* In ''Manga/CaseClosed'', one story had Ran visit New York. She takes a nap at one point and when she wakes up, she's already there... And literally the first thing she sees there is the Art/StatueOfLiberty.
* ''Anime/CodeGeassAkitoTheExiled'': Many scenes have the Eiffel Tower, letting viewers know the story is set in France, Paris.



* During the Doma Arc of ''Anime/YuGiOh'', when the Orichalcos Soldiers were attacking everywhere on Earth, the cities they were attacking were identified with a single famous landmark (e.g. the [[BritainIsOnlyLondon Palace of Westminster]], the [[BigApplesauce Empire State Building]], [[LandDownUnder Sydney Opera House]], TokyoTower, [[GayParee l'Arc de Triomphe]], etc., etc.)



* Mostly averted for ''Anime/{{Noir}}''. Although much of the series is set in Paris, the only glimpse of the Eiffel Tower is from a good distance away in the opening, which an inattentive viewer may miss entirely. The absence of this trope actually causes a slight problem with the narrative pacing, since not all viewers realize at what point the first episode transfers between Japan and France, [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools which may lead]] [[TheCoconutEffect to confusion]].

* Mostly averted for ''Anime/{{Noir}}''. Although much ''Manga/TheLegendOfKoizumi'': How do you know that George W. Bush is in America (as if you didn't already know)? You can see the Statue of Liberty from his bedroom window. His bedroom... in the White House. In Washington DC. 200 miles from Liberty Island.
* Creator/MakotoShinkai likes to use the NTT [=DoCoMo=] Yoyogi Building as a sign that the film is currently in the Shinjuku ward of Tokyo.
* When Kanna flies to New York City in chapter 62 ''Manga/MissKobayashisDragonMaid'', she lands at the base

* ''Manga/Moscow2160'': The main symbol of the setting is an Ostankino Tower. Unlike the real one, this tower became a center of the web of cables that span across Moscow to keep a city alive. Danila Kuragin compares it to a nervous system of a man.

* Exploited in-universe in ''{{Fanfic/Luminosity}}'' when the rebels want to get one of the Volturi guard to defect to their side by causing them to form a vampire [[OneTrueLove mate bond]] to one of the rebels. This can be done via [[LoveBeforeFirstSight transmission of one of Alice's visions]] to the would-be defector in which the potential mate is visible. Unfortunately this on its own won't tell them where to ''find'' the person, so they come up with the idea to have them go to Paris and stand in front of the Eiffel Tower.

* Art/NorthAmericaPortraitOfAContinent:[[JustifiedTrope This is a pictorial map, after all.]] Flora, fauna, landmarks, and other such iconography associated with certain locales covers the landscape, (for example, the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wright_Flyer Wright Flyer]] in Kitty Hawk) while cities are depicted by their iconic skylines. Fittingly, the town of Paris, Texas is marked by its replica of the Eiffel Tower.
