Tikal is even more amazing by night. Dodge the guards by going through the jungle paths 100 metres to the right of the main entrance to the park.

Film Sets : Star Wars

Posted by iainsp 19 February 2007

For those of us of a certain age, it will always be simply Star Wars. Now, I beleive it is Episode IV: A New Hope. Late in the movie, a rebel base is situated in a remote jungle - with the occasional Mayan pyramid poking through the trees. This is the Mayan city of Tikal - close to the Guatemalan town of Flores.

Tikal, Guatemala - nearest Airport/ Bus station at Flores.
