A sprawling, ancient city that was thought to be an uninhabited ruin. Aang and Zuko discover that the Sun Warrior civilization still exists here. Much of this stone metropolis is now covered in vines and sits unused. This is because the tribe is much smaller than it used to be. Some of the architecture of this ancient city is mirrored in today's Fire Nation architecture, including the Fire Sages' temples.
The City is heavily booby-trapped. The Sunstone, important to the Sun Warrior culture is hidden in a room which supposedly opens only during the solstice. Once opened, it is accessed by two people performing the Dancing Dragon, and placing their feet on the correct push-tiles. The Stone may not be removed from its pedestal, and is guarded by a powerful glue.

[edit] Celestial Calendar
Located in center of the courtyard at the Sun Warrior city is a large orange gem that refracts slivers of light onto a calendar on the ground. This gem is part of a celestial locking system that protects a sacred room the room can only be opened on specific days, like the summer solstice. The celestial calender bares a striking resemblance to the fire temple sanctuary on Crescent Island.
[edit] Connection
- The Sun Warrior's Ancient City is based off of Mayan culture.
- The building where Aang and Zuko go into to learn The Dancing Dragon resembles Chichen Itza.
