Enjoy.

Luke, eager to see the Palace of Theed

I saw a photo of the real palace interior (i.e. Amidala's throne room). Evidently Lucasfilm did a lot of set "make-up," because it resembled Theed Palace only in structure. :?

Have a nice stay Luke.

I hope you'll find an internet cafe somewhere.

I'm glad this is a good going away and not another "I'm bailing out" post. Have fun!

And get pictures of any battle droid remains you might stumble across. :P

(Don't know how I missed this thread) Have a great trip! I was in Turkey. Beautiful place.

Have a safe trip!  Beware of SPECTRE agents shadowing you.

My dad went to Istanbul because of that movie. Changed his life, made him interested in world travel and, since he saw Galipoli, has become an expert on WWI & II. I dont' know many people who could say James Bond literaly changed their life. :devil:

Sorry mister, only the interiors are from an Italian Palace. When i saw the blue mosque in a photo, with those small buildings and bif trees i thought of naboo. You made me wonder with your statement , then i looked the official page.

Just see it for yourself: http://www.starwars.com/databank/location/...lpalace/?id=bts

Three muslim influences against one Italian definately has to influence greatly on the final design....

And i also found this:

Look for the trivia:

Which buildings influenced the design of Theed?

A. Marin County Civic Center, Caserta's Palazzo Reale, and Istanbul's Blue Mosque. (No mention was made of Dinotopia!)

By the way, i returned ;)
