Possible Door to Khaenri'ah Location in Gavireh Lajavard

The suspected Door to Khaenri'ah in Hangeh Afrasiyab can now be visited on Genshin Impact 3.6. Learn how to find this secret area in Hangeh Afrasiyab and how to find the door to the undiscovered region!

Is the Hangeh Afrasiyab Door the Gate to Khaenri'ah?

Possibly Linked to Khaenri'ah

The door that can be found in the Hangeh Afrasiyab secret area bears an emblem similar to symbols that are linked to Khaenri'ah (like the crest on Halfdan, a former Elite Royal Guard of Khaenri'ah), which suggests its connection to the undiscovered region.

One of the lost books that can be found within the area also mentions the name of King Irmin, who was once a king of the said nation.

Complete As the Khvarena's Light Shows

As the Khvarena's Light Shows Quest Guide

Take the Elevator in Hangeh Afrasiyab

If you unlocked the underground teleport waypoint in Hangeh Afrasiyab during the quest, you can fast travel there to go straight to where the elevator is. Ride the elevator all the way down until you reach a room covered in sand and crystals.

Follow the Cavern to the East

Turn east and you should find a switch that opens the door nearby, which leads to another underground area. Keep following the tunnel until you see the Door to Khaenri'ah across the broken bridge.

Approaching the Broken Bridge Unlocks an Achievement

After finding the door, you can approach the broken bridge (where the Viewpoint) is to unlock the ...Abandon All Hope, Ye Who Enter Here Achievement.

Climb the Roots to Reach the Door

Actually getting to the door is quite tricky as there is no convenient way to cross the pit. You'll have to climb the giant roots on the walls to gain enough elevation until you can reach the other side of the bridge using your glider.

Characters that are great for exploration are a huge help in this part, like Kazuha and Venti who can instantly give you a boost, or Wanderer who can do the same and also allows you to move horizontally in midair.
