    Default If you could travel to one place in Arda...

    Where would you go?

    Personally, I would go to the very top of Minas Tirith and just sit there. I'm sure it would be a lovely sight.

    "I want to see mountains again Gandalf, mountains" I would visit The Lonely Mountain. It would be a nice view of Mirkwood and Dale.

    Well, idk. I wouldn't want to just be in one place. Especially not JUST in Middle Earth. There is so much to Arda. It expands deep to the East and South. I would want to explore it all. Find what crazy things lay beyond the relatively tiny map of Middle Earth.

    Well now I have heard that the world of Middle Earth was supposed to resemble the earth today, but I think that fan made map looks a little too obvious.

    Well, these were found on two different sites made by different people so you tell me where they got the ideas from.

    From each other?

    Many of the names seem to be from the "middle-earth-roleplaying"-game from the 80's, which is used as a source by many games and mods, but is not exactly Tolkien:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle-earth_Role_Playing

    I don't know maybe there was even a map of whole Arda included at some point and that's the source?

    The rough idea of the geography (apart from some very vague mentions in the texts) is of course based on some rough sketches by Tolkien himself like this one:

    That map does look kinda obivious and sucky. But personally I would want to go to Beleriand maybe visit doriath or thangorodin.

    Well, I would dress as an Easterling in my awesome armour outfit and visit Caras Galadhon to troll the Lothlorien Elves (don't know if I would live long enough though to see if they were trolled at all :p
