Budapest, the capital of Hungary, is often described as 'Paris of the East'. If you are planning to travel to Europe, you must consider witnessing the city's grand architecture. It not only has a rich history but is also a feast for the eyes. By taking a stroll through Budapest’s cobbled streets and majestic buildings you can almost feel the weight of a thousand-year-old story unfolding around you. For fans of 'Dune', it's a rare chance to witness a city that feels both ancient and futuristic.

2. Jordan

Jordan, bordered by Syria to the north, is a country where the landscapes are as dramatic as the stories that take place there. The country takes its name after the Jordan River which is located along the country's western border and flows into the Dead Sea. Its sweeping deserts offer a timeless scenery making it a perfect backdrop for the mystical lands of 'Dune: Prophecy'.
