"From a glass-covered restaurant in Batumi, Georgia, to one built over an ancient Roman road in Italy, the fast-food chain has found unique ways to blend with the local surroundings while maintaining its individuality. In his book, "McAtlas: A Global Guide to the Golden Arches," which was released in November 2024, author and photojournalist Gary He captured the essence of some of these locations while explaining what makes each one special."
"Nestled in one of Sweden's biggest ski resorts, Lindvallen, this spot offers a unique "ski-thru" experience. It allows skiers to grab a Big Mac without leaving their skis. The restaurant opened in 1996 and operates daily from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. during ski season. "The air is so clean and crisp - it's like being on top of the world," He told Business Insider,"
McDonald's typically uses red-and-white branding with golden arches, but some outlets feature distinctive architecture and local integration. Examples include a glass-covered restaurant in Batumi, Georgia, and a location constructed over an ancient Roman road in Italy. A selection of five unique locations is presented as must-visit destinations for brand fans. One standout, the McSki in Sälen, Sweden, offers a ski-thru allowing skiers to grab a Big Mac without leaving their skis; it opened in 1996 and operates daily from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. during ski season. The McSki requires lengthy travel from Stockholm but rewards visitors with mountain views.
