In the books of J.R.R. Tolkien, Valinor lies in the central regions of the continent of Aman, in the utmost West of Arda. After the rebellion of Numenor, and the world was made round, Valinor was removed from the circles of the world, and only the Elves remaining in Middle-earth could reach it, following the Straight Road. See The Encyclopedia of Arda http://www.glyphweb.com/arda/default.asp for more data.

What is tengwar?

Where do the people go when they leave Middle Earth?
They go to the original land of the Elves. Where no one can die. It is like "Heaven on Earth" in some ways. In LOTR, the chapter when they leave is called "Grey Haven" so that might be what it's called. The Gray Haven is a port in Middle Earth that the boats that take the Elves away leave from. The place they go to is called Valinor, and by the end of the War of the Ring it is no longer physically located on Earth at all. It is also not the 'original land' of the Elves, since they are from Middle Earth. However the majority of the Elves travelled to Valinor early in their history, and the ones we meet in the books are the ones that came back.

Where did the elves go after departing on the ship?
The Elves leaving Middle-earth by ship forever go to the lands of Aman, to the west beyond the Great Sea. There are the lands Valinor and Eldamar, and the isle Tol Eressea. It is the home of the Valar (spirits comparable to minor gods or angels), who a very long time ago invited the Elves to come and live in their lands, and the Elves have been following that call ever since.
Which sea according to the Lord of the Rings map of Middle-earth lies in the west?
The most western sea is the Sundering Seas (aka Belegaer or The Great Sea) that separated Middle-earth from Valinor.
Is Valinor in The Lord of the Rings like a heaven?
Valinor is the abode of the Valar. It lies in the Blessed Realm of the continent of Aman. The Elves live on an island called Tol Erresea. The island is in sight of the land of the Valar. Men are not allowed to go there. Bilbo and Frodo are allowed to go there as a gift because they were ringbearers for an extended period of time, and this would keep them living in comfort for the rest of their days. Gimli is also allowed to enter Aman, the first and the last Dwarf to do this, because the Lady Galadriel, the most powerful of the Noldor in Middle-earth, who had a lot of influence even in Valinor, accounted for him. In some ways it is like a heaven in that gods live there and everyone lives forever, but it was formerly part of the world until it got shifted into a different dimension, which is not usually said of heaven.
