This is cool for me personally. Episode VIII is partially being filmed in Croatia, in the picturesque walled city of Dubrovnik. It's it's heyday, Dubrovnik rivaled Venice as one of the most powerful city states of the Mediterranean.
I've spent some time in Dubrovnik, and it takes my breath away. The ancient history and converging Roman, Croatian, Italian and Turkish cultures in the city is simply amazing. I can't wait to see it in the new movie. If you ever get a chance to visit, I highly recommend it.
All the windows that you see around the 1 minute mark are all functioning shops and apartments above them. So cool.
