Michelle Fairley, Pilou Asbaek, and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau in Game of Thrones
Westeros has pretty distinct visuals compared to other fantasy sagas, and Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon have both done a great job of establishing their own language onscreen. Still, as cool as seeing all the castles is, they are a far cry from their book counterparts, which are simply so massive and unique in architecture, that faithfully recreating them on television is simply impossible.
Winterfell's layout itself is also different from the series. The castle is surrounded by two great stone walls, with a moat between them and, outside, a village called Winter Town. The towers in different architectural styles are a testament to how Starks kept adding to the castle complex over the centuries, and there are many towers and halls that are just too old, but kept standing as a reminder of the longevity of House Stark, like the First Keep and the Broken Tower.
King's Landing Has Changed Many Times The capital of the Seven Kingdoms has had many different shapes and sizes in the series, making it difficult to even try and imagine a map of it. The city is located at the mouth of the Blackwater Rush, and its most important landmarks are located atop three hills : the Red Keep on Aegon's High Hill, the Dragonpit on Rhaenys' Hill, and the Great Sept of Baelor on Visenya's Hill.
2 The Eyrie Has Been Depicted Differently Every Time Every time the seat of House Arryn in the Vale becomes part of the series' narratives, it's depicted differently. The most faithful so far has been in Game of Thrones Season 1, when Tyrion Lannister is kept in the Sky Cells and faces the Moon Door, and in Season 4, when Arya Stark and Sandor Clegane arrive at the Bloody Gate.
