" The hidden valley of Tumladen " (2023)Oil painting by Ivan Grozdanovski

J. R. R. Tolkien's The Fall of Gondolin is one of the stories which formed the basis for a section in his posthumously-published work, The Silmarillion, with a version later appearing in The Book of Lost Tales.
By Tolkien's legendarium ,Tumladen was the hidden valley .
The round valley of Tumladen, within the Encircling Mountains, in the center of which stood the beautiful and proud city of Gondolin, the great Hidden City of the Turgon ( King of Gondolin ) was concealed from friend and foe alike during the First Age .
Some years after the Exile of the Noldor, Turgon was guided by Ulmo to the hidden valley of Tumladen, and there he founded Gondolin. Turgon’s people, who had dwelt in Nevrast, travelled there secretly, becoming the Gondolindrim.

The city remained hidden for almost four hundred years, being the last Elven realm to endure against Morgoth, but it was finally discovered through the treachery of Maeglin and besieged. Turgon was lost in the Fall of the city, but some few escaped the destruction and dwelt as Exiles at the Mouths of Sirion.
