As awesome as ever hotdogs. Love it!

[Benedict 3,119]

Once again, an amazing update to an amazing CJ. You have a knack for using SC4 to capture the feeling of each city you have showcased - a remarkable achievement.

Nice update, and thnx for the tip about the Night lighting. It actually works now....

[___idiotbox 0]

Yay!! Thank you soo much for doing DC! It's amazing! First off I want to say congrats on taking the most amazing night shot of the Washington monument! Also love the capitol building and the construction behind it. And the National Archives building is beautiful in real life, and you captured it well. That shot is only missing DC Traffic lol.

This update is so good, I'm glad you did it. You know I've been looking forward to DC

Keep it up, have fun in Brazil and I'm excited to see what city is next.

Fantastic update, I really like the road layout around the memorial. Very realistic

Great work on this CJ. I really like what you've done with the cities so far. I know you are not running out of cities to do, I would really like to see Chicago, Philadelphia, Amsterdam, Sydney, and Rome. Thanks for the good work!

[MadTV_Freak 0]

well, i live in DC, so i was gonna be a tough critic when u showed the Washington DC city... and here it is.... LOOKS MAGNIFICENT... only thing that i dont think is realistic is the circle around Lincoln Memorial, and Constituion Ave (way bigger blvd and way more traffic, WAY MORE TRAFFIC, lmao)... but hey, what can u do.. its only sc4, and for your effort and creativity, i give it a 10!

Keep up the EXCELLENT work!

One word: beutifulyspendidlyamazingly

[IDS2 3,346]

Oh, have fun in Rio! Take a picture of the statue for us!

[koekie01 3]

[RHMgerards 7]

amazing update this is! i think washington is an amazing city, and you have done a great job recreating it. by the way, have fun in rio de janeiro!! hope the weather there is better then here in holland! there's nothing but rain here.

[Voulpiotis 4]

All pictures look so real! Thanks for telling me, I just now realised that there was a new NAM release!

[Yoman3 5]

Have fun and be sure to visit the favilias

[mencc1701 0]

Fantastic stuff as always! I do kind of wish you'd shown some of the areas of Washington where the veneer isn't on - there are a lot of lower rent areas not far from the Mall, and would have made for an interesting contrast. Regardless, it's very well-done.

[JFman00 1]

My only complaints: where's the DC traffic? and also cars are no longer allowed to drive on Pennsylvania in front of the White House. Also It would've been cool to have a zoomed out shot that includes DCA. Hilarious that such a gigantic terrorist threat is in the middle of our nation's capital.

[SimRabbit 48]

Nice recreations I really like Dubai!! But my only complain is, you never show the complete city. Besides that, you are awsome!!!

[simoplis_mayor 3]

really great can't wait for more

[crazyyaya 4]

Amazing work, cant wiat for more.

note to administrators: i thought the 600 x 800 pictures would be okay because they it's basically 800 x 600 backwards, if not, please let me know

I have just returned from a two week long trip to my hometown of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I had an absolutely fantastic time, with loads of funny stories to tell. I photoshopped a batch of about 50 pictures for you all, every single one taken by me. I thought I'd post these set of pictures in WORLD aswell!

First, Here is a picture of the quiet street of my family's home:

...and the large avenue located nearby with an excellent view of Christ the Redemmer:

Christ the Redemmer, seen from my grandmother's balcony.

..and also a shot of Lagoa from my grandmother's balcony.

A few pictures from my triplet 3 year old cousins apartment:

The horse track.

Lagoa.

Christ the Redemmer, You can see him from almost anywhere in the city!

Driving/Walking/Shopping around Ipanema:

Don't remember exactly what the name of the mountains in the left are called, The one in the right is Pedra da Gavea.

Rio de Janeiro has the largest trees in the streets I've ever seen!

A cold and windy walk along the beach...I bent down to take this picture, I'm not that short

Busy life in Ipanema.

Random Beach-front apartments.

H. Stern Building, hoping to BAT this one.

My cousin and her boyfriend decided it would be fun to hike up Pedra Bonita, so that's exactly what we did ;D

Driving to the mountains...

Sometimes its hard to beleive you're in the middle of a busy city of millions...

I was thinking of going paragliding on my trip, but when I saw how high it was, I changed my mind

The face of Pedra da Gavea.

Beautiful view of Rio de Janeiro.

Barra Beach.

Barra da Tijuca.

When my aunt saw how interested I was in building cities, [she and my whole family are architects], she took me to Centro for the day:

Camara Municipal in Cinelandia.

Theatro Municipal.

Some modern offices.

The Biblioteca Nacional [National Library]

The tallest clusters of skyscrapers in Rio.

Busy Traffic behind Candelaria Church.

Hideous Petrobas building with the even more hideous Church of St. Sebastian in the background.

Candelaria Church.

A stroll along the touristy Copacabana Beach:

Copacabana Beach area with the Pao de Acucar in the background.

Avenida Atlantica.

Copacabana Palace from the beach.

...and the Copacabana Palace up front, one of the most luxurious hotels in Latin America.

Pao de Acucar Trip:

Pao de Acucar from the cable car.

A strange old man once said 'I came up here to kill myself, but when I saw this view, I changed my mind'.

Great overview of the bay and the center of the city.

Copacabana Beach.

A picture of Rio I took from the airplane transfer ride to Sao Paulo, Shame it wasn't in the day.

Well, That's about it! Hope you enjoyed them! I'll be starting on a new update very soon, and I'll answer all comments there

[WackoJak 0]

YAY first comment! Rio is a Beautiful city, I hope to go there some time in my life. I bet that Rio is the next update?

[Mikeaut1 261]

WOWOWWWW!!! Such a beautiful place. My uncle is always going down there on vacation and stuff, and now I know why!! It's such a nice city! And yes, I bet your next city will be Rio.

That Christ the Redeemer statue on the mountain is really cool!!!

[FissileBread 0]

Wow I wanna go there now lol, it looks like a very nice place.

[Explodingsims 3]

Wow, Nice pictures, and one question, where did you get the buildings in Washington DC, like the National Archives? I know some of them are Maxis Landmarks.

[Zarp 0]

"Brazil, my brazilian Brazil!"

Stunning pictures, hope you've enjoyed the most all of our features! Also hope you haven't met the rotten apples of our marvelous city.

Shall I borrow these pictures to show our Simtropolitams the favelas?

Highlited in red, cantagalo, a favela in Rio.

Meet Rocinha, Rio's biggest favela(Over 80.000 People)

[Ace_F15 16]

I've been to Rio too! I love the scenery! Another place I've been that had great architecture is Tel Aviv in Israel. I loved it. The beaches are great. Anyway, I love the pictures!

[Schulmanator 5,787]

There are some great potential BATs in those pix. Rio looks awesome!
