The '''King's Way''' is one of the four straight streets which starts at the unnamed great square in the center of [[King's Landing]], the three others being the [[Gods' Way]], the [[Muddy Way]], and the [[Street of the Sisters]].{{Ref|FAB|Birth, Death, and Betrayal Under King Jaehaerys I}} The King's Way likely leads to the [[Red Keep]],<ref group="N">It is known there are four straight streets which sprung from the great square in the center of the city (''[[Fire & Blood]]'', "Birth, Death, and Betrayal Under King Jaehaerys I"). The locations of the Muddy Way and the Street of the Sisters are known (''[[The Lands of Ice and Fire]]'', "King's Landing"), leaving the location of the God's Way and the King's Way unknown. However, one of the unnamed streets goes to the [[Gate of the Gods]] and the other to the [[Red Keep]], making it likely that the Gods' Way is the street leading up to the Gate of the Gods, while the King's Way leads to the Red Keep, the seat of the king.</ref> and if so is joined by the [[Hook]] along [[Aegon's High Hill]].<ref>''[[A Clash of Kings]]'', [[A Clash of Kings-Map of King's Landing|Map of King's Landing]]</ref>

==History==
[[King's Landing]] rapidly grew without any planning during the first century following [[Aegon's Conquest]], so much so that by the reign of King [[Jaehaerys I Targaryen]], the streets were close by each other, dark and filthy. In {{Date|52}}, Jaehaerys ordered a reconstruction of the streets, which included the construction of a great central square, carved out and planted with trees, with markets and arcades beneath. From this square sprung the King's Way.{{Ref|FAB|Birth, Death, and Betrayal Under King Jaehaerys I}}
