Interesting Attractions In Ekarris: Embassy Row
.
For the tourist interested in world affairs, there is no better place to stroll through than Embassy Row. Along this three block long stretch of Peace Street street, you can see not only the embassy of each of the Four other Kingdoms, but also the 10 countries that have diplomatic ties to Valduria, if not the entire Five Kingdoms.
From the austere Draan embassy, to the exotic Trangellen dome to the breathtakingly beautiful Faery woods, there is something different to see at every stop. The Dragon Isles offer free pastries every morning, while the semi-nomadic Hond love to show off their horses and thraks.
Visitors will be glad to know that and demonstrations of gadgetry at the Gnomish embassy have been fully inspected and approved by the Valdurian Safety Office.
Embassy Row is open from dawn to dusk every day.

Interesting Attractions In Ekarris: The West Gate
.
The West Gate of Ekarris is the oldest, largest and most ornate of the four city gates. Built in 982, the gate leads to Old Town and the Docks. Every important visitor to the city, by tradition, has walked through the West Gate.
The gate itself is made from single huge slab of native granite 100 feet wide, 40 feet tall and 10 feet thick. Using earth magic and highly skilled dwarven stoneworkers, the beautiful gate we see today was built.
A small booth tells the story of the gate and shows with pictures and models how it was built. Artists are always about and will gladly paint or draw a picture of tourists in front of the gate, for an agreed upon fee.
The gate can be visited at any time, day or night.
