Although World of Warcraft is graphically a bit dusty after over 10 years, there are at least some places for me that still give me goosebumps.
This may be partly because I had beautiful role play in these places and therefore they have stayed in my memory. Other places are simply historically interesting because they hold great significance for the lore of Warcraft. Lastly, there are the places where the whole atmosphere just fits together: be it the soundtrack, the quiet sounds of the surroundings, or the design of the world itself. I will show you a small selection of my “most beautiful places” in World of Warcraft – perhaps you know some of them and want to share them with us.
Zul’Gurub
Although as an elf fan I consider troll architecture relatively unappealing, the old Zul’Gurub is still a place I cherish. Even during Classic, I occasionally sneaked into the area that players usually had no access to (let’s remember, dear children: back then there were no flying mounts!). The whole residential area with all its cult sites is built around a temple of Hakkar – I found that impressive. Zul’Gurub is probably the largest city in the game in terms of surface area.
