Valinor

A fictional location from J. R. R. Tolkien's legendarium, Valinor (meaning Land of the Valar) is the home of the Valar, the place to which they moved after being driven from Almaren by Melkor. Its major city was Valimar.

After the destruction of Númenor, Valinor and Aman were removed from Arda so that Men cannot reach it, but only the Elves can go there by the Straight Road. By special permission of the Valar, the hobbits Frodo Baggins and Bilbo Baggins were also permitted to go to Valinor.
