Line 6:
Mount Rushmore is an oddly popular location; perhaps because it's easy to imagine those presidential heads not being made up of solid rock but instead holding masses of secret rooms inside. It must get ''awfully'' crowded in there.
 
Note this trope does '''not''' cover bases in or under ''fictitious'' landmarks like ''[[The Fantastic Four]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s Baxter Building or [[Fictional Counterpart|"almost" landmarks]] like "The Jeffersonian Institute" in ''[[Bones]]''. It also does not cover a fictional agency openly using a landmark as their base, such as UNIT operating out of the UN building in ''[[Doctor Who]]''.
 
Of course this makes a [[Monumental Battle]] all the more likely to happen if and when the series has the [[All Your Base Are Belong to Us|base attacked]].
 
Also see [[Weaponized Landmark]], where the landmark shoots back...
