The settings of these stories are generally unspecified places in some fictional kingdom or another. Some of the stories, however, are set in places that really exist. For instance, one story is set in East India. In addition to these real and imagined settings, there are also setting included that could not be reached without non-human means. These places include spots like the sun, moon, and stars. Sometimes the characters in these stories travel to places that can't be reached by living humans at all. These settings include heaven and hell. The fictional and unrealistic characteristics of the settings for these fairy tales mimic the unrealistic content of the stories themselves. Palaces, castles, poor men's huts, locked towers, and enchanted forests all make up the backdrops for these fairy tales.
