Almeria Indiana Jones in Almería. By Paramount Movies Almería is a land of cinema, everyone knows that and at this point it is not a surprise to anyone. What may not be known is that there are many more films made than The Good, the Bad and the Ugly or Lawrence of Arabia . I was recently impressed to learn that Blade Runner 2049 has aerial shots showing the greenhouses of El Ejido, one of the areas with the most greenhouses in all of Europe. They are called “Plastic Sea” and were also protagonists in a Spanish television series that was curiously called that. INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE | Official Trailer | Paramount Movies It is not fascinating to know that Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade has an iconic shot on the beach of Monsúl but you may be surprised to know that almost the entire film was filmed in the province and even in Almería city.

The truth is that Spielberg had already heard about everything that these lands offer since he is a big fan of Lawrence of Arabia , which he has named on several occasions as one of his favorite films. It is not surprising then that he decided to return to what was pure inspiration for David Lean and give it a twist to record the third Cell Phone Number List installment of the saga in 1989. Personally, I believe that Indiana Jones has united and marked several generations and, after spending several days spending the summer in beautiful Almería, I declare myself an even bigger fan of this equally fun and exciting film. On the occasion of the recent premiere of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny , I wanted to remember all those corners that appeared on the big screen alongside Harrison Ford in my already beloved Almería.



Almanzor Street: street where Sallah, Indy and their father drive Alcazaba of Almeria Alcazaba of Almería from Almanzor street. By Mike Workman What is today an ordinary street became the center of the city of Iskenderun, Turkey. In this scene we see how Sallah helps his friend Indy and his father to escape and leave the city behind to be able to recover Marcus and reach the Holy Grail before the Nazis. This scene lasts a few seconds but in it you can see number 16 (quite quickly) and number 29 of Calle Almanzor (a little more detailed). Between both houses and if you look closely you can also see the beautiful Alcazaba of Almería , a fortification that ends up adding even more personality and character to the film.
