Places on our planet that are even more beautiful than depicted in famous films (photo)

Many people dream of seeing with their own eyes the places where famous films such as "Game of Thrones" or "Wednesday" were filmed. In the following photos, you can see that these places are a hundred times more attractive than they are shown on the screen.

**Ait Ben Haddou, Morocco - "Game of Thrones"**

For filming, this fortress-city was transformed into the fictional city of Yuncai in Morocco. However, the series did not fully reflect all the beauties of the desert.

**Cantacuzino Castle, Busteni, Romania - "Wednesday"**

The castle, of course, was slightly modified using computer graphics to create a gloomy atmosphere - it would not be without Gothic elements, such as the bent tree in the courtyard of the academy of young rebels. But the lively Cantacuzino Castle also amazes with its beauty.

**Cairfill Castle, Wales — “Doctor Who”**

Several episodes of the series, for example, scenes about Venetian vampires, were filmed in this castle, but not all its beauty fit into the frame. By the way, both the castle itself and the area around it are incredibly beautiful.

**Ait Ben Haddou, Morocco — “Clone”**

This amazing stone city served as a worthy backdrop for the love story of Jadi.

**Eresunsk Bridge, border between Denmark and Sweden — “The Bridge”**

According to the plot, two police officers investigate a crime that occurred directly on the bridge and constantly cross it to get to Denmark or Sweden.

**Fort Macomb, Louisiana — True Detective**

In the first season finale, Matthew McConaughey wanders through the catacombs, trying to catch up with a criminal. The episode was filmed at a historical location - a 19th-century fortress. There are indeed catacombs there, but they are not as scary as in the series.

**Angkor, Cambodia — Lara Croft: The Prologue**

The adventures of the brave Lara take place in the ruins of a temple in Cambodia. It is not surprising that after the filming of the film, this place attracted many tourists.

**Tunisia — Star Wars**

The famous planet Tatooine is not only located in Tunisia, but also got its name from the Tunisian city of Tataouine.

**Dominica — “Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest”**

Most of the scenes in the film were shot on the beautiful island of Dominica.

**Inishmore and Achill, Ireland — “The Banshees of Inisheer”**

The scenery is one of the best parts of this gloomy film starring Colin Farrell. The harsh climate of the Irish islands is amazing, even when viewed through a screen. Inisheer is a fictional place, but the film was shot in a very real place, on two islands - Inishmore and Achill.
