Amazing World

The locations of the Star Wars movie look just incredible! It seems that this is either computer graphics or filming was made on another planet. However, many places from the main space saga in the world are not on other planets at all. Moreover, many who dream of going there can do it!Redwood National Park, California<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_135250582_L_1_1_865c99a097.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_135250582_L (1) (1).jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_135250582_L_1_1_865c99a097.jpg 234w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_135250582_L_1_1_865c99a097.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_135250582_L_1_1_865c99a097.jpg 750w,/uploads/large_Depositphotos_135250582_L_1_1_865c99a097.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw">Redwood National Park served as the location for the filming of the sixth episode of the Return of the Jedi saga, which took place in 1982. The American park looks so incredible that the directors decided that this is what the forested moon of Endor should look like in Star Wars. Huge redwoods grow in Redwood Park - one of the tallest and most ancient trees in the world. Until the 1850s, Native American tribes lived there.The park is full of hiking trails. These days, walking through the park still feels like you're on set. This is especially true of the Avenue of the Giants - a scenic road that runs right through the forest.Phang Nga Bay, Thailand<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_153860170_L_1_1_0d5992a1f8.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_153860170_L (1) (1).jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_153860170_L_1_1_0d5992a1f8.jpg 245w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_153860170_L_1_1_0d5992a1f8.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_153860170_L_1_1_0d5992a1f8.jpg 750w,/uploads/large_Depositphotos_153860170_L_1_1_0d5992a1f8.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw">The fantastic planet Kashyyyk from Revenge of the Sith was filmed at this location.

We are sure that you will remember this trip for a lifetime.Royal Palace of Caserta, Italy<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_272833716_L_1_c860b400b8.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_272833716_L (1).jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_272833716_L_1_c860b400b8.jpg 245w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_272833716_L_1_c860b400b8.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_272833716_L_1_c860b400b8.jpg 750w,/uploads/large_Depositphotos_272833716_L_1_c860b400b8.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw">The most luxurious location in the first episode is the planet Naboo. The role of royal palace of Naboo is a palace in the Italian Caserta near Naples. The eminent architect of that time (18th century), Luigi Vanvitelli, was given the task of building a palace that would not be inferior to Versailles and the Royal Palace in Madrid.If you happen to be in Naples, we advise you to visit the Royal Palace of Caserta and see for yourself how beautiful this place is. The best way to get from Naples to Caserta without a car is by bus, the journey takes 35 minutes. and will cost €1 - €7.

The first scene that appears in the trailer, which takes place on the planet Jakku, was filmed here.Travelers who dream of hiding from civilization can arrange a hike in the desert, but it is still better to contact a travel agency or join a large caravan. A more relaxed option is to stay at a Liwa oasis hotel near the filming location.Skellig Michael Island, Ireland<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_201749530_L_1_1_3473d52dc0.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_201749530_L (1) (1).jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_201749530_L_1_1_3473d52dc0.jpg 235w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_201749530_L_1_1_3473d52dc0.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_201749530_L_1_1_3473d52dc0.jpg 750w,/uploads/large_Depositphotos_201749530_L_1_1_3473d52dc0.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw"> Filming of The Force Awakens also took place on the ruins of a 7th-century monastery located on the steep slopes of Skellig Michael Island. Although this place is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List, it often scares away tourists, because it is located 12 km from the coast.

The most picturesque places on the planet where Star Wars was filmed 

It turns out that there are monster lizards in the world, some of which are capable of injuring and even killing a person! However, forewarned is forearmed. Read about the most dangerous lizards in our material.The Gila monster<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_200496722_L_1_1_a50af201d3.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_200496722_L (1) (1).jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_200496722_L_1_1_a50af201d3.jpg 235w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_200496722_L_1_1_a50af201d3.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_200496722_L_1_1_a50af201d3.jpg 750w,/uploads/large_Depositphotos_200496722_L_1_1_a50af201d3.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw">These lizards are considered the most poisonous in the world! The habitat of the Gila monster is the southwestern United States and the northern regions of western Mexico. You can meet these lizards in thickets of cacti, among tall grass and shrubs, in deep gorges, and on the slopes of mountains. These lizards are excellent swimmers, so sometimes they settle next to a pond. The dimensions of the Gila monster are quite large - the body length is about 60 cm, and a third of the length is occupied by the tail. The weight of an individual is from 1 to 2 kg. The lizard's poison is very toxic: one-tenth of a cubic centimeter is enough to kill a dog weighing 12 kg. And the total amount of animal poison is enough for 12 dogs.&nbsp;The green iguana<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_115158574_L_1_1_81a6667c64.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_115158574_L (1) (1).jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_115158574_L_1_1_81a6667c64.jpg 235w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_115158574_L_1_1_81a6667c64.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_115158574_L_1_1_81a6667c64.jpg 750w,/uploads/large_Depositphotos_115158574_L_1_1_81a6667c64.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw">Today iguanas have become very popular as pets, this giant ancient reptile has become the best alternative to a dog but they are extremely dangerous. Ordinary iguanas can weigh up to 7 kg and measure over 1.5 meters in length, which is why these huge lizards cannot be mistaken for a comic attack. You may visit the emergency room if you are attacked by this creature. In the wild, iguanas live in tropical and semi-humid forests of Central and South America. So we advise you to be extremely careful when walking in these places.The Nile monitor<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_414278668_L_1_1_30b57640c7.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_414278668_L (1) (1).jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_414278668_L_1_1_30b57640c7.jpg 235w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_414278668_L_1_1_30b57640c7.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_414278668_L_1_1_30b57640c7.jpg 750w,/uploads/large_Depositphotos_414278668_L_1_1_30b57640c7.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw">The Nile monitor lives in the central and southern regions of the African continent, including Central Egypt (along the Nile River) and Sudan. Nile monitors grow up to 9 feet long! If the Nile monitor feels threatened by a human or other potential intruders, it can grab the victim with an iron grip, from which it's very difficult to free itself, since the lizard will not want to open its jaws. This lizard can break human bones!The Komodo dragon<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_14037525_L_1_0e14bb1ab7.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_14037525_L (1).jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_14037525_L_1_0e14bb1ab7.jpg 245w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_14037525_L_1_0e14bb1ab7.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_14037525_L_1_0e14bb1ab7.jpg 750w,/uploads/large_Depositphotos_14037525_L_1_0e14bb1ab7.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw">There are known cases of these predators attacking people with a fatal outcome. In addition to powerful jaws, the poisonous glands of the monitor lizard also pose a danger - when bitten, toxins can cause shock, paralysis, and loss of consciousness in the victim. Currently, Komodo dragons live on several islands in Indonesia - so be extremely careful when traveling there.&nbsp;The Mexican beaded lizard<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_25776793_L_1_bb043e2b26.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_25776793_L (1).jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_25776793_L_1_bb043e2b26.jpg 241w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_25776793_L_1_bb043e2b26.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_25776793_L_1_bb043e2b26.jpg 750w,/uploads/large_Depositphotos_25776793_L_1_bb043e2b26.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw">This dangerous lizard lives on the coast of the Gulf of California in western and southwestern Mexico, penetrating about 275 km inland. The animal grows up to 95 cm, but usually, its body length is much less. In the distant past, these individuals were quite harmless to themselves. They had no way to defend themselves from enemies, so mother nature decided to reward them with at least one effective weapon, and let poison through the salivary glands, which was previously absent. When bitten by the Mexican beaded lizard's tooth, infections or anaphylactic shock are possible in the presence of allergies. So be extremely careful!
