* Most of the castles in grim 'n' gritty ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'' are fairly utilitarian in aesthetic (if very grand in [[SciFiWritersHaveNoSenseOfScale scale]]), which makes the Eyrie in the Vale stand out. Located at the top of a scyscraping mountain and near a misty waterfall, it's made of white stone and takes the form of seven tall, slim towers. Its fairytale appearance befits the detachment from both [[HiddenElfVillage the war]] and [[CloudCuckoolander reality]] of its ruler Lysa Arryn and her spoiled son Robert (they almost literally live in an ivory tower), as well as Sansa's running theme of learning the hard way that life is ''not'' a fairytale.

A classic trope within {{Fairy Tale}}s, the Bright Castle is a beautiful structure usually owned by a monarch, magician or powerful creature.

* Most historical castles had layers of white wash back when they were actually functional. Because the castle was the home of a noble lord or king, they often stood as symbols of their power, and as such they would be painted or whitewashed in order to be highly visible. In addition, the interiors of many castles would be very bright, usually with layers of limestone rendering and bright white plaster, both to protect the stonework and also to reflect the light from interior illumination sources such as candles and fireplaces.
