Lord of the Rings

Did you know the Lord of The Rings franchise was entirely filmed in New Zealand? Sure, there was a little CGI usage in quite a few places of the flick, but the locations remained very recognizable and breathtaking. The Argonath Gate, for example, kept the innate beauty of the waterway called the Kawarau River. Nowadays,  it’s a widely beloved tourist destination. Intense LOTR fans can sign up to take rafting tours through the river. The added bonus is a Lord of the Rings guide that can teach you about the movie while you raft.
