I have never heard about the bookstore tourism or film tourism but it sounds interesting and it might help to feel like a character of a book/film. Walking through New Zealand, like Legolas and Frodo, must be great because of breathtaking landscapes. I like travelling, visiting new places but I prefer geological monuments than historical. A place which really impressed me is Pompei, the ancient city destroyed by volcano eruption.
