The Un'goro Crater gets its name from the 'Ngorongoro Conservation Area.' A massive wildlife park in Tanzania that is very similar to our Un'goro Crater.
Great place to quest. Before it was a flightpath hub this zone was almost devoid of people which made it nice on a PvP server because it decreased your chances of getting ganked. Not sure what it is like now.
Besides that, the area is nice for quests, there are some funny allusions that Blizzard implemented, such as the npc's Muigin and Larion. In reference to Mario and Luigi from Nintendo. Muigin is the alliance person and Larion is the horde quest giver. In my expierence you want to stay away from the one who is hostile because they do come after you if you are really close.
Also there is Linken, the NPC who relates to Link, the Nintendo Hero of Legends. His quest chain starts near a crashed boat in the southeast of the zone which can be found here: http://www.wowhead.com/?object=161505 The quest chain ends with a reward of Linkin's boomerang.
