The Shared Worlds writing workshop has nominated its five “top real-life fantasy or science fiction cit[ies]” — places that are real, but have a “surreal, alien and beautifully strange” aspect.

Frank Lloyd Wright’s Ennis House, featured in Blade Runner, could be yours for a cool US$15 million. [via, via, via]
