Discover the Breathtaking New Zealand Movie Filming Locations Everyone’s Talking About 💖
NZ As we all know, New Zealand is renowned for its beautiful scenery, making it a popular location for many films and TV shows. If you are a movie enthusiast, then New Zealand is definitely a must-visit travel destination.
Follow my footsteps and let’s explore the charming corners that have appeared on screen together.
📍Hobbiton – This is a dream destination for countless fans of The Lord of the Rings, The Ring, and The Hobbit. Step into Hobbiton, visit the towering ancient trees, lush green grass, and meticulously arranged hobbit holes. Every corner exudes a strong medieval pastoral atmosphere. Stroll along the winding paths, not only can you visit iconic scenes like Bag End, but you can even enter some of the open hobbit holes to experience the atmosphere of the film firsthand.
📍Karekare Beach – This is where Ada, the heroine of the film The Pianist, played the piano. As one of New Zealand’s most famous black sand beaches, Karekare Beach attracts visitors with its fine and soft black sand, giving the beach a mysterious and unique aura. The nearby towering cliffs, surging sea, and surrounding lush mountains form a wild natural landscape, attracting countless outdoor enthusiasts.
📍Paradise Valley – This is an important filming location for some key scenes in The Wolverine 2. Paradise Valley is known for its breathtaking beauty, and because it is far from the hustle and bustle of the city, it remains relatively quiet and better preserves much of its original appearance. The snow-capped mountains, dense forests, and babbling streams here perfectly recreate the intense confrontation in the film, making visitors feel as if they are in the movie.
🌟Food Recommendations🌟
🏮Green Dragon Inn – The Green Dragon Inn from the movies has been perfectly reconstructed within Hobbiton. From the wooden beams to the stone fireplace, every detail strives to recreate the scenes from the books and screens. Here you can taste traditional British pub food such as fish and chips, shepherd’s pie, etc.
It is especially recommended to try the “Southfarthing Brew,” a pale ale specially designed for Hobbiton.
