Are you a fan of " Game of Thrones "? Well then, surely you are looking forward to the months to be able to enjoy the seventh season of the series, which will shoot many of its scenes in our country. Yes! Yes! As you are reading it! And it is that the producers of the most successful series of the moment have realized the artistic, historical and landscape heritage that our country hides.
Peñíscola, Canet de Mar, Girona, Navarra, Guadalajara, Almería and Seville have already appeared in some episodes of fiction, but it seems that Spain will have even more prominence in the seventh season. We will tell you what will be the new locations of the series in our country below.
Bermeo, Basque Country
The Basque Country will be one of the autonomous communities of Spain that will have the most prominence during the next season. One of the corners of the Basque Country that will possibly appear in the series will be the Biscayan town of Bermeo. Specifically, the producers have chosen the hermitage of San Juan de Gaztelugatze, which crowns an islet connected to the continent by an old bridge.
Zumaia, Basque Country
Another Basque place that will appear in the seventh season of "Game of Thrones" will be the Itzurun beach, which is located in the Guipuzcoan town of Zumaia. Some followers of the series believe that this will be the place chosen for the landing of Daenerys Targaryen.
Muriola Beach, Basque Country
We are still in the Basque Country to tell you about Muriola Beach, known as La Cantera. Located in Vizcaya, it is a place very frequented by surfers . According to rumors, the "Mother of Dragons" will also be seen in these parts. However, nothing is certain yet.
Historic center of Cáceres, Extremadura
The autonomous community of Extremadura will also have a lot of prominence during the seventh season of the series. In fact, several corners of the province of Cáceres will appear in its chapters. One of them is the historic center of the city of Cáceres, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site . Rumors suggest that he will incarnate King’s Landing.
Los Barruecos Natural Park, Extremadura
We continue in the province of Cáceres to tell you about Los Barruecos Natural Park, a peculiar natural area located in Malpartida. It stands out for its strange geological forms, which are combined with remains of prehistoric civilizations and rivers. It seems that the producers have requested a large number of extras to shoot at this location.
Trujillo, Extremadura
The municipality of Trujillo from Cáceres will also appear in the series. Cradle of characters such as Francisco Pizarro and Francisco de Orellana, the city has attracted the attention of producers for its castle of Arab origin. It will be in the courtyard of the fortress where one of the scenes from the seventh season will be recorded.
Royal Shipyards of Seville, Andalusia
The city of Seville has already appeared in previous seasons of "Game of Thrones", but the producers wanted to add a new location to the Andalusian capital. It is about the Royal Ataranzas, which have had a very important role in the history of Spain. And it is from this place that the galleys that fought for control of the Strait of Gibraltar came out.
Santiponce, Andalusia
Another location will be Santiponce, a municipality of 8,000 inhabitants located very close to Seville. Apparently, in this place, which houses the ruins of Italica, an important battle of the next season of the series will be filmed.
Almodóvar del Río, Andalusia
Finally, we have to talk about Almodóvar del Río, a town located in the Middle Valley of the Guadalquivir, in the province of Córdoba. Specifically, the producers of the series have set their sights on its castle of Arab origin, which was restored at the beginning of the 20th century.
