Ah, the mysterious sunken temple -- more formally known as the Temple of Atal'Hakkar -- lies in th heart of the Swamp of Sorrows and was a rarely visited dungeon even before the
Burning Crusade hit the shelves. However, this shot of the sunken temple, sent in by reader Kaeltor of Hellfire (EU), shows that despite being an unpleasant place to venture into (trust me, the undead Trolls have no concept of hospitality) it can be an impressive place to take a look at. (At least from a safe distance.)
Do you have a unique shot of Azeroth or Outland that you'd like to show off to the rest of the world? Tell us about it by e-mailing

I ran ST quite a bit actually, lots of great loot. I even soloed Morphaz and Dreamscryer (?) with my 60 shadow priest.

I don't know why it was so rarely visited. Sure, it's long. But there is a class-specific quest for every class at level 50 that ends there. Some very nice rewards, too. And if you're a caster, the Prophet drops three very nice pieces of cloth, and he drops them every time.

I really doubt that it was rarely visited. When I was levelling up, I went through it numerous times, and never had trouble finding a group.

My experiance is that it was visited for the quests, only; no one wanted to go there and only went reluctantly, to help guildies.
