Star Wars The Last Jedi is just around the corner. With less than a week left before the big date (15th December – official world premiere), Disney gives us a quick look at some of the locations that were transformed into different worlds. Croatia’s Dubrovnik is home to Canto Bight, an epic battle is to be held in the salt flats in Bolivia, otherwise known as Crait – a big new world, revealed (mentioned) in Rogue One and featured in Episode VIII, and Ireland’s small island of Skellig Michael is that beaufitul place, where we left Luke and Rey at the end of Episode VII The Force Awakens.
Take a look at this short clip and don’t be afraid, it contains no spoilers!
The big question is – how many times are you planing to watch the movie? Have you got your tickets? How about Christmas shopping? Did you plan your gifts and presents with Star Wars in mind? I have quite a selection hand-picked for you. Take a look :)

Canto Bight
Canto Bight was a coastal city on the desert planet Cantonica. The city was a destination for wealthy individuals, and it was filled with casinos and racetracks. During the war between the Resistance and the First Order, Resistance members Finn and Rose Tico traveled to Canto Bight. The Canto Bight Police Department were the law enforcement of the city.
Crait
Is a small mineral planet located in a remote section of the galaxy. Covered with a layer of white salt over its red-colored soil, the planet once hosted a Rebel Alliance outpost during their early rebellion against the tyrannical Galactic Empire. Many years later, the uninhabited planet became a haven for Leia Organa’s Resistance, which resulted in a battle between the Resistance and the First Order on the planet surface.
The Jedi Temple
Is the mysterious place, where Rey found Luke at the end of The Force Awakens and is also where The Last Jedi picks up. It is a home to an ancient Jedi temple, where the old Jedi was finally found. In the real life Skellig Michael, also called Great Skellig, is the larger of the two Irish Skellig Islands, 11.6 kilometres west of the Iveragh Peninsula in County Kerry, Ireland. A Gaelic Christian monastery was founded on the island at some point between the 6th and 8th century and remained continuously occupied until it was abandoned in the late 12th century. The remains of the monastery, and most of the island, became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996.
