Areas
Like all large cities, Orgrimmar is divided up into various areas.

The Valley of Strength


The Valley of Strength is the main area of Orgrimmar. Housing the Auction House, the Bank, the Inn and the Wyvern Master, it is a bustling hive of activity for most of the day and night, with all manner of Horde players frequenting its shops and facilities. It is also the first area encountered after passing through the main gate.

The Drag
The main road linking the valleys of Honour and the valley of wisdom with the cleft of shadows. many shops line the road.

The Cleft of Shadow
Home to the Ragefire Chasm instance, and the Rogue and Warlock trainers.

The Valley of Wisdom
The center of goverment for the hord. Warchief Thrall and Vol'Jin hold court within Grommash Hold, named after fallen hero Grom Hellscream, Thrall's closest friend. Grommash Hold in the Valley of Wisdom is also home to Orgrimmar's shaman trainers.
 * Warchief Thrall
 * Vol'jin
 * Nazgrel

The Valley of Spirits
The valley dedicated to the study of the etherial and spiritual. Mage and Preist trainers reside here.



The Talon Gate
The seldom-used west gate into the city. The gate is problematic because it presents an avenue to Thrall for invaders that bypasses the most populated sections of the city.
