Long before ԍᴀмᴇ oғ тнʀoɴᴇs did wonders for tourism in places like Iceland, Ireland, and Croatia, there was another fantasy epic that had travelers flocking to see its beautiful real world filming locations. We’re, of course, talking about The ʟoʀᴅ of the Rings and the Pacific nation of New Zealand. Fans of the films couldn’t wait to visit all of the New Zealand destinations used as The ʟoʀᴅ of the Rings filming locations to represent Middle Earth.
It’s been nearly 20 years since the film series was in cinemas, but The ʟoʀᴅ of the Rings will soon be returning to our screens in a very different way. Amazon is currently in the middle of producing a TV series that will take viewers back to Middle Earth. What’s more, this series is also filming in New Zealand, which means more gorgeous New Zealand scenery. To tide you over until the new series debuts, here’s a list of where the films were shot in New Zealand.
