They call it Cinephile tourism, although many prefer to qualify it as geek. The fact that someone travels to discover the settings of their favorite superhero movies always generates the occasional giggle.

But the really funny thing is that, despite these timidities, it is an activity that does not stop increasing and more and more are included in their respective itineraries the odd one, natural set.

Google knows this and, to fight against the mobility restrictions that exist today, it has compiled ten of them on its platform ‘Google Earth’.
