Here fighting tribes and fire-breathing dragons star in the prequel, based on his 2018 novel, Fire &amp; Blood. This story follows the events that finished the Targaryen dynasty. We\u2019re expecting loads of dragons and an impressive cast, with Paddy Considine, Matt Smith and Emma D\u2019Arcy as Targaryens, Olivia Cooke and Rhys Ifans as the Hightower family, and rivals the Velaryons including Eve Best and Steve Toussaint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-caceres-spain\">C\u00e1ceres, Spain<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While Game of Thrones famously shot the majority of the Kings Landing scenes in dreamy Dubrovnik, this time the Spanish city of C\u00e1ceres gets the spotlight. This lesser-known medieval city is one of the key House of The Dragon filming locations. You might have spotted the UNESCO heritage city when it popped up as Kings Landing in past seasons. And with charming cobbled streets, creepy gargoyles and otherworldly vibes, you too can step back in time when you visit C\u00e1ceres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2022\/08\/Caceres-Spain-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-870704\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Caceres-Spain-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Caceres-Spain-330x186.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Caceres-Spain.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-monsanto-portugal\">Monsanto, Portugal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This breathtakingly beautiful village set high in the hills of Portugal will be seeing more traffic after being used as a location for House of The Dragon. Awarded \u2018most Portuguese village in Portugal\u2019 in the early 20th century, Monsanto is dotted with giant, unmovable boulders that villagers built their houses around in a whimsical way. At the top lies an ancient castle and stone fortress said to pre-date the Romans. Walking around the castle walls you\u2019ll see why HBO chose this spot for the new series.&nbsp;There\u2019s no need for special effects\u2026 except to add a dragon or two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2022\/08\/Monsanto-Portugal-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-870705\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Monsanto-Portugal-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Monsanto-Portugal-330x186.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Monsanto-Portugal.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>GET INSPIRED BY: <\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/tours\/best-of-portugal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong><em>Best of Portugal<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-cornwall-england\">Cornwall, England<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Underrated England isn\u2019t known for its beaches, but the dramatic coastline of Cornwall gives southern Europe a run for its money. Off the coast here House of The Dragon made use of a brilliant tidal island castle called St. Michael\u2019s Mount. The castle and building here date back to the 12th century and for more than 300 years it has been home to Lords St Levan, who lease it from the National Trust. House of The Dragon used it as Driftmark, home to House Velaryon, in Blackwater Bay. Filming also took place at Holywell beach and Kynance cove. If you make it over this way for a vacation, expect gorgeous scenery, surf and plenty of Cornish pasties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2022\/08\/Cornwall-st-michaels-mount-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-870706\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Cornwall-st-michaels-mount-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Cornwall-st-michaels-mount-330x186.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Cornwall-st-michaels-mount.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>GET INSPIRED BY: <\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/tours\/best-of-devon-and-cornwall\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong><em>Best of Devon and Cornwall<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-peak-district-england\">Peak District, England<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The dramatic rolling hills of the Peak District were put to work as the House Targaryen battle it out in the latest series. If you\u2019re a fan of nature, this National Park is home to gorgeous moorlands, lush hillsides, valleys and lakes. That&#8217;s perfect for filming a new HBO series or simply for enjoying fresh air and stunning scenery. The new prequel made use of Cave Dale (a skinny limestone valley), Eldon Hill (which looks like an ancient amphitheatre due to quarrying), and the famous Mam Tor (the site of a Bronze Age fort).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2022\/08\/olivia-cooke-as-alicent-hightower-rhys-ifans-as-otto-hightower-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-870707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/olivia-cooke-as-alicent-hightower-rhys-ifans-as-otto-hightower-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/olivia-cooke-as-alicent-hightower-rhys-ifans-as-otto-hightower-1-330x186.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/olivia-cooke-as-alicent-hightower-rhys-ifans-as-otto-hightower-1.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption><em>Olivia Cooke as &#8220;Alicent Hightower&#8221; and Rhys Ifans as &#8220;Otto Hightower&#8221; \u2013 Photograph by Ollie Upton\/HBO<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-surrey-england\">Surrey, England<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, another location in the UK \u2013 and with good reason. Much of House of The Dragon was filmed in the Warner Brothers Studios in Leavesden in Hertfordshire (yes, the same ones where Harry Potter was filmed). That meant the UK was quite convenient for real-life locations too. Surrey had its moment in the spotlight with its charming villages and country homes, meadows and natural woodlands put to use. Apparently the cast and crew shot a tournament scene here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>RELATED BLOG:&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/locations-tv-shows-were-filmed\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em><strong>Travel locations our favourite TV shows were filmed in<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-trujillo-spain\">Trujillo, Spain<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>And finally, the sixth scenic location for the new House of The Dragon series takes us back to medieval Spain.
