Dubrovnik - The Dark Side

Since we first came to Ljubljana, a trip to Dubrovnik has been at the top of our list, and we're finally here.  There are lots of things to love about this town, but perhaps the coolest (definitely the coolest if you ask Sy) is the fact that scenes from the next Star Wars movie were shot here this spring.  And if you're into Game of Thrones, there's that too.  Star Wars and Game of Thrones memorabilia everywhere, walking tours, you name it.

A few Star Wars comparison pics below:

1) Onofrio's fountain, as it looks now and done up for Star Wars.
2) The main street Stradun, as it looks now and done up for Star Wars.
3) The view of the port and St. John Fortress from Banje Beach outside the city walls, one with a beautiful lass and the other with an evil lord (jokes in the comments box, please).

If you want to see a video on scene set-up, there's a very cool one here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-heyfopgT0
