WHERE WAS "THE LOST CITY" FILMING LOCATION?

After seeing the movie, the question on everyone's minds seemed to be, "where did they shoot this movie"? "The Lost City" was reportedly shot in the Dominican Republic. The movie's filming started in May and was wrapped up in August 2021.

One specific location on the island where this movie was shot is Samaná, an attractive tourist town with its beautiful mountain range and the Samana province's capital.

Santo Domingo, the capital of the Dominican Republic, was another location. It is believed that the movie was filmed around and about the capital. This location is distinguished for its ancient buildings and structures dating as far back as the 1500s.

Not left out is Juan Dolio, also in the republic. A particular scene where Loretta Sage meets Abigail Fairfax is believed to be captured in Pinewood Studios in Juan Dolio and other interior shots.

They also shot scenes around the south-eastern resort community of Casa de Campo in La Romana. The five-star resort on Higuey Highway, which was marked with Ponderosa-styled houses lying across 28 square kilometers, featured in this blockbuster.
