Where was New Asgard actually filmed?

New Asgard was filmed in St Abbs, a small fishing village on the Berwickshire coast in southeastern Scotland, near the English border. The harbour, cliffs, and stone cottages you see on screen are all real parts of this working coastal community.

Why did Marvel choose Scotland instead of Norway for New Asgard?

Marvel needed somewhere remote, weathered, and melancholy that felt inhabited rather than designed. St Abbs offered a real working harbour with credibility as a place where displaced people might rebuild, plus it looked suitably northern without resembling a polished Norwegian postcard.

Is St Abbs still a normal village or has it become a tourist attraction?

St Abbs remains a working fishing village. While they've added signs saying they're twinned with New Asgard and Marvel fans do visit, the harbour still operates as it always has and the cottages remain homes—no superhero theme park transformation happened.
