But the light of the sun & moon have already aged by that time & although indeed the gardens of Irmo are fair, I'd have to stick with Lothlorien for not only was it an undying paradise (so long as Nenya lasted)... it had an unearthly light to it. Similar to the light of the two Trees and did not the elven rings give power according to the measure of its wearers? And wasn't it said that the light of the two Trees were ensnared by Galadriel's tresses & stayed there ever after? So this could be responsible for that unearthly glow that dwells there, for Lothrlorien was modelled after the Lorien before the destruction of the two Trees.
