Mythic worlds of other traditions: the Polynesian Po, the Vodou Ginen beneath the waters, the Garden of Eden and the Chinese immortal island of Penglai. A realm belongs here when its cited article describes a world or paradise land of one of these traditions. It excludes Norse and Celtic worlds. Examples in the atlas include Po, Ginen, The Garden of Eden and Penglai. The group is residual to the Norse and Celtic worlds, so a world of another tradition is admitted here after those two groups have refused it.
