Faraer 10-04-03, 01:30 PM	Yes, it's partially mapped in the Forgotten Realms Atlas and FRE3 Waterdeep. Several of Ed's novels have scenes set within. In the Realms, secure areas like that are protected from entry and scrying by multi-layered warding spells.

Of course, you could place anything within. I'm certain I read that the interior dimensions do not match the assumed dimensions from the outside.
Darkmistress 10-05-03, 04:23 AM	I remember that there's a portal to a cave in somewhere cold, in place of a refrigerator. Oh, and another portal to some tree or another that bears fruits all years. Probably not what you're looking for, though. ;)
