The fictional world of Neverland
Neverland is a fictional realm where Peter Pan and his friends live, a place where children never grow up and where fairies, pirates, and other magical creatures exist. It is a land of adventure and danger, with forests, waterfalls, mountains, and other fantastical landscapes.

In the magical world of Neverland, Peter and the other children are able to escape from the constraints of the adult world and express their innermost desires and fantasies. This theme is also reflected in the role of Wendy, who is the storyteller and nurturer for the Lost Boys, and whose imagination helps to sustain their world and their identity.

Peter and the other children in Neverland never grow old, and their youthful exuberance and sense of wonder are celebrated throughout the story. The desire to remain young is a powerful motivation for Peter and his friends, and it is contrasted with the adult world's obsession with practicality, routine, and responsibility.
