I'm posting a couple of memorial parks inspired by the sprawling cemeteries where I live.  I have a morbid fascination with death. lol

Anyway,

The first park is Cypress View Memorial Park in the city of Arapahoe Valley.  Owned and operated by Heavenly Hills, an InGen Company.  International Genetics Corporation.  This is a large full-service memorial park and the newest in the region. It  features grassy lawns, nature, flowers, walks, artwork, and fountains.  Two large mausoleums modeled after National Monuments, a unique gothic bell tower with a bronze statue of Joan of Arc.  A glass and steel columbarium that is both functional and artistic. Three houses of worship complete the park. To the north of the entrance is the park mortuary and offices.  To the south of the bell tower is the flower shop. Both the flower shop and mortuary are original colonial-era buildings moved to the park. Maintenance yard is located just off-property to the north.

The second park is Sunset Vista Memorial Park in the city of Arapahoe Valley.  Owned and operated by Heavenly Hills, an InGen Company.  International Genetics Corporation.  This is a full-service memorial park and the largest in the region. It was originally a small cemetery that was incorporated when Heavenly Hills bought the land.  The original gate, dome mausoleum and small mission church are still present.  As well as original interments. The park features grassy lawns, nature, flowers, walks, artwork, and fountains.  Three unique houses of worship complete the park. To the east of the entrance is the park mortuary and offices.  Originally a historic tudor-style mansion purchased and moved to the property during it's first expansion. It currently operates as the mortuary and flower shop. The park offices are located just behind the mortuary. A unique feature of this park is the Garden Columbarium.  Designed in the style of early century greenhouse gardens, it offers inurnments in a serene setting surrounded by lush vegetation and flowers. Maintenance yard and regional offices are located just off-property to the north.

Another installment of my Memorial Park series:

The latest addition is Whispering Glades Memorial Park.  Located in the city of Arapahoe Valley.  This sprawling cemetery is managed by Heavenly Hills.  A subsidiary of InGen (International Genetics Corporation).  The undeveloped property was purchased by InGen from rival company BioSyn.  It was then turned over to Heavenly Hills to develop into a Memorial Park.  This is currently the largest and newest cemetery in the region. It's continually growing with plenty of land to spare as needed.  Whispering Glades prides itself on being a haven of rest, peace, and reflection. Treating it's residents and visitors with the utmost respect and care. Soft rolling hills, green lawns, beautiful trees, water features and impressive sculpture enhance the serene setting.

This is a full-service cemetery with on-site mortuary, crematorium, flower shop, various event venues and houses of worship. 

Notable areas include:
the Court of the Redwoods. Featuring semi-private garden interments surrounded by towering Redwood trees. 
The Grand Mausoleum with classical architecture and multiple floors of crypts and niches.
The impressive private mausoleum of InGen CEO Dr. John Hammond.
Gothic bell tower with a bronze statue of Joan of Arc (Formerly at Cypress View Memorial Park)
Reflection Lake with paths and benches for quiet rest and remembrance.

They're DEFINITELY not using the cemeteries as a front for other shady activities.

This is Cementerio de la Feria, located at the limit of Anclaje, Cuerno de Águila and Bahía Herradura. A cemetery on a terraced foothill looks like a weird choice, so it is said that this ravine was formerly used to dump the bodies of those who didn't qualify, erm, religiously for one of the regular cemeteries.

There's also a state fair on top of the hill, which actually gives it its name, so there's that. At least, if the ferris wheel malfunctions, your body won't have to be moved too far.

Wow, some truly beautiful and inspiring parks to behold here.

The City of Guamaní is late to the game, finally getting its central park! Built when the city added its twin railway tracks for a new city center terminal at the heart of the 317,000-strong metropolitan center!

Winter Gardens, Anclaje (a seaside city with a mild Mediterranean climate, so why does it even need an orangerie?)

The Winter Gardens —an orangerie, a palm house and green spaces— between the city zoo and its waterpark

Another picture of the gardens next to the zoo. Note that the gardens are built slightly higher

The rampart actually extends over the zoo terrain and enables guests to see the Polar Bear exhibit from afar

Main entrance and an ice cream parlor. Yeah, winter much.

The Gardens have a panoramic view over the Salto valley and, on clear days, the Planalto palace (top right) can be seen across

amazing!!!! where did u get the magic trees?
here's a small park I just made~

[Lucario Boricua 7,027]

@rose I imagine the so-called magic trees are those colorful jacarandas (the ones in bright yellow-green, pink and the light purplish blue). They would be these!

 

Complemented by these MMP flowers, from the BSC ALN RRP Pasture Flora pack! I use the blue, yellow and pink flowers to simulate the fallen flowers below the trees, making the scene look more natural!

To further progress with this thread, here I have more park updates from the Kingdom of Borike!

 

Starting off with something cozy and urban, the Abacoa Floral Park! A cozy oasis of garden beauty amid the rapidly growing city center, with bonus mass transit access from the city's tram network!

 

 

And for those whose idea of a park is a bit more grand and exciting, we also got the recent inauguration of the Nisibón Lagoon Amusement Park! This one has a nice assortment of rides going from mellow to adrenaline overload options located away from the big city center areas of the eastern side of the Kingdom!

Adding onto the park antics, the town of Sabaneque went with a lower cost design, an open grass area with paths, gazebos and flowering trees to adorn the landscape!

I like this thread. Going to fire up SC4 and play. I have an idea for a park.
