Where do they film game of thrones? Northern Ireland and other destinations around the world - but the main shoot would be completed in Northern Ireland.
Game of Thrones movie series is an American fantasy drama television series which was adapted of A Song of Ice and Fire, George R. R. Martin's series of fantasy novels, the first of which is Game of Thrones. The movie series was filmed in different locations around the world and one of those which happened to be where most of the scenes appeared is Northern Ireland - that's how proud and happy we are so that we could easily visit these locations :-)
Some of these different filming locations are already from the touristic places which people flying over to Northern Ireland would be interested to visit, but there are also those which gained their fame after appearing in the movie and started attracting lots of tourists and visitors to the place all the time.
Binevenagh Mountain in county Londonderry, Northern Ireland, is one of those Game of Thrones filming locations which attracted the audience and which we decided to visit. What we have realized from those locations chosen for the movie is that they always happen to be different in some kind of way. In the case of Binevenagh Mountain, the difference lies in the history of the place which marks the western extent of the Antrim Plateau that was formed around 60 million years ago by molten lava.
This plateau and the steep cliffs extend for about 6 miles across the Peninsula of Magilligan and takes over the skyline over the villages of Bellarena, Downhill, Castlerock, and Benone Beach; this place with its huge space is considered good for different sports such as gliding, hang gliding and paragliding, fishing, and motorsport.
One of the other reasons that make this mountain different is the fact that it has been classified as an Area of Special Scientific Interest and was also considered an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty - calling out for more visitors to come and check this heavenly piece that took its part in the Game of Thrones movie series.
Going to Binevenagh Mountain is a chance that will offer you a panoramic views over Lough Foyle, the Roe Valley, Inishowen, as well as the west coast of Scotland; so you will get a lot of beautiful scenery and at the same time will experience visiting a new place in Northern Ireland that has to do with Game of Thrones movie series.
We enjoyed experiencing the views from this mountain and getting to see this place in Northern Ireland and so we would recommend the place for those travelling around Northern Ireland and not just those who are tracing the steps of Game of Thrones filming locations around the country.
There are other different locations in Northern Ireland where Game of Thrones was filmed; some of them are already known while others where considered a new discovery for the place. From those which we visited, we have been to the Dark Hedges which is the place that is all about those old trees forming a tunnel (

The interesting thing about those locations related to Game of Thrones and which happen to be in Northern Ireland is that some of the 10 doors which also appeared throughout the movie episodes are also found in hotels, bars, pubs, and restaurants that are scattered all around the country, not just that, but even two dire wolves happen to be from Northern Ireland as well (

Origins of the Idea 🌱
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. 🧠
Challenges Faced 🤔
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. 🔍
Creating Truly Random Links 🛠️
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
