I think the Aztec Pyramid is supposed to look like the Mayan ruins of Tikal. However, it is different from the actual ruins and it appears the designers have instead exactly copied the Indiana Jones ride at Tokyo Disney 🤦‍♀️ (https://tdrplans.com/tds/attractions/indiana-jones-adventure-temple-of-the-crystal-skull) (please tell me I am wrong so I do not have to be too sad about this)

Could it be that they based the Tesla Power Plant on the "Wardenclyffe Tower"
IRL those are two seperate buildings, but from the front it looks like they are integrated

Yes, I was looking for the Aztec Pyramid too. But when you search for Temple of Ah Cacao, it directs to the tikal temple i. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tikal_Temple_I and the others there don't fit. It's certainly not the main pyramid at Chichen Itza although it may be another one there.

@Jenn B one thought I had re the Aztec Pyramid was that it seemed to be based more off El Dorado. Thoughts?

Thanks @onurkübra, we have identified the cloud castle and the Cinderella Castle (both in Japan and florida)

@CRK that means the red pad is likely https://www.esa.int/About_Us/ESA_Permanent_Mission_in_Russia/Plesetsk

And the green pad is likely Rocket Thrust Mounts, Gemini Titan Complex 19, Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida 1991 https://slate.com/culture/2016/03/abandoned-nasa-launch-sites-photographed-by-roland-miller.html

It looks more like the Disney attraction though. That difference in stairs width as you go up...

Could the mystery cabin be Frank Lloyd Wright's 1935 Fallingwater.? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallingwater

I thought about that one too. But there are rooftop pools on the mystery cabin but not in falling water. I'm not sure about this one. But Fallingwater is on my list - top of my list actually

Could’ve been an inspiration, but I think they’re quite different...

@Jenn B pretty sure this is from a fictional work. Any ideas for the haunted hotel?
