First thought that sprang to mind was "Minas Tirith in early stages of construction".

Looks like a marble quarry.

Not marble, granite :)
I figured it was either Portugal, or Graniteville in vermont; turns out it is most likely Graniteville, see:

Definitely Graniteville - I can see the bit the photo is taken from.

Thanks!
