Zaofu

Zaofu is a city that was built by Suyin Beifong entirely out of metal in the Earth Kingdom. Team Avatar traveled to this city in 171 AG in their search to recruit new airbenders to rebuild the Air Nation.

History
Sometime between 141 and 171 AG, Suyin Beifong purchased a parcel of land that would eventually expand to become the city of Zaofu. In advancing her project, Suyin hired an architect, whom she later married. Her mother Toph used to visit the city occasionally before traveling around the world to seek enlightenment. Suyin's half-sister, Lin, detested the idea of going there because of the two siblings' hostile relationship.

In 171 AG, a few weeks after Harmonic Convergence, Avatar Korra came to Zaofu in search of Su's daughter, Opal, who had become an airbender, so as to commence her training in the art.
