In J.R.R. Tolkien's fictional universe of Middle-earth, two places are known as Lórien, both exceptionally beautiful. The first is the gardens of the Vala Irmo in Valinor (Irmo is sometimes called Lórien as well).
The second is a forest in Middle-earth proper, first settled by Nandorin Elves, but later enriched by Ñoldor and Sindar under CelebornTolkien work The Lord of the Rings Celeborn (pronounced with a hard C as in Cake is the Elven husband of Galadriel. He was known in the Third Age as the Lord of Lorien. He was the father of Celebrian, the wife of Elrond, making him the grandfather of Arwe and GaladrielIn the fiction of J. Tolkien, Galadriel the Lady of the Woods was an Elf-queen of Middle-earth, ruler of the land of Lothlorien along with her husband Celeborn. She was originally named Artanis ("noble woman") and Nerwen ("man-maiden", referring of her he.

The Elves of Eregion made nineteen of the Rings of Power (and many other lesser rings) with knowledge obtained from Sau, enriched the land and made it a magic forest. Other names given to the land include the RohirricMiddle-earth languages In the fictional world of Middle-earth by J. Tolkien, Rohirric is the language of the Rohirrim of Rohan. In the novels it is always represented by Anglo-Saxon, and only few actual Rohirric words are given by Tolkien: kud-dukan an ol (Actually Old English name Dwimordene (from dwimor (phantom), an allusion to the perceived magic of the Elves), and the Westron (actually modern English) name The Golden Wood.
Lórien, like Mirkwood, was settled by Silvan Elves of Nandorin descent some time during the First Age. By the Second Age, Sindarin Elves had enriched its population, and they were ruled by a Sindarin lord, Amdîr. The last Sindarin Lord of Lórien was Amroth, who went to Edhellond near Dol Amroth in south Gondor in search of Nimrodel, and was lost at sea. After his time the Silvan Elves of Lórien long had no lords, until Galadriel and her husband Celeborn travelled there from Eregion (Hollin).
After Galadriel left for Valinor, the Elves of Lórien were ruled by their lord Celeborn alone, and the realm was expanded with a part of southern Mirkwood, but it appears to have slowly been depopulated during the Fourth Age until all Elves were gone. After Celeborn eventually left for Valinor it is not clear who ruled in Lórien, and the golden mallorn trees, which were introduced by Galadriel, grew there no longer.
Lórien was the only place in where the golden mallorn grew in Middle-earth, brought there from Valinor by Lady Galadriel. (Later, a mallorn was planted in the Shire, a gift of Galadriel to Sam Gamgee.) Like Thranduil's Kingdom of northern Mirkwood, it was a wooded homeland of the Silvan Elves. It was located on the River Celebrant, southeast of Khazad-dûm.
