enchanted lands
Spellbound fairy territories
Enchanted lands are magical or mystical territories in folklore, fantasy, and imagination—places where ordinary rules don't apply and supernatural forces hold sway.
The phrase evokes fairy tales and adventure stories: The children crossed into the enchanted lands beyond the forest.
Theme parks and tourist destinations sometimes borrow the term for areas meant to feel wondrous or otherworldly.
