Fans of Wes Anderson will be delighted to learn that there are places in this world that will make you feel like you’ve stepped behind the silver screen and straight into one of his movies. From Scotland to Portugal, from Ukraine to even North Korea, there are real-life locations that wouldn’t look out of place in The Grand Budapest Hotel, Moonrise Kingdom, Rushmore or a whole host of the eccentric director’s other visually stunning masterpieces. People have been sharing their pictures on a subreddit called Accidental Wes Anderson, and you can find some of our favorites in the collection below.

There's just something about a round house that states "Efficiency" and "Good Looks", all in one package. I'd Love to own one like this. ;D

    Its a shame that such an unique stopover is boarded up. This hotel/restaurant/gift-shop is in a perfect location for offering a break, from the twisting and winding two lane traffic. I hope it will be reopened soon.

    Being from Rochester, NY, and having visited, I can tell you that the elephant head is not fake. Eastman hunted for sport & sadly, this is a tragic example of the consequences.

    Joanna Stein

    8 years ago Created by potrace 1.15, written by Peter Selinger 2001-2017

    There are conflicting stories in Rochester about this though...the story from some that it's the original taxidermy & others that it's a recreation of the original head. Nonetheless, Eastman definitely went on safari and shot an elephant among other creatures. Ok. The end.
