Spaghetti Western Location ~ Las Salinas (Part 1)


Las Salinas is a very scenic location about two kilometers south of the current Oasys/ Mini Hollywood. The highest part has a steppe-like appearance, while the lower part is characterized as a very arid environment, rich in salt outcroppings and suggestive rock formations. Some sets were built here. In 1966, in the lower part, a Mexican type village was built, used in large part by the film "The Ugly Ones" (1966); "Sugar Colt" (1966); "Death Rides a Horse" (1967) (represents the pueblo of El Viento); "Dynamite Joe" (1967); "The Ruthless Four" (1968) and "Death Sentence (1968) (this set is widely used in the episode with Richard Conte).
