Game of Thrones … ah, this movie really got me! Watching this movie for the first time was so captivating that, after the first episode, I had a long series of sleepless nights. This series really gets you, honestly … if it captivated me, a girl who does not have too much patience to watch movies, what can I say about movie lovers?! I’m looking forward to discover Season 8, but I regret that it will be the last one! Who will reach the throne? Game of Thrones, a HBO production inspired by George R.R Martin’s novels, unveils captivating intrigues, actions that keeps you breathless, but also unique locations that can be turned into future travel destinations.
Because I love all locations where Game of Thrones was filmed and because I want to get there sometimes, I created a top with the most representative of them:
