Seireitei (Darkrai and Skitty)

Seireitei (瀞霊廷, Court of Pure Souls) is located off the coast of the Rukongai, being an island in the middle of the large bay.

Overview
The newly built Seireitei houses many structures. Much bigger on the ground than it looks from a bird's eye view, the new Seireitei has abandoned the use of Gates and Gate Guardians, an the only way to enter is by boat. The barracks themselves are all housed rather close to each other, with the 1st Division Barrack being an exceedingly large tower that overlooks everything.

The entire island is crafted out of Kaizō Sekkiseki (改造 殺気石, Modified spirit reducing stone), a unique version of Sekkiseki created by Kaito. Like Sekkiseki before it, it negates all Reiryoku, and full spherical barrier around the city, stopping anything spiritual from breaching it, however, Kaito altered it so that it won;t have negative effects on souls exposed to it after prolonged periods of time, making it possible for Captains to fight, even on the island.

Information about the Seireitei is confidential.The current Seireitei has destroyed both the Senzaikyū and Sōkyoku, under the order's of Kazuma Nagareboshi himself. Those permitted to live in the tranquility of the Seireitei are Shinigami and the few families of the nobility. Shinigami live in the Division barracks, while high-ranking officers commute from their own homes

The majority of the residents of Seireitei, nobility and Shinigami alike, do not interact with the citizens of Rukongai. However, residents of Rukongai, like Renji and Rukia, are allowed to apply for the Shinō Academy, which is often the only escape from the poorest conditions of Rukongai.
