* The Valley from ''{{Bone}}''.

* In MysteryScienceTheater3000, when riffing the movie {{Morozko}}.

* ''[[Manga/{{MAR}} Marchen Awakens Romance]],'' Marchen even means 'fairy tale' in German.
* ''TheTwelveKingdoms.''
* Every single homeland of the {{Mentor Mascot}}s in the ''PrettyCure'' series.
* ''Manga/FushigiYuugi'' is set in the Universe of the Four Gods.

* Gaea from ''Anime/TheVisionOfEscaflowne'' is an artificial planet created by the natives of Atlantis to escape the Flood... unless it was AllADream, [[OnceAnEpisode or maybe a vision]].
* The Witch World from ''Anime/OjamajoDoremi.''

* Fandavale in ''Anime/FairyMusketeers''.
* The world of ''LightNovel/TheFamiliarOfZero'' is an unusual example; it is its own independent world (albeit one with magic), but technically qualifies as this because they keep stealing our stuff (its easier than inventing stuff themselves), and they occasionally get some of our people too, who are TrappedInAnotherWorld as a result.

* Fandavale in ''OtogiJuushiAkazukin''

* The character of Erro from ''Interdimensional Transfer Student Erro'' comes from one of these realms - AnotherDimension, of course, which is populated by a single species of strange, talking mascot animals (of which he is one).
* Aylia, the titular character of ''AMagicalRoommate,'' comes from Umbria. This is a bit of a subversion, however; Umbria is just a country in a much larger world, and the only off-worlders that affect politics are understandably those who married royalty. The jury is out on [[MedievalStasis expanding technology,]] though.

* ''BirdBoy:'' [[http://bird-boy.com/volume-1-page-13 When Bali chases the spear into the forest, it turns from winter to summer]].

* ''{{Zoophobia}}'''s magical World is actually situated in the centre of a colossal forest, isolated from the rest of the "real world".

* In DevonMonk's ''[[Literature/AgeOfSteam Dead Iron]]'', [=LeFel=] wants to get back to the land he was exiled from, where he will be immortal.

Constrast this with ConstructedWorld which does not have visitors or a gateway from our world.

* ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' series has Hyrule itself. Additionally, the Sacred Realm, the resting place of the Triforce, is somewhere in Hyrule.
** The Sacred Realm a particularly dark flavor of magical in ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaALinkToThePast''.

* Gaea from ''[[Anime/VisionOfEscaflowne The Vision of Escaflowne]]''

* Cephiro from ''MagicKnightRayearth''

* The parallel world Creturia from ''DimensionHeroes.''

** The Sacred Realm isn't so magical in ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaALinkToThePast''.

The KingInTheMountain may be sleeping here. (Not necessarily under a mountain.)

* Gensokyo from the ''VideoGame/{{Touhou}}'' games, complete with visitors and occasional artifacts from the "real" world.

* ''ElHazardTheMagnificentWorld.''

* The Witch World from ''MagicalDoremi.''

* Just about everyplace in ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' that isn't Earth, but particularly Prospit and Derse.

** ''NouvelleExperience'' was their first example of this, and it crosses over with a {{Cloudcuckooland}}; fools, angels, devils, and magic-wielding rulers dwell within it.
** ''Mystere'''s world is inhabited by (among other things) clever birds, playful lizards, and sentinent viruses, and the viewpoint characters are two babies played by adult actors. The newcomer to this world, rather than an everyman protagonist figure, is a troublemaker who constantly needles the emcee who's trying to keep everything in order.
** ''Quidam'' goes DownTheRabbitHole to a melancholy magical land where the heroine learns about the universiality of loneliness.

** ''Kooza'' transports an Innocent into a kingdom where, if one isn't careful, a troupe of singing and dancing skeletons can be conjured up at a moment's notice.
