This is the capital city for the Undead race, and is located in south-central Tirisfal Glades.
The city is located completely under the ruins of Lordaeron, which was a Human capital during Warcraft III lore. A neat feature about the ruins is that, if you stand in the abandoned throne room and listen, you can hear whispers of the past (basically, sound clips from the Warcraft III storyline).
The city can be a bit confusing to navigate at first. To enter it, you need to go behind the abandoned throne room to access the elevators that take you beneath the city. Once you exit it and follow the corridor, you will be at the central part of the city, where you will find the bank. The ramps in the middle take you down into the depths of the city, where you can access the outer rings, the three Quarters, and the Apothecarium, where the new leader of the city resides.

Capital of the Forsaken, not the undead.
To be exact about the whispers: If you stand in the hallway before the Throne Room, the room with the broken bell, and turn up your ambience volume this might happen: You hear bells ringin' --> Now go slowly into the throne room and you'll hear the last conversation Arhtas had with his father, just before he killed him. It's a very cool little thing that made me like that city so much more!
