Bond travels to Bardenas Reales (doubling as Kazakhstan) after he takes the place of Sasha Davidov. Upon arrival Bond first meets up with nuclear scientist Dr Christmas Jones, before heading down into the bunker to encounter Renard. After he sets a timer on a bomb, Bond and Christmas just manage to escape before we see the whole location explode.

history

In the southern part of Navarra is the Bardenas Reales, a semi-desert landscape that stretches out over 42,000 hectares. The landscape takes a moon-like appearance with its craters, gullies and solitary outcrops formed over millions of years by erosion. Despite its arid landscape a surprising number of flora and fauna exist, although reminders of its harsh nature are present with vultures scouring the ground looking for the next meal.
