Aslan's Country

Aslan's Country is an amazing place. It's like heaven in our world. It is also where Caspian X went when he died, and also where Reepicheep went when he was on the Dawn Treader to save the Seven Lords of Caspian IX.



A Deeper Country
When the Seven Friends of Narnia and all of the Narnian creatures loyal to Aslan found themselves in Aslan's country after the Lion ended the Narnian world, they discovered that their surroundings were like the Narnia they had just left, except "the new one was a deeper country: every rock and flower and blade of grass looked as if it meant more." The colours were more colourful, the mountains looked larger, and everything was "more real." The fruit of that country was so wonderful that it would make any fruit in our world (or any other) taste like medicine. Professor Digory Kirke described the old Narnia as an imperfect shadow or copy of the Narnia in Aslan's country, and likened the difference to Plato's cave analogy, saying "It's all in Plato, all in Plato: bless me, what do they teach them at these schools!"

Entrances from the Narnian World
Aslan's Country appeared as a physical mountain range beyond the Eastern Edge of the Narnian world. When Aslan called Eustace and Jill from Experiment House, they found themselves on tall mountains--more than twenty times the height of any mountains on Earth--at the eastern edge on the Narnian world. These mountains were inhabited by birds who made noises more musical than birds usually do and covered by beautiful trees. Despite their tremendous height, they were not covered by snow. Caspian X saw the same mountains on his voyage to the end of the world. Additionally, just below the mountains and at the eastern edge of the sea, there was a large wave, endlessly fixed in one position like the top of a waterfall. Reepicheep sailed over the wave and reached Aslan's Country. Additionally, dead Narnians loyal to Aslan were transported to Narnia after their deaths. This was the case with Caspian X and everyone who fought and died on Tirian's side in the Battle at Stable Hill.

Stable Hill
The stable at Stable Hill was used by Aslan as a special entrance into His Country just before he ended the Narnian World. His magic was apparent in that the stable looked from the outside to be the size of any ordinary stable, but its inside seemed to contain all of Aslan's country, which is infinitely large. At the end of the world, all Narnian beasts who were then alive came up to Aslan at the door of the stable and looked in his eyes. Those who rejoiced at seeing him went into the stable on his right. Those who hated him went off into the darkness behind the stable.
