#timetotravel When my friends and I were planning our Spanish trip, they insisted on coming to Girona for a day trip. It is because they are Game of Thrones fans and the show filmed some scenes in this town, and this includes the Girona Cathedral and the steps!! I have never seen Game of Thrones but I equally enjoy visiting the Girona Cathedral because it is a magnificent and beautiful gothic cathedral, it is certainly impressive especially when I walked up the stairs and looked at it closely. There is also a garden, Jardines de La Francesa located right next to the Cathedral, make sure you visit it as well when you visit!! #境外遊 #spain #girona #gameofthrones

#bucketlistreboot The Eiffel bridge was constructed where the four rivers meet. It was laid over the Onyar river in 1877 to facilitate local access from historic centre to the town market. Girona has eleven bridges, the most famous is the one that was constructed by Gustave Eiffel, a red color bridge that will not miss it, just before the construction of the Eiffel Tower in Paris.

I made sure to spend some time in the beautiful city of Girona, and as a Game of Thrones fan, it was such a cool experience. The old town of Girona was used as a filming location for several scenes in the series, especially those set in Braavos and King's Landing. Walking through the narrow medieval streets and climbing the stone staircases felt like stepping right into the show. I even found the exact steps where Arya Stark begged while blind. It was surreal seeing it in real life. Aside from Girona, I also got the chance to unwind in Lloret de Mar and Tossa de Mar, two charming coastal towns along the Costa Brava. Lloret had a livelier, more energetic vibe with beaches, nightlife, and buzzing streets. Tossa felt quieter and more laid back, perfect for relaxing walks along the seaside or exploring the old fortress. Both places offered stunning views and their own unique character. One thing I absolutely loved throughout the trip was the local food. There were loads of great spots serving up delicious seafood and paella, and I made sure to try as many variations as I could. The flavors were fresh and rich. I honestly couldn’t get enough. I also had a surprisingly good steak one evening, cooked to perfection. Whether in the busy center of Girona or by the sea in Tossa, the food never disappointed. What really stood out to me, though, was how friendly and welcoming the people were. Whether I was asking for directions, ordering food, or just chatting with locals, everyone was warm and helpful. It made the trip even more enjoyable and left me with some great memories of the region.#travel #beachlife

#postandearn Visiting Girona was like stepping into a quiet corner of Catalonia where history and charm go hand in hand. Just a short train ride from Barcelona, the city felt refreshingly calm and authentic, with fewer crowds and plenty to discover. I started my day walking along the medieval walls that surround the old town. The views over the rooftops and the distant hills were stunning, especially in the morning light. From there, I explored the narrow stone alleys of the Jewish Quarter — one of the best preserved in Europe — where time seemed to slow down. The highlight was the Girona Cathedral, with its wide staircase and massive single nave, which gave it a powerful, imposing feel. Nearby, I visited the Arab Baths, a small but atmospheric site that offered a glimpse into the city’s layered past. As I wandered toward the Onyar River, the colorful houses lining its banks created a postcard-perfect scene. I crossed the red iron bridge built by Gustave Eiffel — a lovely contrast to the historic surroundings. Girona impressed me with its beauty, calm atmosphere, and rich history. It’s a city that invites you to take your time, explore quietly, and appreciate the details — and that’s exactly what I did. #travel #thingstodo #spain

Beautiful, I like that there is the Kham River on both sides of the road, the water is clear.

Known as the "City of Four Rivers," Girona's historic district is characterized by medieval architecture and Roman, Arabic, and Hebrew styles. Located within the walls of Força Vella, this area showcases masterpieces of its historical development. Positioned in a prime location between the Pyrenees and the Costa Brava, it offers various excursions, including visits to towns and notable natural areas. All these places provide visitors with opportunities to savor local cuisine, which blends seafood and mountain products in its recipes. The city of Girona is situated in the Ter Valley, where four rivers converge. The Onyar Valley is one of these, separating the historic center from the modern city. The old center of this Catalonian city preserves traces of its long history since its establishment by the Romans in the 1st century BC. It was thanks to them that the original city walls were built, with remnants stretching from the Archaeological Walk to the Wall Gardens.

#CanadaFlightEvent Girona near Barcelona, ​​Spain~~ It's famous as a filming location for Game of Thrones, but we unfortunately didn't get to see Game of Thrones~ Still, the medieval feel~ The city with its atmosphere was charmingㅎㅎ The Eiffel Bridge and the huge Girona Cathedral~ Even a cup of delicious coffee~ It's a place worth visiting.

I recommend a Japanese ramen restaurant near Barcelona, ​​Girona. It is near the main tourist attraction of Girona from the station, and it is crowded if you go at lunchtime, so you can wait and come back after looking around the area. The food is delicious and the staff is friendly. The price is also reasonable.

If you are traveling to Barcelona, ​​I highly recommend Girona. You can get there in 39 minutes by Renfeta, and if you bundle it with Figueres, it is a trip that departs at 9 AM and returns to Barcelona around 6 PM, making it a great one-day course. Girona is a leisurely city where you can walk around with a Gothic feel, have a draft beer, and have a delicious lunch~ #Girona #GironaCastle #GironaOldTown #GameofThronesFilmingLocation #EuropeTravel #GironaCathedral #BarcelonaSuburbs

#January travel support event #Spain #Girona #Eiffel Bridge ✔️There is a way to get to Girona near Basel but we took the Spanish train 'Renfe'.

There are many things to see but we saw the Eiffel Bridge first After arriving in Girona the first place we went was the Eiffel Bridge. The Eiffel Bridge was built by Gustave Eiffel, who built the Eiffel Tower! They say it's an early work. It's characterized by being painted red.

Girona is a beautiful small city in the Catalonia region of Spain. It’s the gateway to the Costa Brava.

In the northeast of Spain, there is a low-key thousand-year-old city hidden. Although there are only 100,000 people here, many complete medieval buildings are preserved, such as churches, city walls, neighborhoods... This small town silently records everything that happened in the Middle Ages. Because of this, it has become a favorite filming location for many movies and TV series. The most famous one is "Game of Thrones", where King's Landing, Braavos and the Citadel were all filmed. It is only an hour's drive from Barcelona. The style is completely different. Girona is quiet, simple and mysterious with few people. City Wall Walk (Carrer de la Muralla) - Girona Cathedral (Catedral de Santa María) - Jewish Quarter (El Call) - Sant Pere de Galligants Monastery (Monestir de Sant Pere de Galligants) - Stone Bridge (Pont de Pedret) - Puente de las Pescaderias Viejas - Plaça de l'Oli - Rambla de la Libertad
