SL Destinations: The Sands of Time

Hello Travelers,

We bring you a post on the mysterious and beautiful sim “The Sands of Time.”

http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Sands%20of%20Time/185/191/22

 

This Beautifully landscaped sim is Home to Majilis Al Jinn.

 

The name of the sim can be translated as: The Congress (or the seat, the meeting place) of Spirits.
The Jinn are mythical beings of great power that exist somewhere between heaven and earth.

 

In western culture they are often thought of as Djinn/Jinni/ Genie, and are often the granters of wishes when found and released. In middle eastern culture, the Jinn are mentioned in the Quran as beings created by Allah, where men were created from clay, the Jinn were created from fire, and just like men, have free will, and the ability to choose to be good or not. The subject of Jinn in Muslim culture is today at least, often taboo, as they are often blamed for causing mischief on earth.

 

Majailis Al Jinn is an island reflecting the enchantment and the wonder from tales like 1001 nights, or even modern stories such as ‘Prince of Persia’. Here Western and Far East cultural influences can be found blended in.

Exploring this island, You will see The recess in the island’s center is sheltering a garden of wonders.

 

There are caves of Mystery under the palace, hidden alcoves to sit and cuddle, and even a sunken ancient temple.

 

When you visit this fabulous sim, Time is of no importance here, Stop and take time to enjoy this haven set on a vast ocean where Mystery & beauty is allowed to flourish.

 

Thank You for visiting this blog, Your support is appreciated. Stay tuned for another sweet find and Take Care.

SL Destinations: Forgotten City

Greetings fellow adventurers,

Today the Wife and I ventured into the AMAZING Forgotten City.

A Steampunk world of Gears and Steam, Industry and Automatons,

Air Ships and Rockets set over many levels.

Steampunk is a sub-genre of science fiction that typically features steam-powered machinery, especially in settings inspired by The Industrialized Western Civilization during the 19th century’s British Victorian era or America’s “Wild West”.

From the starting point in the lower City you will find information and a teleporter to the many other activities and points of interest.

We started our visit by taking in the sights by Hot Air balloon, and then by Boat through the winding canals.

Brass Autobot Citizens can be found occupied, or walking the streets tending to the workings of the city, along with many clockwork cats.

On the Toy Factory’s platform you are able to buy many of the vehicles, buildings and objects found around the city.

Here you can sit and enjoy some interactive games.

There is a racing track with cars free to rez, or if you fancy your chances fighting extraterrestrials, an Alien hunt game.

Still feeling in the mood for activities? Why not take a chair lift to the mountain summit and compete with friends in the long distance ski jump.

 

After that you can dance away into the small hours in the ballroom or relax at the sausage stand.

Many of the buildings are available to rent so if you enjoy your visit as much as we did you may want to make your home there too!

 

‘Til the next time 🙂
