King's Road Aka The Dark Hedges In Northern Ireland

The two lines of beech trees might not be there for much longer, they're about 240-years-old and usually live 250 years. Of the 150 that were planted, only half currently remain. There are talks to plant new ones, but they'll take a century to grow

Grjótagjá Is A Small Cave Near Lake Mývatn, Iceland

It is not only a cave, but there's also an underground geothermal hot spring inside. Unfortunately, it is not allowed to bathe in Grjotagjá any more because a geological activity caused the temperature of the water to rise up to a degree to hot for bathing safely. Grjótagjá did become quite famous when it appeared in Game Of Thrones most epic love scene! Can you guess which one?

Thingvellir is just over a half hour outside of Reykjavik and is one of the top tourist destinations in Iceland thanks to its unique geological landscape and the fact that it’s home to the Silfra fissure, a spot where you can swim between tectonic plates.

The Rock Of Gastelugache In Biscay And It Is One Of The Shooting Locations Of The Game Of Thrones

The Rock Of Gastelugache In Biscay And It Is One Of The Shooting Locations Of The Game Of Thrones

The rock of Gastelugache in Biscay is an island connected to the mainland by a man-made bridge, which passes into a staircase of 241 steps. At the top of the rock is the chapel of John the Baptist, built in the 10th century (locals believe that John once fought with the devil on this rock). They say that if you ring the bell three times on the chapel, then any wish will come true. Well, at least, for this you have to be obviously lucky because the chapel is almost always closed. But this place was especially famous as one of the shooting locations of the Game of Thrones: Gastelugache “played” the Dragon Stone. After that, the flow of tourists has almost doubled, so the Basques are even seriously concerned about the safety of the bridge
