Meanwhile, in King’s Landing
The Game of Thrones King’s Landing scenes have been filmed in Dubrovnik since Season 2.
The show filmed here last September, and is currently filming parts of Season 6 in Ireland, so I didn’t get to see them this time. But I SAW SOME OF THE SPOTS THEY FILMED AT IN THE PAST!☺️
This is from the last episode of last season… and one of the most shocking scenes from the show…
Cersei’s Walk of Atonement – this is one of the most unforgettable TV scenes😁
it looks a little different, standing on the steps at night w/ laundry hanging and patio cafes😄
Varys being sneaky…
Tyrion and Varys on the wall of Fort Bokar, w/Lovrijenac in background (and they added two CGI towers)
at fort bokar, looking at lovrijenac… Peter Dinklage was standing where the cannon is
Quite a few scenes filmed on / in Fortress Lovrijenac…

This scene where the townspeople are protesting was on the steps of the Dominican Monastery…

steps at the dominican monastery
There are various shots of Blackwater Bay throughout the series…

the cove between Lovrijenac and Bokar, just outside of Old Town (not called blackwater bay😂)
KHALEESI! I STOOD WHERE KHALEESI STOOD!!!😍
Khaleesi, at the House of the Undying
minceta tower – she was on the lower level wall in that scene
The Iron Throne…… I guess HBO donated the one and only original throne to the city of Dubrovnik last year. They didn’t show the throne in Season 5, I don’t think, so I don’t know if they will replace it with something else? Not sure the plan. But today, the throne sits in Dubrovnik on a side street that leads up to Ploce Gate. You have to buy something from the shop in order to take pictures in the throne (seriously😐), and the cheapest thing is $4.44. But, I needed to sit in that chair.
*********Please note, world’s worst photographer is snapping the photos, and the world’s worst picture-poser is sitting in the chair.
This is the best one… blurry:/ SWORD WAS HEAVY!
In the next picture, the photographer told me to pose like this:
Ned Stark, lookin’ all hard
Turned out like this:
Hmmmm… looks almost exactly the same, No?
Game of Thrones, Westeros, Capital of the Seven Kingdoms, the Crownlands, King’s Landing…. CAN’T WAIT FOR SEASON 6 ON APRIL 24th!!!

Beauuutiful! If Game of Thrones, the blue-blue water and history aren’t enough to get you to visit, then consider this: the nation-state of Dubrovnik (or Republic of Ragusa) was the first nation/republic to officially recognize America’s independence in 1776 (they’re very proud of this👍🏼😍)!
Next up: Montenegro (Monte-whaaaaaat?)
Anyone who is a fan of Game of Thrones is dying of jealousy right now , me included !!!!!! What a beautiful city……..
