Game of Thrones has already brought more than £87 million to Northern Ireland, where many of the show's scenes filmed, but that hasn't stopped local officials from looking for new ways to cash in on the hit HBO show. With GOT's fifth season debuting on April 12, the Northern Ireland Tourist Board has put together a map of the series' filming locations, including a three-day itinerary for the ultimate Game of Thrones road trip. The new, free resources are designed to bring more tourists, and tourism dollars, to the region.
The Discover Westeros tour includes stops at Castle Ward, better known to fans of the show as the Stark's home, Winterfell; Ballintoy Harbour, which stood in during a pivotal scene for Theon Greyjoy in season two; and The Dark Hedges, which is featured during Arya Stark's escape from King's Landing with Yoren, of the Night's Watch.
