Saw this somewhere else, and thought it might be interesting to ask this here.
What is your favorite place in the wide world under Her (The Goddess of the Dawn) auspicious skies? What is your favorite "zone", and why?
For me it is Zi'tah.
It's a personal sanctuary for me, where I can hide away beneath the great big redwoodesque trees, and be carried away by the flow of the rain as it splatters the ground beneath my feet. And the music is beautiful...
What about everyone else?

I like bibiki bay. It is just so relaxing. Its like a nice vacation on the beach. Just make sure you have your rod and reel.
I haven't been to Zi'Tah yet, so I have no idea what its like, but scenery plays a secondary role for me when judging a location. What plays the primary role, you ask? One word: Danger.
I love places where I can be on the edge, walking that fine line between life and death. One wrong move means death, one dropped sneak or invis and you get aggro'd out the ***, etc...
That being said, I have to say that nothing even compares to Ifrit's Cauldron for that level of intensity. I've only attempted 2 mining excursions into that place, both times resulting in one or two mining points and a swift death, but I refuse to give up.
That place gets my heart racing even before I zone into it. Just the knowledge that I'm going to Ifrit's gets me psyched up.
Granted, I haven't visited some of the higher level zones yet, but opinions change and will reform as I do, I'm sure. Still, it's going to be hard pressed to knock off Ifrit's Cauldron as my favorite place to go.

For me it's Garlaige Citadel. Same reason, I like to have that feeling of death hovering just overhead (I'm a Paladin, why wouldn't I want that feeling in an area ^^).
Besides that, it looks so cool in there! All kinds of ruins and holes and dead things and oooh! Its fun alright, and I haven't even gone past the banishing gates yet :)

For those who know me, there are three places I take a shine to.
First and foremost is Twinkle Tree Hill up in Western Sarutabaruta. No place feels like home more than sitting atop the hill, waiting for the light show, and then turning to find the sunrise welcoming me.
Secondly, I cherish the Sanctuary of Zi'tah. What with the music, and the trees, taking a stroll there can last an eternity and still be a wonderful sight with every passing moment.
Thirdly, there is Purgonogo Island. I have watched many a sunrise and sunset there, watching the waters turn from emerald green to cerulian blue, in anticipation of the passing of the nights and days.
If ever you want a trip or picnic to any of these three places, I will be more than happy to guide you there and sit with you.

My favorite place to be is Windurst. I look at Windy and think: This would be a great place to live. I can just imagine waking up and walking out to a cool crisp morning, the wind coming off the sea from port blowing through my hair (yes, I know... but Oni, you're bald... I am getting my winter coat LOL) The airship flying in with all its magnificance. The people milling about getting ready for the day. The smells of people cooking their breakfasts in the residence area or from the Rarab's Tail. The flowing of the water from the tree fountain. I can just imagine sitting on the docks and sipping a nice cup of coffee and having a feeling of eternal bliss...

My favorite place would have to be underneath the stairs at any of the Crags. It is one of the easiest places for me to get to since i'm a white mage, and no one can ever see me there. I usually go there to just to think or relax. If I'm going to remain logged in when I am afk I go there also.
oh yeah.. just to let you all know... I will giving rate ups like crazy on this thread... what a great idea Nights...
favorite place for me... Hall of the Gods, i cant pass it yet, and theres nothing else to do there, but i like it there. i like Zi'Tah as well, for all of the reasons already listed
Ill have to agree that the Sanctuary of Zi'tah and Purgonogo Island/Manaclipper are some of the most beautiful places
also worth mentioning are Xarcabard(when its clear out), and I think Crawlers Nest is really cool
I cant wait to check out some places I cant go yet too, like Sky and the Tavnazia areas

The log on screen is that place for me. Cause is when I know that I will embark on a new adventure.
My favorite place in all of Vana'diel is close to home...
It is Knightwell in West Ronfaure at dawn and dusk...
The mist forms over the water somedays, the sun breaks others, its so peaceful. Check out the Roleplaying LS thread, Yukio's backstory is there, I included Knightwell.
I just love it ^^

My favorite place bottom line is in the Ru'Lude Gardens across from Maat. My link shell dubs it "The Spot" when I get down on life or the game in general I sit there across from Maat just smiling thinking of the best way for him to die by my sword. Which is great now since I got my Dark Knight Testimony last night. Soon Maat soon you will dance no more old man.
For me it is the place in Jugner forest. Maiden's spring. Soothing, relaxing..the place to hang out ^^; There is a place just like it across the map at another lake, crystal spring i believe, also very nice to be sitting at ^^

While it's appearance gives it a dreary look, you have to take it for what it really is. A nice quiet place to relax... maybe craft and just forget everything as a whole.
Good Times ^^

Lufaise Meadows is my favorite place to go. Each time I go there I think about how much I had to go through just to be able to get there and I begin killing the zone all over again! Between the music, the landmarks, and the monsters it's become the most relaxing place for me in the game. ^_^
My favorite place would have to be all of Ronfaure and the first few sections of Ranperre's Tomb. Simply because those are the zones I first leveled in, and every time I go there I get memories of my first few weeks. ^^
And Ronfaure has one of the best BGM's I've heard in this game so far. :)

I really like La Theine Plateau - it reminds me a little bit of the British highlands, as you're leaving Scotland and heading down into England. It's pretty, and I love it on those rare occasions when you can see the rainbow over the Holla crag. :)
I like Ru'Lude Gardens or just sitting in my MH.
I can see me hanging out in the Glacier and Xarcabard a lot, since I love snowy weather and I really like that music in Xarcabard.
Now I just have to get to a level where I won't get abused in there too much. lol

I like to hang out in the Woodworking guild in Sandy. Im usually there with a field tunica on widdle away at wood. Its nice to have hard working people arround you synth away and to run into friends while your there crafting.
let's see....
As many people, I like Zi'tah, nice music, beatiful crystal ponds, nice trees, etc...
Rolanberry field is also an interesseting place, it's very quiet and has a nice music also
Finally,and oddly, Xarcabard. The death and desolation of the place is unreal but somewhat cool. First time I saw this place I was pretty impressed and i'm still impressed everytime I go there.

As one can discern from my "Posting from:" line, my favorite zone is still West Sarutabaruta.
I love the rocky beach at the south, near Port. Starfall Hillock is the coolest place to just sit and chat.
Giddeus and the ruins are close by offering some fun NM pops and Wild Onions to feed my Mithka making habit.
It also connects to my favorite part of Windy, Windy Waters.

Starfall Hillock! That's the name ^^
I never remember, so I always call it "Twinkle Tree Hill".
*blush* I'm such a goof ^^
