How does Piltover fit into the land?
I mean to say is it at ground level or above? Zaun is under Piltover and so is it fully underground or is it at ground level and Piltover is in the sky?

The landscape of the area is dominated by enormous gaping chasms and towering cliff faces. Piltover is on ground level at the tops of the cliffs and on the edges of the chasms, while Zaun is built at the bottom of the cliffs and deep inside the chasms. Zaun is below ground level, but it's still open to the sky. Most of it is likely below sea level as well.
This picture is a pretty good depiction of how it works: https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/8/84/Zaun_College_of_Techmaturgy.png/revision/latest?cb=20161120052219
The canyons are tightly filled with Zaun buildings, whilst above them bridges lead from one Piltover district to another.
I wonder how do they transport the trade goods from east to west if there is a massive chasm separating north and south Piltover and in that chasim Zaun is located. Where is the port and how do the Sun Gates function?
If I remember correclty,then Piltover does have ports and harbors,which would mean that it is connected to the sea,which would likely make it ground level.
Zaun is also known to have suffered from a bit flood,which was likely because it lies below sea level.
Some people would just suggest going to the Universe site to find out for yourself. Because that is actually miles better than asking others to have essentially done the reading for you...
