The temple is large and peaceful, has an Air Ball arena, and is also where the "Air Scooter" was first invented by Aang. It also has an Air Temple Sanctuary in which reside numerous statues of past Avatars. It is unknown whether this is unique to the Southern Air Temple. The temple itself primarily served as a training ground for Airbender students.
As a result of being built for and by the monks, several of the temples' doors and mechanisms are operable only through means of airbending. A statue of Monk Gyatso stands at the entrance to the temple. Unlike the other three temples, the Southern Temple's spires are blue, instead of green.
This temple is also reserved only for males.
