Where was pans labyrinth filmed?

Pan's Labyrinth was filmed primarily in Spain, with most of the filming taking place in the Asturias region, particularly in the Picos de Europa mountain range, a rugged and beautiful part of northern Spain.

Here are some specific locations:

* The mines: The mines where Ofelia and her father work were filmed in the Buferrera mines in Asturias.

* The forest: The forest where Ofelia meets the Faun was filmed in the Cabrales Valley, a region known for its beauty and wild forests.

* The labyrinth: The intricate labyrinth was built on a sound stage in Madrid, but its design was heavily influenced by the caves and tunnels in the Picos de Europa.

While the film is set in a fictionalized version of Spain during the Spanish Civil War, the stunning natural scenery of the Asturias region plays a key role in creating the film's magical and atmospheric setting.
