Top Kid Movie Travel Destinations In The World

Scott · June 20, 2018 · Leave a Comment

Movie tourism is a real thing, as fans yearn to visit the filming locations of their favourite motion pictures. Your kids are no different, as these features often stoke their curiosity about the world beyond their hometown.

Knowing this, which kid movie travel destinations should you prioritize? This article will mention a few favourites of kids everywhere…

1) United Kingdom – Harry Potter series

We adults have epic film series like Star Wars, and the Lord of the Rings – for kids, though, the Harry Potter movies have created a generation of film enthusiasts. Following the exploits of a boy who travels to a boarding school for the magically inclined, they get to watch as Harry and his classmates navigate their lessons en route to becoming wizards, while confronting evil plots along the way.

Start in London by checking out Platform 9¾, which is still marked in King’s Cross Station despite the fact the movies were shot years ago. Next, Durham Cathedral is a great spot to visit, as its beautiful stone pillars and arches are just as they were depicted in scenes where the wizards were learning how to turn animals into water goblets in Professor McGonagall’s classroom.

Finally, make the trip up to Scotland, where your kids will get a kick of the vista that the Glenfinnan Viaduct has to offer. It was here where the scene showing Harry Potter being taken by train to Hogwarts was shot.

If you decide to take this trip, know it will be one with many hours spent going from one filing location to the next. In short, you’re going to be exhausted at the end of each day. Don’t let this stop you from entertaining yourself after the kids have gone to bed, though, as there are numerous online gaming sites on the web waiting for you.

If you want to keep your nightly blackjack and slot games on the down low, use zCash, an anonymous cryptocurrency whose source is nearly impossible to trace. This way, you’ll have fun while your partner will never be the wiser.

2) St. Vincent and the Grenadines – Pirates of the Caribbean

Feel like a tropical holiday instead? Take your children to St. Vincent and the Grenadines, the Caribbean island where the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie was shot. Wallilabou Bay is a can’t miss locale, as it was here where Captain Jack first entered our consciousnesses by stepping off a sinking ship and onto the dock.

When you aren’t hunting down unforgettable scenes from the inaugural film, recline on its many picture perfect beaches, snorkel through its offshore reefs, or admire its many lush gardens.

3) Jiufen, Taiwan – Spirited Away

While some may not have heard of this animated feature, Spirited Away is among the world’s most successful anime films. Playing to sellout crowds in theatres across Japan and around the globe, this story touched many souls.

If your kids are among them, make sure to include Jiufen if you find yourself heading to Taiwan in the near future. While the founder denies being inspired by this gold mining town on the northeast coast of this island nation, the resemblance between its red paper lantern lined streets and the scenes portrayed in the film is hard to explain away.
