Si Wong Desert
Location from Avatar: The Last Airbender by Michael Dante DiMartino & Bryan Konietzko
A vast, merciless desert in the central Earth Kingdom — home to sandbenders, giant buzzard wasps, and the buried entrance to Wan Shi Tong's Library.
Also known as: Si Wong, the Great Desert, sandbender desert
