There are some moments in Genshin Impact that stop you in your tracks. Perhaps it was when you emerged from a cave and viewed Sumeru for the first time. Maybe it was glimpsing Liyue Harbor from a far-off mountain peak. Either way, we've all had these experiences where beauty is too loud to be ignored. Come join us as we discover the 40 most beautiful locations in Genshin Impact.
40 Scenic Places in Genshin Impact
Southern Watatsumi Island
This gorgeous photo is taken from the perspective of the Teleport Waypoint at the southern end of Watatsumi Island. From this mountainside, you can see the Sangonomiya Shrine in all its glory. This location conveys the sheer scale of the shrine, leaving us without words.
Statue of the Omnipresent God
This photo was taken from the head of the Statue of the Omnipresent God in Inazuma City. Although this statue represents the horrors of the Vision Hunt Decree, it possesses a lovely view of Narukami Island. With scenery like this, it is difficult to avoid feeling hopeful about the future of Inazuma.
Qingce Village
This photo was taken on top of a lamppost on the western end of Qingce Village, next to the Teleport Waypoint. The location was captured without zoom, so the maximum amount of landscape could be included.
Liyue Harbor Bridge
This photo was taken on the bridge to Liyue Harbor in the north. This is most likely the first time players see Liyue Harbor, and this location introduces players to the city's beautiful streets.
Chasm Outskirts
This photo was taken from the outskirts of The Chasm, next to the Statues of the Seven on the western side. It is challenging to imagine the massive dimensions of The Chasm, but this location helps convey the scale. The Chasm looks lovely from this location.

Frostbearing Tree
This photo was taken from the base of the Frostbearing Tree in Dragonspine. This tree is located directly next to a Teleport Waypoint near the Snow-Covered Path in north Dragonspine. While this space portrays the cruelty of the cold, it also depicts the unceasing fight for life in hostile environments.
Mawtiyima Forest
This photo was taken from the north side of the Mawtiyima Forest, northeast of the Teleport Waypoint at the top of the Lokapala Jungle. While this view cannot be seen from overhead, the underbelly of Mawtiyima Forest reveals a valley of bioluminescent fungi.

This photo was taken from the trunk of a tree in the northwest Apam Woods. To navigate to this location, teleport to the waypoint in the northwest area of Apam Woods, then follow the platforms down until you get to the small house. From here, go down one more platform, and there should be a small shelf with two Rukkhashava Mushrooms.

The Jade Chamber
This photo was taken from the edge of the Jade Chamber, located high in the skies of Linyue. Not only is the structure a marvel to behold, but the view from this point is absolutely spectacular.

Mt. Aocang

Dawn Winery
This photo was taken in front of the Dawn Winery located in the Mondstadt region. This is one of the few locations where you get to enjoy a man-made structure rather than a natural one. The green vineyards backed by the majestic mountains make a great spot to sit and enjoy the view.
Serpent’s Head
This photo was taken at the Serpent's Head near Higi Village in the Inazuma region. While this place isn't as peaceful because of the continuous thunderstrikes, you can catch a lot of stunning sights like this one, featuring the mythical serpent's skeletal head.
