The Grand Piazza is the central plaza of Lion's Arch. Most of it is covered by a huge roof construction made of glass and steel, which could (by some imagination) represent a jellyfish. It connects Trader's Forum, the Western Ward, the Eastern Ward, and Fort Marriner.

Vistas

Grand Piazza Vista —

1. Don't try to jump from the stacks of boxes! Run up on the small hill to the north.
2. Jump onto the top of the colored mushroom platform, either from the aqua rail or the top of the hill.
3. From the mushroom jump to the top tier box. This takes very precise jumping!

This vista can be reached easily, without a mount, during Halloween, using the candy corn decorations to jump up the stack of boxes.
