-Room of Spirit & Time-

There are actually 2 rooms of spirit and time. They are both rooms on Kami's lookout high above the Earth. The one that exists only in the anime show contains a gigantic pendulum that swings over a circle on the floor that is carved with ancient runes. When someone stands in the circle, his or her spirit is transported to another location and into the past. They create "spirit bodies" so that if they are killed in the past, their true bodies are not injured. Goku, Yamcha, Krillin, Choutzu, and Tien all used the room to train at some point. This room was destroyed when Buu destroyed Kami's lookout.

The room of spirit and time that exists in both the book series and the show is significantly different. When you enter, you find yourself standing in the doorway of a small building surrounded by hourglasses. You are on a small planet about 3 times larger than King Kai's planet. You are probably thinking "Uh, so?" The point is that inside the room time flows differently. During one day in the outside world, one year passes for those inside. Strangely enough, no one seems to age as a result of being inside. Anyway, this allows the Z fighters to train in much less time than would normally be required. This room was destroyed when Piccolo destroyed the building that is used to exit. He was trying to trap Buu inside along with Gotenks and himself, but everyone escaped when they found out that a really strong burst of energy could blow a hole through to the outside world.
