This. It was in a poor place of being just before good pre-raid dungeons that dropped pre-raid BiS gear like Scholo and Strat, and most people just didn't bother with it because they were soon on to running those places over and over in like 3-4 levels. It would have gotten a lot more play if it had a higher level boss in it somewhere that dropped items similar in power to BRD/Scholo/Strat items.

Right ST had the unfortunate design of being a stepping stone dungeon that was too far out of the way and too long with minimal quests. Still a great dungeon
Sunken Temple is one of the best dungeons in the game imo, I highly recommend going out of your way to check it out and do the quests associated with it. It's one of my favs, and the remote location just adds to how cool it is!

Sunken Temple is also one of my favorites.
Temple of Atal'Hakkar. Lot of Gurubashi lore leading up to Zul'Gurub. It was meant for level 50 to 56, but I remember doing it between 46-52. The clusters of mobs required a lot of CC, but you walked out after 2 hours with a bunch of xp and gear. Most gear had a level 49 requirement. There was also some nature resist gear in there that you'd get for AQ.
Recall once duo'ing the instance with my mage and a warlock at level 60. That was fun.

Temple of Atal'Hakkar
The Temple of Atal'Hakkar (also known as the Sunken Temple) is a shrine to the nefarious Blood God Hakkar the Soulflayer that was erected by the Atal'ai trolls led by their master Jammal'an the Prophet. Believing that this was the intended site for Hakkar's reentry into Azeroth, the great Dragon...

Exactly what drove me to it. Mage on pvp server running mostly solo, you tend to hide in the extended areas. Swamp of Sorrows, Feralas (or maybe Felwood, Feralas became mad popular after Dire Maul), Hinterlands, Winterspring. Don't think I saw anyone in Swamp of Sorrows that wasn't in my party going to ST. I leveled up on mobs alone from 58 to 60 in Winterspring and never saw another person in that time.
Strangely, I don't even remember leveling up my druid in vanilla. It happened 10x faster. PVE server, knew the routes, large quest hubs. I guess I remember collecting papers in STV? That's a lame memory...

Classic beta is effectively a sand box thanks to the level cap. This video is a great example of players creating their own content to fill the void.
Star Wars Galaxies was the same, the drama and the player made narratives in that game were unreal

Hinterlands is one of my favorite zones. That place with the outdoor type troll dungeon was badass. I also liked Winterspring a lot. I never liked Felwood or Un'Goro.

Maraudon and ST got tons of play time on my chars in vanilla as a lot of people wanted to see the hakkar story line with the egg, emerald dream dragons etc.
Now Uldaman, that was BFE and a classic fustercluck. Starting mobs in the mid 30's, and final boss low 50's? Miss miss miss miss miss hit miss miss miss. That was way worse than the tubgirl princess in Maraudon was.
