The Azure WindowHistory
The natural icon was a popular spot in pop-culture.[1] For example, it served as the background to the wedding of Daenerys Targaryen and Khal Drogo in the first season of Game of Thrones (shown below).
On March 8th, 2017, a storm hit Malta and caused the Azure Window to collapse into the sea.
