Sunken City is a location from The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons. This city is located in mid-eastern Holodrum, north of the Woods of Winter, and south of Goron Mountain. Just outside the city limits is the Great Moblin's Keep, where the evil Great Moblin demands a toll from whomever passes by.
A Gale Seed Tree is found here. Dimitri is found here, unless he is met previously. Oddly, Dimitri is the only one of the partners who can enter Sunken City. Ricky refuses to enter the city, as it "smells like medicine," and Moosh panics and leaves Link when he sees all of the water in the city. Syrup the witch can also be found, but her hut is only accessible in the winter.
[edit] Story
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
When General Onox imprisoned Din, the Oracle of Seasons, he ultimately threw the seasons of Holodrum into chaos. Due to the instability of the seasons, the snow on top of Goron Mountain melted and flooded the city, whose name prior to the flood is unknown.
Link passes through here on his quest to obtain the eight Essences of Nature and defeat General Onox. In a cave, he meets the Master Diver and becomes his apprentice. After succesfully completing his test, Link is given the Zora's Flippers, allowing him to dive through an underwater cave to the foot of the nearby mountain.
Spoiler warning: Spoilers end here.
