Gates, aka Jon Voight, is Cages's dad, who's wary and weary of the family treasure-hunting game. But Cage drags him back in.

The aged structure is exactly what its name says: the home of revolutionary silversmith Paul Revere. Built in 1680, it is regularly open to the public.The house does not itself appear in National Treasure, but Patrick Henry Gates, played by Jon Voight, uses a lantern as a phony clue to depict Paul Revere's famous April 1775 ride warning of a British attack. The surrounding North End neighborhood of Boston features in the film as well.

The Old North Church dates from the 1720s and is the oldest standing church in Boston (it's an Episcopalian mission now). The church was immortalized as the signaling center warning American revolutionaries of the British plan of attack on April 18, 1775: two flint lights in the belfry rather than one because the Redcoats were coming by sea, not land. In National Treasure, the Old North Church is used as a fake lead to throw off Ian Howe, played by Sean Bean, thanks to a phony clue tied to Paul Revere's ride (also on April 18, 1775).

Patrick Gates, played by Jon Voigt, gives Ben Franklin's Silence Dogood letters to The Franklin Institute. A logical choice.

While the storefront might not exactly be the one at 17th and Walnut, the changing room plays and important role in the Cage/Kruger romance. It was also a late addition. According to Clothes On Film, "[producers] had to think of a store where the two protagonists could feasibly buy these clothes." Urban was nearby and it all worked out.

Alright, here's where the Philly scenes start to take off, except this isn't really Philly. Gates and crew head to the Birthplace of Liberty for the next set of clues. Ian Howe (Sean Bean) thinks the next clue is the Liberty Bell, but Cage knows it's in Independence Hall. Crazy, right? Craziest of all: this was shot at a theme park in Los Angeles. Later, the henchmen, one hilariously named Paul, chase Cage through the park towards Philly's real Washington Square.

Aside from Cage's glorious hairline, here's where the magic of movie making really takes form. While Cage heads towards Washington Square, Kruger/Bartha almost immediately end up at Reading Terminal Market, some nine large blocks from Independence Hall. Yeah, it's a stretch, but one we're okay with due to the fact that Reading Terminal Market is a true national treasure -- pun absolutely intended.

Cage momentarily shakes Paul, only to be cornered inside the churchyard at Old Pine Street Church. After busting up some gravestones that are hundreds of years old, the henchmen chase Cage throughout the brick-lined streets of Society Hill.

Kruger/Bartha escape Reading Terminal Market unscathed and hopefully well-fed only to find themselves on North Broad Street. With the Masonic Temple visible, the duo head toward City Hall. They rush through the courtyard and eventually make their way to Market East, where a crush of people causes Kruger to spill the Declaration of Independence onto the street. Bean, who is chillin' on Market East, grabs the map like a boss.

Bad news from under The Shambles: the Kruger/Bartha combo lost the map to Sean Bean. Cage takes the news rather well and heads towards the car, which is parked in front of Cafe NOLA. Coincidentally, that's the spot with the Feds are hanging out just waiting for Cage, who left Paul in the dust but just can't shake Harvey Keitel. (Image: Michael Klein)

Benjamin and Riley tip the FBI that the Declaration of Independence is in danger, but are turned away. Undeterred and only on step short of crazy (i.e., passionate), the two continue to the National Archives to see the Declaration of Independence for themselves before making the decision to steal it.

After 180 years of searching and a meeting with Dr. Chase, Benjamin and Riley stand only three feet away from the Declaration of Independence. Benjamin then realizes that the only way to save the document is to steal it.

Determined to prove to Benjamin that it is impossible to steal the Declaration of Independence, Riley details the security for the document, which includes heat monitors, sensors, video monitors, and little families from Iowa.

Finally convinced that it's time to take matters into their own hands, Riley makes his way down the Archives Metro Station into a control room and starts doing his techie thing. Now able to access the security cameras in the National Archives, it's time for Benjamin to do his thing.

After Cage is taken in by the police, Bean's character forces him to come to New York City to search for more clues. The drop point? On the deck of the USS Intrepid. The badass Cage eventually dives into the Hudson and escapes to hunt another day.

Treasure-hunting's a sweet enough game to set Cage up at Beverly Hills's Greystone Mansion, which was built by an oil baron and is now a public park.

While the powers of Nic Cage (and Disney) are limitless, we highly doubt there was money, time or even a want to go up to the Arctic and film the Charlotte mission scenes. Cage and crew actually went to Utah. They find the old shipwreck, the all-important (and cool) pipe and then decide that the Declaration of Independence must be stolen, albeit for two very different reason. Oh yeah, Sean Bean leaves Cage and Bartha here for dead -- cool guy!
