Hueco Mundo
A large portion of Hueco Mundo is covered by a desert, a silent world of death. An unchanging night covers the sky, an endless white desert covers the ground. The tree-like objects are not plants, but rather quartz-like minerals.
The landscape of Hueco Mundo is a seemingly never-ending white desert, with a multitude of dunes. The desert is littered with what appear to be boulders and shriveled trees, but these are actually a form of quartz. In Hueco Mundo, the moon is on the opposite lunar phase of that in the Living Realm. The vast desert also seems to lack any bodies of water and contains rocky formations. Like in Soul Society, the atmosphere is filled with a high concentration of Reishi, thus allowing smaller Hollows to gain nourishment despite the lack of Human souls.
Similar to the case of living realm deserts, active life in Hueco Mundo appears to be few and far between. Hollows generally seem to dwell below the surface or in other areas until something provokes them to leave their shelter, like the intrusion of a foreign entity. All Hollows thrive in Hueco Mundo regardless of their shape, size, or power.
Las Noches
Las Noches is a massive fortress which can be seen for miles. It consists of a main building with a domed center surrounded by several large towers and smaller buildings Atop the dome are five smaller towers, which appear to contain areas such as the CeroEspada's throne rooms and the Espada meeting hall. Like everything else in Hueco Mundo, the main building is colored white.
Las Noches is easily the largest structure in the Bleach universe, appearing as larger than Seireitei within Soul Society. Due to its immense size one will not seem to make any progress getting closer to it, despite running until they were exhausted. Also, it takes about three days to move from one spot to a gate.
The inside of Las Noches' dome simulates the blue sky of the Human World, it's more than likely that the area under the dome is separated on a spacial plane, due to the sky and seemingly endless plains of glistening sand. The position of the halls within the palace can also be adjusted, allowing the one operating them to direct the movements of intruders.
Due to their immense power, Espada ranked Cuartra to Cero are forbidden from releasing their Zanpakutō within Las Noches. It is also forbidden for any Espada to use a Gran Rey Cero inside Las Noches.
Forest Of Menos
The Forest of Menos is an area below the surface of Hueco Mundo's desert where the average Hollow hide from the Arrancar.
The forest is filled with large trees made of a silvery quartz substance. These trees extend to the surface and dot the landscape of the desert in Hueco Mundo. The Arrancar have a considerable amount of influence here, judging by a large group of Hollows bowing down upon seeing an Arrancar or feeling the reiatsu of one, though many will still attempt to devour them. The Adjuchas often are at the top of the food chain in the forest, surpassed only by the presence of one or two Vasto Lorde.
Las Salvadores
Las Salvadores is a rarity among the areas of Hueco Mundo, being a lush and life filled oasis underneath the moon of the otherwise barren desert. Water exists in large amounts as lakes rivers and streams litter Las Salvadores. The oasis is plentiful with lesser hollow, and even sustaining Adjuchas and a couple of Vasto Lorde, though Gillian would often find the untamed wilderness of Las Salvadores unmaneuverable. While the trees are still made of the same quartz as the rest of Hueco Mundo, they possess a myriad of hues, often illuminating the reishi rich water and landscapes in a surreal glow. Threads of reishi often cling to the trees and function much like moss, also bringing life to the lesser hollows. Las Salvadores could best be described as a crystalline rain forest, being something more out of a dream.
Arrancar very rarely visit the area, having no knowledge of its existence. The few who do travel into the area will find themselves removed from the rest of Hueco Mundo. Due to their separation from Las Noches, the leaders of Las Salvadores come in the form of strange tribal hollows going under the name of Sincara. While the Sincara resemble a cross between Arrancar and Vasto Lorde, they have literally fused their masks with that of their heart, initiating a new step in Hollow evolution.The tribes of Sincara govern most of the lifeforms within Las Salvadores.
