As production crews shoot episodes for a popular US television series, locals in a small Spanish town enjoy a travel boost that they hope will last, Daniel Silvad reports in Madrid.
Fans of the Game of Thrones fantasy TV series are flocking to the historic Spanish town of Osuna, where part of its fifth season is being filmed, fueling hopes the show will deliver a lasting tourism boost.
The tourism information center in the southern town has extended its hours since filming began on Oct 16 to deal with the influx. Hotels are fully booked until the end of the month when filming ends.
