Alcazar, Unesco World Cultural Heritage, Seville, Andalusia, Spain

Seville’s incredible Alcazar Palace recently became a set for season five of Game of Thrones. The palace, originally built for Moorish kings and now used by the Spanish royal family, is one of the most beautiful in Spain.

We think it’s a great place to immerse yourself in the splendour of the country’s Moorish past, and while you wonder at the arches, mosaics and gardens you can fantasise about bumping into a Stark or a Lannister.
