Real Places in SL: More Cool Builds!
So a month ago I did three entries about builds in Second Life based after real places, visiting every continent except Antarctica. Surprisingly, no one has built a server based on Antarctica yet. Seems a shame I think it is a great subject for an educational sim.
I did find a mini-island build of Antarctica on a server that from the sky looks like a map of the world. Its called Over the Rainbow and it is a cute little build.
I found this place by accidently discovering a cool little blog http://www.slthingstodo.com/ by Jenn Heinrichs. She has almost daily entries, so I added it to my exclusive Second Life Blogs aggregator page.
She is also blogging about real places in SL, and the list is almost exclusive of mine (she has listed 2 of the ones I listed). Here’s a bunch more I plan to check out:
Costa Rica
Gijon, Spain
Kenroku, Japan
Krakow, Poland
Neuschwanstein Castle, Germany
Antiquity Texas
Frankfurt, Germany
Barcelona, Spain
SL Israel
Why not finish this mini-world tour with a Worlds Fair!
Modeled after the Great Exhibition of 1851, is a brand new build called The Great Exhibition of Second Life. Be greeted by a lifesize T-Rex skeleton, and check out some unique historical themed displays. I’m keeping this place book marked for any future historical period costumes that may creep up, they have a huge collection.
