Uttarakuru is located in the north, and is shaped like a square. It has a perimter of 8,000 yojanas, being 2,000 yojanas on each side. This continents tree is called a kalpavrksa (Pali: kapparukkha) or kalpa tree, because it lasts for the entire kalpa. The inhabitants of Uttarakuru are said to be extraordinarily wealthy. They do not need to labor for a living, as their Food grows by itself, and they have no private property. They have cities built in the air.
