A place to riff on these visions. We all have seen the popular interpretations of them. Expand your mind with more.
The Throne room of King's Landing destroyed and covered with snow. While some eager beavers might interpret this as Jon Snow sitting the Iron Throne when Dany arrives, I'm more inclined to go, if anything it shows "Dany will arrive too late". That is a common theme in ASOIAF that people come to realize what they should have done when it's too late. It's the unifying theme of the Dornish chapters of AFFC and ADWD, and if the show goes with what's being shown here--Dany will arrive in Westeros too late. It also fits the melancholic tone of the series that feels as though it is being told as though its teller is sighing at how everything that could of gone wrong did in the end--when it could have gone right but for a few changes.
Then she is beyond the Wall where she finds Drogo and Rhaego in a tent. A subtle hint that if she wants to find happiness that it must be outside of Westeros, mayhaps? Or that her only chance for happiness is now forever beyond the limits of her royal reach.
