Game Of Thrones is undoubtedly the most watched TV series. Real filming locations are used for the show to make it more authentic and realistic for the viewers. They allow them to see what ancient castles and cities looked like during medieval times. These types of filming locations also help actors feel as if they are in a real place rather than a studio or soundstage.
Game of thrones was filmed in several countries including Iceland, Northern Ireland, Croatia, Malta, Morocco and Scotland among others.
The show was originally planned to be shot entirely on location in Northern Ireland but budget issues forced the producers to move production to other countries.
So, Asta Skujytė-Razmienė, who is a huge fan of the series, and her husband decided to visit Croatia for summer vacations, tracing the Game Of Thrones filming locations.
Some locations on the GOT map are easy to locate – Dubrovnik is, for instance, just like one big filming location. Other Game Of Thrones locations, such as streets in Split (Croatian) were more difficult to find. These locations were either difficult to find or required long searches. It was worth all the wandering!
