Alqualondë is a fictional location in J.R.R. Tolkien's legendarium, specifically in the mythology of Middle-earth. It is known as the "Haven of the Swans" and serves as a port city for the Teleri Elves. Located on the shores of the Bay of Eldamar, Alqualondë is characterized by its beautiful swan ships and serene waters. The city plays a significant role in the history of the Elves, particularly during the events of the Silmarillion. It is here that the Teleri first built their ships to sail to Aman, the Undying Lands, and it is also the site of conflict when the Noldor Elves sought to take the ships for their journey.
