Elysium (also known as Ēlýsion pedíon, Elysium Fields, and/or Elysian Fields) is a paradise for the dead located in the Underworld.

Initially separate from the Underworld, Elysium was reserved for good mortals, heroes, and demigods who had died a hero's death and lived a good life. Chosen by the gods, the souls of mortals and demigods who have been good, righteous, and/or heroic, would remain after death to live a blessed and happy eternal death, and indulge whatever employment they had enjoyed in life.

Elysium is a valley surrounded by walls, a gated community from which one could hear laughter and smell barbecue cooking. It has neighborhoods of beautiful houses from every time period in history, such as Roman villas, medieval castles, and Victorian mansions. It also has flowers of silver and gold blooming on the lawns, and grass rippling in rainbow colors.

Compared to the Fields of Asphodel and even the Fields of Punishment, Elysium was one of the fewer realms in the Underworld, which also contains the Isles of the Blest.
