May The Fourth Be With You (and also with you)! It’s the one day of the year when we can geek out on Star Wars harder than most days (because it’s socially acceptable 365 days a year now). And to celebrate this, the glorious day of all that is Luke, Vader, Leia, Han, Kyle, and Jar Jar, you should consider making the movies a big part of your upcoming travel plans. That’s because while the movies are set in space, they’re shot — as some of us had to learn the hard way as kids — right here on earth. In places where you can visit.
Need ideas on where to go? Fortunately for all of us, City Base Apartments has put together a neat infographic of all the places the movies were shot, giving you an easy-to-read guide to exactly where some of your favorite scenes were filmed. Want to visit the Tatooine desert? That’s in Arizona. The moon of Endor? You’re in luck if you live in California. Want to visit Mos Eisley, that “wretched hive of scum and villainy?” You’re gonna have to go just a little bit further…because that’s in Africa.
