* The Sahara Desert: This provided the iconic landscape for Tatooine, the desert planet where Luke Skywalker grew up. Locations like the Erg Chebbi, a massive sand dune field, and the Chott el Jerid, a salt lake, were used.
* Tozeur: This oasis town served as a filming location for the Mos Eisley Cantina scene, as well as other parts of the desert town.
* Matmata: The troglodyte houses in this village were used for the exterior shots of Luke's home, a moisture farm.
While some scenes were filmed in other locations, Tunisia's diverse landscape played a significant role in creating the visually striking world of Tatooine.
