Game of Thrones is one of the most popular television programs of the past decade. This HBO program transported viewers to the magical worlds of Westeros and Essos, telling stories of medieval realism through the actions of memorable characters.

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

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.

Real Alcazar de Sevilla

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.

Las Bardenas Reales

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.

The Basque Country is a fascinating small piece of land that is the definition of a country within a country.

Located mostly in Spain, with a tiny portion in France too, this hyper-unique region has its own language, culture, and gastronomy.

If you’re looking to see the Basque Country, here are four spots that you must check out.

San Sebastián

The Basque Country’s beach city par excellence is San Sebastián, a picturesque city full of tapas bars and breathtaking views. You’ll love La Concha Beach, which is located in the heart of the city.

Rioja Alavesa

This southern portion of the Basque Country is the home of one of Europe’s top red wine regions. Visit a winery or a town like Laguardia to experience the Rioja Alavesa in its full splendor.

Bilbao

The Basque Country’s biggest city and cultural mecca is Bilbao, which hosts the stunning Guggenheim Museum as well as San Mamés Stadium, the home of Athletic Club and one of the best football stadiums on Earth.

San Juan de Gaztelugatxe

This small chapel on top of a rocky islet was the location for some of the shooting of Game of Thrones, and it’s easy to see why. A dramatic rocky staircase leads to the top of a spectacular viewpoint at this scenic spot on the coast.
