WARNING SPOILER ALERT: Season 5 of Game of Thrones has come to a close and fans are left asking – did Jon Snow actually die and will Sansa survive the jump?
A flood of questions arose after last night’s Game of Thrones’ season finale was aired. What if heart-throb Jon Snow doesn’t return for Season 6? Did Cercei really deserve the brutal ‘shame-walk’? Has Arya lost her face for good?
Avid fans (who don’t want to wait behind TV screens for their next ‘GoT-hit’ in April 2016) can get the ultimate filming experience by visiting the picturesque backdrops where the blood-thirsty scenes were shot.
Northern Ireland
Thanks to off-site filming locations, the Northern Ireland economy has received a much-appreciated tourism boost as hardcore fans visit the region.
Croatia
The Croatian town of Kastel Gomilica was a major location in the season finale and is where most of Arya’s scenes were shot.
Iceland
Hverfjall volcano in Iceland
You wouldn’t imagine the icy White Walkers to live anywhere in the world except in…yes – Iceland. In Season 5, scenes where Jon Snow tried save the Wildlings (that didn’t end well) took place at Vatnajökull and Svínafellsjökull.
