Movie tourism with an Indiana Jones theme
It may be dorky, but I am a big Indiana Jones fan. I still use the opening scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark to work with my ESL students on active and passive voice (they describe what Indy does and what happens to him).
So anyway, this Kayak blog on Indiana Jones movie tourism obviously caught my attention. They mention some destinations Indiana Jones fans might appreciate a little bit extra:
Egypt - day trips from Cairo, the Egyptian museum, and ruins.
Jordan - the ‘Canyon of the Crescent Moon,’ the purported resting place of the Holy Grail was set in Petra (which hopefully some readers will remember).
Sri Lanka - apparently Temple of Doom was set in India but filmed here.
Nepal - great for trekking (we have a few blog entries about Nepal - I think this is the oldest).
