]]>While the series takes place in a fictional world, it was shot here on planet Earth with cities around the globe serving as the backdrop for the series creators’ interpretation of Westeros. Fans of the series should add these three cities to their must-visit list due to their role in GOT.
The fictional city of King’s Landing was brought to life in the series in the coastal Croatian city of Dubrovnik. The city’s walled and fortified old town was used by the series’ creators to represent a seaside city that served as the capital of the Seven Kingdoms.
An easy day trip away from Marrakech on Morocco’s Atlantic coast is the city of Essaouira, which served as the filming location in Game of Thrones’ Season 3, Episode 4 visit to Astapor in which Daenerys Targaryen liberates the city.
Another short day trip away from the more popular city of Barcelona is Girona, which was a big player in Season 6 of the series. Here, the city was transformed into the wealthy city of Braavos in a number of scenes that will instantly be recognizable to fans of the series.

]]>While the worlds in which this story took place might seem computer-generated, most of them were shot in real places. Spain has a huge concentration of filming sites for the series, so let’s take a look at some of the most memorable that you can visit.
San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, an islet off of the northern coast of the Basque Country, is a dramatic hilltop chapel that was transformed into Dragonstone, the birthplace of Daenerys Targaryen. This magical place is only a short drive away from the region’s largest city, Bilbao.
The Water Gardens of Dorne looked like something straight out of the Arabian Peninsula when it appeared in Season 5 of the series, but this scene was actually shot in the Real Alcazar in the southern Spanish city of Seville. This Moorish palace dates back to the 10th century and can still be visited in all of its splendor.
Northeastern Spain’s desert-like region of Las Bardenas Reales, located in the province of Navarre, in a remote area, feature dramatic natural sandstone arches and formations. For the series, this dreamlike landscape stood in for the Dothraki Sea, and you can take a hike and feel like you’re in Essos if you visit this desert region.

]]>Although the gate itself was edited in, this rocky national park in Iceland is where the “Bloody Gate” scenes were filmed.
North of the wall is an arrowhead shaped mountain. This is filmed off the north coast of Iceland and to be honest, it is even more breathtaking in real life than it is on the show.
This is the scenic spot where that epic showdown between Brienne of Tarth and The Hound went down.
The climactic attack on the men who ventured north of The Wall in season seven was shot at Stakkholtsgja in Iceland.
Do you recognize this distinctive rock at Eastwatch-by-the-Sea? You can visit it in Iceland in real life.
