Mondstadt Region Overview and Content Hub

Mondstadt is one of the seven regions of Teyvat. It is the nation of Anemo, ruled by the God of Freedom. This region is located northeast of Teyvat. It is the very first region you visit when you start the game.

Inspired by Germany, Mondstadt is a very relaxing town located on a small Island in the middle of the lake. The town is surrounded by wide-open plains, and various mountains. The wind carries the scent of Dandelions, and the gift of freedom from the Anemo God, Barbatos.

How to Unlock the Mondstadt Region?

Mondstadt unlocks when you start the game, as you will begin your journey on a beach in this zone. The Prologue of the Archon Quest takes place in Mondstadt.

When you start, you have access to Starfell Valley, Galesong Hill, and Windwail Highland. Once you complete the Prologue: Act I - The Outlander Who Caught the Wind, you can unlock the remaining sub-regions: Brightcrown Mountains and Dragonspine.

3.2.

Anemo Blobs

Anemo blobs can be found floating in the air, for example around a tree, on top of a bridge, or hidden behind objects. If you see any Anemo blob acting weird, shoot it with an arrow. They usually unlock a mechanism or a chest.

Elemental Monuments

Elemental Monuments

During your exploration, you will encounter some sort of small pillars with a specific element on them. You will have to hit the pillar with that element to Unlock what is hidden behind it. Some may require you to hit the pillars in a specific order, or under a time limit.

Some chests may be locked behind a storm barrier. You will have to find a way to enter the barrier by flying in from the top, or find the nearby mechanism that deactivates the barrier.

Dragonspine

Dragonspine is a sub-region from Mondstadt that was added later on, and that has a specific Freeze mechanic. It is a huge snowy mountain, and as such, your characters will suffer from being too cold.
