Sunagakure no Sato is the Shinobi village of Kaze no Kuni. It is hidden in the endless dunes of it's nation, tucked into a naturally formed stone crater. The colour pallet of this city ensures it is almost impossible to see unless you know what you're looking for, giving it one of the most impressive natural defences of any Shinobi village. It's structures are forged out of clay and limestone bricks, which help regulate the heat of the city as well as allowing even their tallest towers to blend in with the dunes that surround them.

Iwagakure no Sato is the shinobi village of Tsuchi no Kuni. It is hidden deep inside the rocky mountain ranges in the eastern lands of it's nation, a strategic location that provides it both an impressively powerful natural defence and a prime location to monitor their borders. It's structures are very castle like in nature, with many spiralling towers of granite and stone crawling out of the mountains, often connected by bridges or tunnels that snake their way through the mountains from which they hang.

Kumogakure no Sato is the shinobi village of Kaminari no Kuni. It is hidden among the tallest of the frozen glaciers that litter Kaminari no Kuni's wilderness. This village is so high that it is literally hidden inside the very clouds themselves. It's structures are made out of thick layers of stone, and typically use a multi-layered wall design to try to avoid heat loss as much as possible, as the height of the village tends to make it incredibly cold.

Kirigakure no Sato is the shinobi village of Mizu no Kuni. It is not hidden by any form of geography such as mountains, merely by the dense fog that forms naturally in the environment around it. It's structures are surprisingly flashy for a hidden village, with an unusual mixture of large stone and wood spires and grand castles.
