72 Beloved Films With Surprising Location Sets Across the U.S.

Jumanji is a film in which a supernatural board game transports players into its heart. Contrary to what its jungle scenes suggest, the movie was not shot in a far-flung tropical location but rather in the serene Keene, New Hampshire, bringing surprising realism to its fantastical setting.

In the cinematic universe of Jumanji, Keene, New Hampshire, transforms into the quaint town of Bradford. The iconic Parrish Shoe Factory springs to life as the Olde Woolen Mill. The movie magic didn’t stop there; part of the action was also captured in Burnaby, British Columbia, at the Bridge Studios, boasting North America’s largest special effects stage, making it an ideal backdrop for Jumanji’s otherworldly escapades.
