Description from official site:
Talador is the heart of Draenor. It rests at the crossroads of the continent, divided by rivers that flow from the Sea of Zangar and enable marine trade and movement from east to west. At the center of Talador shines the glorious cathedral city of Shattrath: a museum metropolis, an architectural marvel, a preserved recreation of ancient draenei culture—entirely occupied by the Iron Horde.Talador is the zone that is currently known as Terokkar Forest in Outland. As well as Shattrath City, the other main point of interest of the zone is Auchindoun, the ancient mausoleum for Draenei. Auchindoun will be a dungeon for adventurers to brave.

This zone has some beautiful music. They have re-used a soundtrack from the Terokkar Forest zone of Outland. I couldn't quite place the music in the beginning, it simply made me think "I have been here before! The Celtic ballad like soundtrack is unlike any music I have heard in WoW before.
