Also known as: Tirion Upon Tuna
Tirion upon Tuna was the high white city of the Elves in Aman, raised upon the green hill of Tuna in the pass of the Calacirya, through which the light of the Two Trees streamed out of Valinor. There the Vanyar and the Noldor dwelt together before the Vanyar passed on to Valmar, and there Finwe was King of the Noldor; the silver lamps of its streets and the white tower of Ingwe, crowned with the Mindon Eldalieva, shone far out across the shadowy seas. From Tirion the rebellious Noldor went forth into their long exile, and few of them ever returned.
