The ‘Game of Thrones’ TV series, based on George R.R. Martin’s bestselling fantasy novels, A Song of Ice and Fire, has been filmed at various locations in Northern Ireland.

Scenes from Season 5 were filmed at locations in Antrim and Newtownabbey. Lough Neagh and its shores represented the Summer Sea between the continents of Westeros and Essos, and Toome Canal also featured when it represented part of the once great city of Old Valyria. Shane's Castle and its grounds have also been used; its stone ruins and stunning surroundings providing a perfect location to capture the mystique of the show.
