Tourism in Spain, Iceland, and Croatia is booming as a result of the hit HBO series. Explore the Seven Kingdoms with AESU!
Seville, Spain
The Royal Alcazar is regarded as one of the most beautiful sites in Spain and was registered as a World Heritage Site in 1987. The location first appears in season two of Game of Thrones as the Water Gardens of Dorne and continues to pop up throughout the show. The exterior of the palace is truly astonishing, dating back to the mid-1300s, as it’s a perfect mixture of Christian and Moorish architecture.
Reykjavik, Iceland
The diverse Icelandic landscapes provide the scenery for numerous Game of Thrones episodes. The north of the Wall, the Frostfangs, and the Fist of the First Men all feature Icelandic locations. Explore the stunning coastlines, volcanic deserts, and majestic waterfalls that pepper Reykjavik and surrounding environs.
Dubrovnik, Croatia
Fans of the show delight in picturesque views of King’s Landing, but everyone can enjoy this extraordinarily beautiful city.
