Zanarkand

The Zanarkand Ruins are the desiccated remains of the once great city, Zanarkand. A war between Bevelle and Zanarkand 1,000 years before Yuna's pilgrimage took place, contributed to the latter's downfall. Once active and full of life, it was left dark, home only to dust and fiends. During the Eternal Calm, Zanarkand became a tourist attraction, and people from all over Spira sought to visit it, despite its previous status as a holy place. But, later the place was closed by Issaru.
