Season 7 saw over 10.1 million people tuning in to watch the premiere and we bet that figure will definitely skyrocket this Sunday.

We’ve compiled a list of holiday destinations from season 1-7 that will blow your mind.

Spain.

Everybody loves Spain. The culture, the food, the people and the destinations. Known for its sun-scorched beaches and desert-like regions, Spain is a country of breathtaking panoramic views, eclectic architecture, tasty cuisines and a country of many festivals.

Just like in season 5, you too can soak yourself in the luxury of the Royal Alcázar of Seville, Spain for as low as $50 from the Cathedral to the palace, to the water gardens.

Did you know, the scene where the Sons of the Harpy tried to assassinate Daenerys was shot at the bull ring of Osuna located in southern Spain where bullfighting is still a thing and open to visitors

Malta

The tiny Mediterranean nation of Malta is one of best beach destinations in Europe and the gate of King’s landing is located in the city of Mdina. Known as the silent city due to the fact that no cars (except those of a limited number of residents) have permission to enter the city. If you plan to visit Malta soon, the old capital city of Mdina should be the first on your list.

Northern Ireland

Take a fun trip and walk through the Dark Hedges when you visit Northern Ireland. The most photographed location in the country is also the road from King’s Landing. The Dark Hedges originated in eighteenth century when the Stuart family planted the rows of beech trees designed to impress visitors as they approached the entrance to their mansion, Gracehill house.
