Like Burj Khalifa Tower in Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol and Alnwick Castle in the Harry Porter series, many places in China, such as Chongqing and Hong Kong, play a role in domestic films.
These sites and their own natural landscapes bring charm to the films, while those that become popular inspire in their fans a yearning to visit those places.
