The arid landscape and climate that characterizes part of the province have made it an ideal setting for Western films, especially during the 1960s. Because of the demand for these locations, quite a number of Western towns were built near the () (Desert of Tabernas ). Films such as ''A Fistful of Dollars'', ''For a Few Dollars More'', and ''The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly'' were shot here. Years later the film of ''800 Bullets'' was filmed in the same place. Large sections of ''Conan the Barbarian (1982 film)'', ''Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade'', ''Lawrence of Arabia'' and ''Patton'' were shot there as well.
