6. Tatooine locations for Star Wars
Another amazing movie sets, and this comes from a well-known movie: Star Wars.
These are some of the most memorable scenes from the film, to be more precisely the scenes from the desert planet Tatooine of the Star Wars universe.
And go figure, these scenes were actually filmed in rural Tunisia.
The numerous, long- abandoned Star Wars sets dating back from 1977, 1999 and 2001-2002 can be found throughout Tozeur, Naftah, Matmata and other places in North Africa.
The crew travelled far and wide to the barren Sahara desert towns, where an area of over 11,000 square meters was converted into a fantasy world.
Later, upon special request from the Tunisian government, some of the locations were left intact and became popular tourist attractions in the Sahara desert.
