Southern Air Temple

Location from Avatar: The Last Airbender by Michael Dante DiMartino & Bryan Konietzko

Aang's childhood home — a mountaintop monastery of soaring spires and sky bison stables, now a silent graveyard where the Fire Nation's genocide of the Air Nomads began.

Also known as: Aang's temple, Southern Temple

What They Know
