The Imperial City Map

A Cidade Imperial (também conhecida como Cidade de Cyrodiil) é a capital de Cyrodiil e de todo o Império. A cidade circular se localiza na Ilha Cidade, uma ilha no Lago Rumare do Vale Nibenay ao centro da província Imperial. Ao meio fica o distrito da Via Imperial Verde, contendo o Palácio Imperial e sua Torre Ouro-Branco. Cercando-o há seis distritos, começando nordeste e indo horário:

Distrito Mercantil Distrito da Arena Arboretum Distrito do Templo Distrito do Plaza Talos Distrito dos Jardins Élficos

Também na ilha há a Universidade Arcana, a Prisão Imperial e a Beira-mar, que é o porto da Cidade Imperial. Uma única ponte conecta a cidade ao continente próximo a Weye. Estradas levam da capital à todos os lugares.

The Sewer System

Underneath the Imperial City is a sewer system as large as the city itself. The sewers can be accessed from most districts of the city; there are also a few entrances outside of the city. The sewer system is a fairly complex maze. The east and west sections of the sewer do not connect to each other, but within those sections there are many interconnections.

Occasionally, when a person from the Imperial City tries to go a different district than they are already in, their AI will decide that going through the sewers is quicker than walking the streets; so they'll duck into the nearest house with a sewer entrance in the basement and travel underground, possibly putting themselves in danger from rats and Goblins.

The Eastern Sewers

The sewers that connect together on the east half of the city are (from north to south):

• The North Tunnel (accessed from the Imperial Sewers N. Exit).
• The Market Sewers (under the Market District).
• Beneath the Bloodworks (under the Arena District, but not accessible from there).
• The Palace Sewers.
• The South East Tunnel (under the Arboretum, and also accessible from the Imperial Sewers SE. Exit).

The Western Sewers

The sewers that connect together on the west half of the city are (from north to south):

• The Elven Garden Sewers (under the Elven Gardens District).
  • This sewer system also contains Sunken Sewers and Sewer Waterworks.
• The Talos Plaza Sewers (under the Talos Plaza District).
• The Temple Sewers (under the Temple District, but not accessible from there).
  • This sewer system also contains The South West Tunnel.

Other Sewers

There is an additional unconnected piece of the sewer:

• Imperial Prison Sewer, which should be familiar to all players as part of the tutorial. A different version of it is also used during Scheduled for Execution.

The Watch Towers

The watch towers are the tall structures located in six "corners" of the city. They serve as a bunker for the Imperial Guards, many of which can be found sleeping at night on the towers' upper floors. This, of course, includes many essential and temporarily-essential guards. Such guards include Hieronymus Lex and Adamus Phillida, who become non-essential at the end of the Thieves Guild quest Taking Care of Lex and upon acceptance of the Dark Brotherhood quest Permanent Retirement, respectively.

Locations

There is a watch tower at each of six "corners" of the Imperial City. Their names make their locations rather self-explanatory.
