One place that always hit me the most whenever I read it is when Sam and Frodo are at the Cross-Roads before they get to the stairs of Cirith Ungol. The way that Tolkien describes it is so wonderful. I always get such a weird feeling, because you feel the pressure of the quest and also the darkness because they are so close to Mordor. And additionally you feel a great feeling of loneness because they are so far away from everything. But once you have gone through all these thoughts of darkness and not very good things. Tolkien then serves you a description that gives you great hope. When he talks about the statue of the fallen king. It is a location that is not talked about very long, but it is one that I always remember as one of my favorites.
