# What is Land?
Lands are blockchain-backed virtual tokens (NFTs) representing physical spaces in the Open World of The Parallel. They allow users to own a portion of the Metaverse and thus be able to build and create assets, games, or entertainment activities. The ownership of Land is highly featured and protected in The Parallel Ecosystem.
*(Map Updating)*
The Parallel plans to release a highly attractive plan for land sale that ensures Land is sold in manageable quantities/phases. Purchase availability will be prioritized based on a merit system awarded via contribution to The Parallel Ecosystem.
