These maps do not connect to the surface world via walking paths.
The map’s navigation is governed by the "Lamp" system. Unlike Dark Souls , where bonfires are ubiquitous rest points, Lamps in Bloodborne are sparser and allow no direct teleportation between them; the player must always return to the Hunter’s Dream to travel. map of bloodborne
