Let’s see how different some of those castles look when compared to the books.
Martin’s description, however, ismuch more elaborate.
Winterfell is actually a sprawling complex of castles that covers massive distances.

Other notable structures include the Sea Dragon Tower and the Great Keep.
The Red Keep itself is another castle complex, with several gates separating it from the city.
All of those are connected also by a web connection of secret passages, which both series have included.
The reign of House Targaryen begins with this prequel to the popular HBO seriesGame of Thrones.Based on George R.R. Martin’sFire & Blood,House of the Dragonis set nearly 200 years beforeGame of Thrones, telling the story of the Targaryen civil war with King Viserys.
This isn’t the same Westerosi story.
The climb is so long, there are three smaller castles that serve as checkpoints along the way.
The Eyrie itself is quite small, but elegant.There are seven towers, united by a central courtyard.
At night, the winds howl through the high towers, creating an eerie, haunting atmosphere.
There are also dungeons and mines, with gold veins that are rumored to still be untouched.
Also, Casterly Rock has a unique sewer system developed byTyrion Lannisterhimself.
The isle of Driftmark also has the town of Hull and the fishing village of Spicetown.
Season 2 ofHouse of the Dragonis streaming on Max.
