Manarai Mountains

In the Star Wars universe the Manarai Mountains were a park on the planet Coruscant that contained the last exposed land on the otherwise completely industrialized planet. Polar ice caps that don't reach the ground and artificial lakes and seas built atop urban layers are sometimes mistaken for actual surface, although the Manarai are the only actual place where natural terrain is visible on the entire planet. A small cluster of mountaintops breaks through the vast urbanization to provide a small range, punctuated by two peaks. Countless millennia ago, as Coruscant was being heavily urbanized and more and more land was being developed, eventually it was realized that only land not settled or built-on was the Manarai Mountains, and even much of that chain was occupied, until finally a small patch of the mountains was set aside as a nature preserve (preserving the only nature left on Coruscant). The mountains themselves are a famous landmark and seeing them is a popular tourist attraction, although actually setting foot on the mountains is strictly prohibited to preserve them. The perimeter is guarded constantly by the Coruscant Guard, wary of anybody who would actually try to steal soil or rocks from the famous mountains.

Within sight of the the Manarai Mountains is The Manarai, the most famous and exclusive resturant on all of Coruscant. Sitting atop a tall tower in Monument Park, The Manarai is designed to provide a breathtaking view of the cityscape of Coruscant as well as the mountains themselves. Huge windows and domes provide panoramic views, with the very best chefs in the galaxy providing the finest cuisine (virtually any meal in the galaxy can be prepared with sufficient notice). In addition to the view and the quality, security is also paramount, as all visitors and especially employees received extensive background checks before being invited to come to The Manarai. The owners of The Manarai were kept secret during the reign of the Galactic empire, but were rumored to include a Hutt clan lord, several Moffs and possibly Prince Xizor
