Kharbranth, City of Bells, is an independent city-state featured in the novel, The Way of Kings. It is ruled by King Taravangian.

This article is a stub. Please help The Coppermind by expanding it.

Kharbranth is extremely culturally diverse, with people from all over the world both visiting and residing there. The primary reason for its significance is the Palanaeum, the largest known library on Roshar. Kharbranth is also known for the quality of its hospitals, and people come from all over the world to train there in medicine.

In The Way of Kings, all of Shallan's viewpoints take place in Kharbranth. Jasnah is using the Palanaeum in her research of the Voidbringers. In his flashback chapters, Kaladin also mentions that his father wants to send him to Kharbranth to train as a surgeon.
