Shu Jing

Shu Jing is a town located in the Fire Nation.

History


Situated on a cliff above a river and waterfalls, and surrounded by beautiful mountains, this is one of the many small, peaceful villages that are tucked away throughout the Fire Nation islands. Because of its secluded location and natural surroundings, Piandao decided it would be the perfect place to pursue his artistic interests.

This is the village in which the Avatar and his friends stopped to watch the meteor shower. When one meteorite lands in the grasslands, Aang, Katara, and Toph use their bending to put it out. Once in town, the group has lunch, Smoked Sea Slug. Sokka realizes he doesn't contribute to the group. They go to a weapons store located in town. The store is the biggest vintage weapon store in the Fire Nation. After this Sokka goes to Piandao and learns the way of the sword.

Piandao's Palace


Formerly the home of a Fire Nation nobleman, this castle sat unused and in disrepair for many years. Piandao cleaned, painted, and landscaped it all himself, making sure all the elements were in harmony. Perched high on a cliff overlooking the town, Piandao's castle is huge, boasting sixteen bedrooms, two gardens, a sword making foundry, and stables. The white lotus motif can be seen throughout the castle, including on the front door. Other objects of note include the Lion Turtle sculptures located in the rock garden.
