Journey to Edoras and Helm's Deep

Early in our New Zealand journey, Tim, who is a big fan of Lord of the Rings, thought that it would be fun to try to find the place where they filmed Edoras and Helm's Deep which are both in Two Towers.  The picture above was as we were approaching them.

This is where they filmed Helm's Deep (minus the snow)!

This is where King Theoden's residence would have been (you have to really use your imagination!) again, minus the snow.

Here are some movie extras who came a few years too late for the filming of the movie!

More beauty on our way back to Christchurch.
