The top five most unusual McDonald's locations have been revealed, as one branch in particular won an award for it's impressive architecture.
When you think about the location of most McDonald's restaurants, convenient, easy to reach, and centrally-located are all words that spring to mind.

That is apart from these five branches, that are located in the most unusual spots, offering a unique and unforgettable experience.

McDonald's has, on occasion, transformed iconic and unconventional spaces into fast-food dining settings, including a glass-walled McDonald's restaurant in Georgia, which has received an award for its staggering architecture.
Other unique branches include one that looks like the White House, while another appears to resemble one of the company's very own Happy Meal boxes - both creative yet instantly recognizable at the same time.
However, here are just some of the most unique locations of McDonald’s from around the world…
Taupo, New Zealand
This vibrant lakeside town in the central North Island of New Zealand is home to one of the most iconic McDonald's branches of all time.
The restaurant, which has been nicknamed one of 'world's coolest McDonald's', sits inside a decommissioned Douglas DC3 aircraft.
Visitors can enjoy their Big Mac meal inside the aircraft, which is finished with airplane-style seating.
Those dining can also view the D3 plane's cockpit.
Downey, California
This McDonald's restaurant is the oldest-operating branch in the entire world, and still looks as it did when it first opened in 1953.
The spot doesn't have a drive-through, instead, customers walk up to the windows to order.
Melbourne, Australia
This McDonald's branch in Clifton Hill was designed with the art-deco style of the 1920s and '30s in mind.
It was constructed between 1937 and 1938, after originally being designed as the 'United Kingdom Hotel' by architect James Hastie Wardrop.
It has previously been called one of the most beautiful McDonald's restaurants in the world.
Las Vegas Strip
With over 110 McDonald's branches across the city of Las Vegas, it may not come as a surprise that there are six different locations on the strip alone.
This one in particular stands out for its embellished illuminous golden arches to match the aesthetic of the strip.
Roswell, New Mexico
This franchise is often referred to as the 'flying-saucer' McDonald's, and is truly out of this world.
The branch is inspired by Roswell's extraterrestrial history, and is complete with a a space-themed play area inside.
