Temple of the White Tiger (Alliance)

This quest is an optional breadcrumb to the opening of the Gate of the August Celestials quest chain. In Patch 5.4.0, its text was changed significantly to reflect the corruption of the Vale of Eternal Blossoms.

Speak to at the Temple of the White Tiger in Kun-Lai Summit.

Have you heard the news, traveller? There's been at attack at one of our most sacred places, the Vale of Eternal Blossoms!

Even now, there's a human prince within the White Tiger Temple arguing that you and the other races from beyond the mists should be allowed within.

The temple is in the northeast of Kun-Lai. Maybe you can convince the White Tiger to allow you inside?

I only hope the Vale has not been utterly destroyed...

You will receive:

• 97,000 XP

<Class>, I'm glad you're here! The "Vale of Eternal Blossoms" is legendary among the Pandaren. It's a place of great healing, if the locals are to be believed.

But the Horde Warchief has done something to the Vale - something terrible.

We need to get in there!

When talked to, Anduin has this to say:

• Oh, hello,.
• Your timing couldn't be better.

This quest and associated dialogue were reworded after Garrosh Hellscream caused the corruption of much of the Vale of Eternal Blossoms in patch 5.4.0. Formerly, it focused on the historic nature of the opening of the gates for the first time in many years. The NPCs discussed incursions by the Mogu instead of the attack by Hellscream, although Taran Zhu's objections to the Horde and Alliance remained the same.

Have you heard the news, traveller? After thousands of years, the Golden Lotus has petitioned the celestials to open the gates to the Vale of Eternal Blossoms!

Even now, there's a human prince within the White Tiger Temple arguing that you and the other races from beyond the mists should be allowed within.

The Temple is in the northeast of Kun-Lai. Maybe you can convince the White Tiger to allow you inside?

This is a truly historic moment...

<Class>, I'm glad you're here! The Pandaren tell of a legendary place, the "Vale of Eternal Blossoms." It's a place of great healing, if the locals are to be believed.

Between the destruction of the Cataclysm, and the horrors of this light-forsaken war, the Vale may be our best hope for healing the wounds of the world.

We need to get in there!
