There is no such app currently on the market.
That is if you exclude Google Goggles, World Around Me and Wikitude.

This answer was written before Google Goggles was excluded in the question.
On Android there is Google Goggles. It lets you take pictures of buildings and landscapes and finds out what those are. I’ve used it successfully to identify rather nondescript skylines of German cities as well as tourist attractions in various countries.
It does some more stuff, like identifying art, product labels or reading Barcodes that come in handy at times.
Here is a screenshot I took from the app. I used it to identify this Wikipedia photo off my computer’s screen.
