The Tower of Joy from Game of Thrones is a Real Castle

You might remember it from the showdown at the Tower of Joy wherein Ned Stark duelled with Targaryen forces and later on find his sister Lyanna on her deathbed with a newborn child. The real name of the imposing structure is the Castle of Zafra found in the Spanish province of Guadalajara.

When are people going to learn that you have to take the good with the bad in order to experience life to its fullest? This, to me, is only the latest in a long string of inventions that, yes, make things more convenient, but in the long run serve only to drain away a bit more of who and what we are and our place in nature. The philosophy behind these things is a sickness. Scientists wonder why more than half of Western civilization is clinically depressed on some level; well here you go: these chicks are one of the many, many myriad reasons. If that makes me no fun, then so be it. I'd rather be considered the most boring person in the world than to accept progress and convenience without examining its possible long-run consequences. Seeing the little girls with those things almost broke my heart.

Wow, I was so disappointed by the description, after reading that title.

Cyborg chicks, indeed!

But, wasn't the true definition of a cyborg a live human or animal enhanced with robotics?
