To all the Game of Thrones fans!!!!!

#timetotravel When my friends and I were planning our Spanish trip, they insisted on coming to Girona for a day trip. It is because they are Game of Thrones fans and the show filmed some scenes in this town, and this includes the Girona Cathedral and the steps!! I have never seen Game of Thrones but I equally enjoy visiting the Girona Cathedral because it is a magnificent and beautiful gothic cathedral, it is certainly impressive especially when I walked up the stairs and looked at it closely. There is also a garden, Jardines de La Francesa located right next to the Cathedral, make sure you visit it as well when you visit!! #境外遊 #spain #girona #gameofthrones

Cathedral of Saint Mary and surroundings

#bucketlistreboot It is located at Pl. de la Cathedral, s/n, 17004 Girona, 1.4 kilometers 20 minutes walk away from Girona train station. It was built between the 11th and 18th centuries. To reach the main entrance, you must go up a large staircase from the late 17th century. The Gothic nave is the second largest in the World, after St Peter Basilica. Totals of 90 steps climb up , when you look down it is part of the Games of Thrones that was filmed. Girona Cathedral dominates the skyline of Girona, if you are a fan of the Games of Thrones, you must visit here and surroundings to discover the filming scene.

[Girona Cathedral] Girona Cathedral was built in the 14th-16th century, one of the world famous Gothic cathedrals. The cloister of the church is a neo-Roman style, the facade and the main hall are Catalan baroque. The main hall arch is 23 meters wide and is second only to St. Peter's Basilica in the world's unsupported church buildings. The most precious piece of art in the church is the brocade painting Genesis, which was exhibited in the Treasure Hall. Girona's main attraction is this cathedral, an elegant and compact town, this church is the most famous attraction but more people know it is in the TV series "The game of rights" Inside the both sides are full of delicious restaurants and lovely shops. It is said that the level of this church is very high, can be seen through the decoration of the door, it seems to be the number of door wheels, But the details of the sculpture are both exquisite and vivid, it is indeed a mixed church, and, this quiet town, pure, calm and calm. The moment when we arrived at the main church in the dense alleys, it did bring us an unexpected visual impact. The 99-level heavenly ladder that suddenly turned out of the narrow alley, so did not hesitate to extend upwards and go straight to the church! Stepping up the steep steps of 99, I think if it is a Christian, step by step to step into the church, it will be more devout and moving.

Spain Tossa Travel Guide

Hi! Friends, today I want to recommend a super niche travel destination to everyone - Tossa in Spain! This beautiful village has narrow cobblestone alleys, beautiful boutiques and gourmet restaurants, and is a very suitable place for vacation. First of all, I recommend everyone to go hiking in Cala Llevadors. This trail extends along the coastline to Castillo de Tossa, and you can admire multiple bays and attractions along the way, ending at Codolar Beach. From the cliff, you can overlook the entire sea, the scenery is super spectacular! Walking in the old town, you can see the ruins of the medieval castle wall that once stood here. There are cafes and delicious seafood restaurants in the castle, where you can taste delicious food while admiring the beautiful sea view. In addition, don't miss the two popular photo spots in the town. One is the square stone gate, which is also one of the filming locations of Jeon Ji-hyun's 'Legend of the Blue Sea', and the photo effect is super good! The other is a iron door through the bridge hole, behind the iron door is the blue sea, standing here to take pictures, as if in a fairy tale world. In terms of transportation, it is not far from Barcelona, and it takes about an hour to drive. I suggest everyone to go to Tossa for a day or spend a leisurely weekend, and feel the unique charm of this beautiful village!

Tossa de Mar - the castle by the beach

Tossa de Mar is a beautiful beach town 1 hour north of Barcelona. It is well known for its castle and wall crowning a beachside hill and descending all the way to the sea level.

Gerona Game of thrones city

When I first saw this city my heart was happy, the food was lovely and the people were nice. I think I’m in love with Gerona. No matter the language you speak you can get by everywhere. The main language of this town in Catalan. Which is kind of a mix of French and Spanish. Been French Canadian myself really help to understand their language and their culture. I will highly recommend that you try the fish their. It’s something else. Nothing compered with American food. The olives the wine and the quality of the products or just outstanding and I’m not even talking about the cheese and bread .wow I think this place deserves a 5 star
