Are you a die-hard Game of Thrones<\/a> fan? You\u2019ll probably already know that the cast have been filming in Barcelona and in other areas of Catalonia, especially throughout Girona. Barcelona\u2019s cobbled old town and Girona\u2019s medieval streets make for excellent backdrops for this popular fantasy series.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re keen to see these filming locations with your own eyes, here\u2019s a DIY walking tour for you:<\/p>\n

Begin your tour at the Tourist Information Centre in Girona. If you\u2019re staying in a villa in Barcelona<\/a>, you can catch the train directly from Barcelona Sants Station to Girona, which takes around 40 minutes. Cross the Sant Feliu Bridge, pass by the River Cafe, and head down Carrer del Bellaire. Take the steps down at Carrer del Riu Galligant, and you\u2019ll be in the GoT \u2018Old town\u2019.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The large, imposing monastery you see before you is actually called Sant Pere de Galligants, and it\u2019s home to the city\u2019s archaeology museum. However, to GoT fans it\u2019s none other than the Maesters\u2019 citadel. Stroll around the garden, then cross the bridge and climb the stairs to Plaza del Jurats. You\u2019ll recognise this plaza as being the theatre backdrop for some of Arya\u2019s scenes.<\/p>\n

By taking the stairs from the plaza, you\u2019ll find yourself in the Arabic Baths, which is where the Braavos market scenes with Arya were filmed. Walk down Carrer de Ferran el Catolic (it eventually becomes Via Augusta) until you reach the beautiful Girona Cathedral which is, of course, the Great Sept of Baelor. The church played a huge role in the series 6 finale!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After exploring the cathedral, you\u2019re in a great spot for strolling around the main city centre before heading back to the station to catch a train to your <\/span>Barcelona accommodation<\/a>. Alternatively, rent a <\/span>villa on the Costa Brava<\/a>, in towns such as Blanes and Lloret de Mar, which offer easy access to Girona.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
