Southern Water Tribe compound

The Southern Water Tribe Compound lies deep within the South Pole. It is a small, isolated encampment secured by thick ice walls and a large gate. The enclosure features several watchtowers, large buildings for shelter, an obstacle course and sub-level pens lined with hay for fauna, such as Naga. A large raised platform made of ice is located in the center of the camp, both for Korra's bending training and combat practice. Members of the Order stand on a wooden pavilion overlooking the platform, where they monitor Korra's progress. Sentries from the White Lotus also man the watchtowers and clear any individual wishing to enter or exit the encampment.

Architecture in Korra's camp ranges from traditional water-based structures such as igloos to buildings with a stone foundation. Wooden pavilions and metal tanks are also present within the enclosure. The encampment reflects Water Tribe culture as several totem poles can be seen within the camp, while animal pelts line the walls of the buildings' interior. For the most part, however, the majority of the buildings resemble traditional Earth Kingdom architecture. Ornate patterns and a large lion turtle adorn the outer gates, a reference to the Order of the White Lotus.
