You can see a Stratholme there, too.

-- Once upon a time naxxramas was set there, remember ? =)

Also, it only looks brighter because the lighting and fog are different inside the instance.
There's nothing special about it, it's just instanced EPL.

But it is still strange why Blizz didn't move it to Dragonblight. They moved to Dragonblight only the entrance but the dungeon is still in EP (as you can see on that screenshot)...
Also, I edited the name of the thread (removed "From the Past")

/quote Naralesca
Since the Instance itself is still naxxramas and the 'old' naxxtramas is gone.. well the old simply became the new and the simplest way to hide it from the player eyes is to change the entrance area so they cannot look through the floor/windows there any more. no need to change the geometry under the actual playable portion of the instance. True for naxx and true for all the other instances having world geometry in them (which is some kind of a help for the devs so they can 'narrow' the potential extends of an instance without becoming completely irrational like you enter it and the instance appears to be somewehere where it surely cannot be from an outside view.)

No one is supposed to see it anyway. |
