One of Aegon's sisters, Rhaenys Targaryen, flew on her dragon, Meraxes, above the Dornishmen guarding the Prince's Pass, but each Dornish castle she visited was abandoned. When she came to Sunspear, she was met by Meria Martell, Princess of Dorne, who warned her that the Targaryens would face peril if they attacked Dorne.
Sunspear, also known as the Old Palace, is the seat of House Nymeros Martell and the capital of Dorne. The castle is located on the Broken Arm, north of the Greenblood on the far southeastern coast of Westeros and is surrounded on three sides by the sea, and by the shadow city on the fourth side.
Dorne is ruled from the castle of Sunspear by House Martell. One thousand years ago, Dorne was a shifting patchwork of small Andal states, with no ruler strong enough to seize control of the entire region.
Dorne is in the southern-most part of Westeros. It is on the peninsula because it is bordered by the Sea of Dorne to the north. The capital of Dorne is Sunspear, where the ruling family of the region (the House Martell) resides. The other major cities in Dorne are Starfall, Yronwood, and Planky Town.

Feb 23, 2017 · Sunspear is the largest and most impressive castle in Dorne. A thousand years ago it was a more modest stronghold, shaped by a cunning and gifted stonemason like a great ship, its prow jutting out over the sea.
Central Dorne is a true rolling-sands desert, with little plant life and almost completely uninhabited by people, save for the occasional oasis-castle. Dorne's population is congregated around the coasts, and the few major rivers such as the Greenblood.
