Seville, Spain

In Attack Of The Clones, Senator Amidala (above, in absurd hat) is escorted to her home planet of Naboo and the point of arrival is in a spectacular circular building. The location was the Plaza de Espana, in a park in the Spanish city of Seville. The building was constructed for a fair in 1929 and now houses Government offices and a little boating lake. Peer closely at the fabulous Moorish-style decoration and you'll find tiled artwork representing different regions of Spain.
Other screen appearances for the Plaza include doubling for military offices in Lawrence Of Arabia.
