The boss arena is located at the opposite corner from the initial spawn and consists of a small square arena with four pillars located around the arena.
Vaal Temple contains 10 strongbox versions of Vaal Vessels, with each spawning 3 packs of monsters as well as a Vaal side area Boss. These Vaal Vessels have additional drops themed around corruption, including Vaal skill gems, corrupted jewels, double corruptedUniques, corrupted maps, Vaal OrbVaal OrbStack Size: 20Corrupts an item, modifying it unpredictablyRight click this item then left click an item to corrupt it.

However, there are currently no known ways to affect the number of Vaal Vessels generated:
Any modifiers to the strongbox count will not affect the number of Vessels.
Any Increased effect of Explicit Modifiers on your Maps stats from the Atlas passive tree do not affect the total number of Vaal Vessels generated as of game version 3.24, since the modifier for Vessels on the map is an implicit one.
As the Vaal Vessel modifier on the map basetype is an implicit modifier, it is retained when the map is randomly rerolled using the Twist of FateAtlas keystone[1]. This can be used to roll the map into layouts with better divination cards while still retaining the benefits of the strongboxes.

Original
There is a vendor recipe that convert legacy map to current map series. So there is a chance that the map is in the current map series (Necropolis), but missing the implicit Area contains 10 additional guarded Vaal Vessels.
Unique versions
There are currently no unique items for this base item type.
The Beastcraft obtained from Einhar's MemoryEinhar's MemoryUnmodifiableRight-click on this, then left click on a completed Map on your Atlas to apply this Memory. of Harvest Beasts that created a Vaal Temple Map now creates a Synthesis Unique Map.
Vaal Temple is no longer on the Atlas, and is now obtained from corrupting tier 16 Maps.
The "Area contains 10 additional guarded Vaal Vessels" implicit modifier on Vaal Temple forces the map to generate with 10 Vaal Vessels. Each of these acts as a Strongbox (spawning 3 packs of monsters as well as a Vaal Side Area Boss). These Vaal Vessels have additional drops themed around corruption. This change will only be present on Vaal Temple Maps found after 3.17.0's release.
The entire Atlas has been reworked. Many map names have changed, as have their balance, tier and position on the Atlas. Many maps have also had their boss fights swapped or completely reworked.
The rules used to generate monsters in endgame maps have been significantly reworked and rebalanced around the rate at which we expect players to reliably clear out the map. In general, narrow, linear maps will contain fewer total monsters than maps with complex layouts. We will be closely monitoring and adjusting the balance of this change and expect to make further changes and improvements over time.
