any comprehensive list though.
