If you’ve ever watched a movie and wondered, “What would it be like to actually be on set?” then we have good news. There are a bunch of movie sets from classic films that are still around, and open to visitors. In this video, we’re taking a look at a few of our favorites from this long list. We take a look at a couple of the locations where Harry Potter movies were filmed, as well as a castle where Charles Xavier taught a bunch of mutants. We take you through the childhood home of a famous movie archeologist, show you where to find the prison yard where they filmed Shawshank Redemption, and take you to the lush greenery of Jurassic Park. For some people, it might be enough to simply watch movies. But for the adventurous among us, visiting famous movie set locations is a way to fully immerse ourselves into the world of our favorite cinema. These visits not only offer an opportunity for nostalgia but also inspire a sense of wonder and adventure. Whether it's reliving childhood fantasies or experiencing the magic of movie-making up close, visiting movie sets ignites the imagination and reminds us of the transformative power of storytelling. So for a great glimpse into some of the road trips (and air trips) that you should definitely consider making, check out this video today. You’ll be able to see the legendary movie sets that filmmakers utilized for your favorite movies, and then make plans to actually set foot in them!
