MapleStory/Towns/China

Dong Fang Shen Zhou / China is the area, naturally, based on Chinese culture. It consists of four separate parts. They are Shanghai Wai-Tan, Yuyuan Garden, Mount Song Town and Grand Hall of the Great Sage. The phrase "Dong Fang Shen Zhou", translates in English to "The Eastern Divine Land", or "The Oriental Divine Land".

Shanghai is the main area of China. It is a modern, urban town, featuring a ferry that floats past in the background. On the far right an NPC stands by with an airplane, and there's even a hot air balloon that players can climb into. The NPCs in Shanghai sell the typical things, such as armor, potions, and weapons for levels 40 and below. There is a quest involving the defeat of the one boss found here. Outside of Shanghai are farm-themed maps, where Roosters, Ducks, Sheep, Black Sheep, Goats, Black Goats, Cows and Plow Oxen can be found. These maps move further away from the town, as can be seen by the fading buildings in the background. At the end of Shanghai's farm maps, the King Centipede boss is located. Defeating this boss allows a player to finish a quest where the ever valuable Steely Throwing Stars and Blue Moon are a possible prize.

This area is almost exclusively made up of shops. A variety of items are available from a number of different NPCs. The Yuyuan Garden also leads to a PVP arena map, which has three doors that lead to three different battle ground maps. It involves a number of contests between two Maplers, usually killing a monster first or completing a jump quest in the fastest time. There is a Free Market entrance here. Yuyuan Garden has no monsters at this time. It is currently only available in ChinaMS and TaiwanMS.

Mount Song is based on the past of China, and is the latest exclusive map. It features very powerful monsters and seemingly has a boss. Mount Song Town is the first town in the Shaolin Monastery area, an ancient Chinese style town that is surrounded by bamboo trees where merchants sell potions and weapons, and town folks giving out quests. The other features in the Mount Song Town are a Free Market entrance, Hair Salon, Plastic Surgery, and Skin care. Little else is known at this point. Mount Song Town can be accessed by talking to Spinel the World Tour Guide in ChinaMS.
