Hello fellow Simtropians

or is it Simtropolitans?

...

Simtropolites?

...

Llamas?

 

Welcome back!

 

To kick off this 3rd season of Ionica I present to you a make-over/do-over of a Zone called Qui Chuji, named after a Daoist priest whose formal title was Perfect Master Qiu of Eternal Spring.

Qui Chuji is the founder of the Dragon Gate sect of Taoism and is the most famous of the Seven True Daoists of the North. This Zone is the first of a series of Zones that bear the names of these seven masters.

Qiu Chuji is directly across the Amethyst river from Archon, and much like Archon it is an ideal place for people who work in the CBD (Avalon) but want to live at a slightly slower pace. In fact it is said that Qiu Chuji is much more relaxed than Archon since CEOs generally don't wine and dine prospective clients there and Yacht Parties are prohibited.

The waterfront is lined with luxurious condos that provide spectacular views for its tenants. Most famous of which are the Cobb Europa and Cobb Riviera by the legendary architect Cobb 32118. Both are designed in the style  of the French and Italian Riviera and have multi-level roof-top gardens.

The canal that starts here stretches horizontally across six small Zones, ending in Peach Blossom Bay, and vertically across three medium size Zones, ending in Acropolis.

This Zone also features the Ionican branch of Macy's and the Cathedral of our Lady.

Enjoy.

Love the night pictures and the light show on that Cathedral.. very pretty!

 

Great work on the tram lines too, first thing I noticed is the public transport.. very important for such a large city.

Great new start!! :thumb:

Only 2 flaws: no captions :???: and too-close intersections (the marina ramps and the bridge head near the building with glass vaulted dome).
