Google Map of Westeros

Everyone knows one of the most important aspects of a good fantasy world are the maps, and A Song of Ice and Fire is no exception. There have been tons of maps of Westeros and Essos, some interactive, other just high art. Sadly, this Google-style map is more like the latter than it is the former. Made by Reddit user selvag, it is a full map of the seven kingdoms, detailing all the little towns and off-shoot roads that connect vital arteries of trade.

This is the low resolution version. The high resolution one is for sale at selvag’s Etsy shop. (Well, it was. Now it’s sold out, as demand has risen sharply in the last day or so.)

Here’s a close up of the framed version so you can see the detail.

But I’ll admit, what I would really like is a full online version, so I can attempt to plot the route from the US to Westeros (Hopefully it doesn’t require kayaking, like Google Maps once insisted I try to travel to Japan). Perhaps Dany could use it to plot her course from Meereen (she really needs to just leave, doesn’t she?) to King’s Landing (Hint, crossing the Narrow Sea will probably require a dragon ride, if not a trip on Air Targaryen). Meanwhile, you know you really want to Google street view your way through Flea Bottom, just to see the drunks and the thieves and the riff raff jeering at the 9-eye camera as it clip clops by on horseback.

Currently, redditors are clamoring for an Essos version, so hopefully one will follow soon.
