The world of Game of Thrones is more familiar than you might think, especially if youāre familiar with Dubrovnik. Thatās a place in Croatia. Many memorable scenes in the last season were filmed there, and Redditor Rach11 took pictures to help us compare and contrast.
From these pictures, itās clear that CGI was used to transform these locations into Westerosābut even so, itās still rather recognizable as Dubrovnik. Take a look:
āLots of the scenes are filmed at this Fort just outside of old town up on a hill. Most of the times people are walking around by stone walls and paths itās either here or on the city walls around Dubrovnik.ā
āA few of the scenes from Qarth were filmed on nearby Lokrum island.ā
