One of the nicest features of the Lord of the Rings Online is the inclusion of tons of features that have nothing to do with questing, leveling, grinding or other such things. You can get drunk and party your pants off, or farm pipeweed which has no other use than to smoke it and blow cool smoke rings, you can lounge around in inns and taverns playing music... or you can go exploring for the weird little spots that have nothing to do with anything.
