Iconic/hallowed places? A couple . . .after the story is over, the site of the last battle becomes holy, hallowed and iconic (all at once!) because of various things that happen and people that die in the end.

During the story, well, Avalon is the center of my elven culture, and as elves aren't native to this world (in my story) the Glen at the center of Avalon, where they first arrived, is rather important to them. Stonehenge, Tara, the middle of Stanley Park (if you know where I'm talking about . . .don't ask. ^~) and various other holy places are centers of correspondance between our world and "faery" if you wish to call it that.

S'about all.
