5. Paris
The scenes where Beth goes to compete in Paris are filmed at the Haus Cumberland in Berlin, a former hotel built in 1911 that is now an apartment complex, and had also served as government administrative offices in the past. It is used to show the Paris hotel Beth stays at during a chess tournament there where she loses to Vasily Borgov (played by Polish actor Marcin Dorociński), her major antagonist of the series. Many scenes are filmed in the Cafe Grosz inside the Haus Cumberland. The building also appeared as a hotel in The Bourne Supremacy.
