Lion's Arch
From Guild Wars 2 Wiki
The Free City of Lion's Arch is a pirating city in Kryta where the architecture has been described as mostly overturned boats and other old re-purposed nautical equipment. Once the seat of power and the main trading city of Kryta, Lion's Arch was destroyed by flood when Orr rose from the ocean. After the flood water receded, it was rebuilt by mercenaries and corsairs, where it still exists today as the Guild Home and a melting pot to fighters of all races.
Lion's Arch also contains a portal to the Mists that all races can use - the only currently known others are in Tomb of the Primeval King, which was corrupted by Abaddon and seemingly is near where the Dragonbrand ends, in the Tomb of Drascir, deep in charr territory, and on the Battle Isles, which was sunk by the flood caused by Zhaitan's rise.
Player versus Player will likely operate out of this city.[1]
