    Hi guys !
    It's time for a new update for this city. First, i would like to thanks you a lot for your comments ! I'm really happy to see that a city can remain a little bit impressive with this old game that Cities XL is (more that 10 years since the first version !).

    Let's begin with a new cinematic. I hope you will enjoy it !



    The Jdom

    A Jdom is the name given to the religious building of the local worship (which is called "The Rykjdom". The building, located at the top of a district build on the cliff-side, was built in 1231 and was achieved in 1611. It’s the sacred site of the Rykjdom. That’s why you can view many buildings around the main building. Like many place in this district, there are also caverns dug out of the rock which are used by clerics for store some goods or offerings of the faithful.

    The Sinaissay hotel was built during the XIXth century. It’s the headquarters of the Sinaissay Merchant Confederation, one of the major economic player in mandelsian economy. The building includes a track for dirigibles, a small port and big caverns which are used to store high value merchandises.

    The Panini Hotel

    The Panini hotel is a private mansion formerly owned by the Panini family. The Panini family is well known in Mandelsy for having drawn some big map of the country. Nowadays, some parts of these maps are exposed in big exhibition rooms dug out of the cliff. Other parts of the building are now empty and wait for new use.

    Ports and the aqueducts

    As you see in the previous update, there are many ports built in the Larçay Bay. Some of them are connected to an aqueduct network. These are not used to transport water (despite they contain water). They are used to transport merchandises from the top of the cliff to the port or, in the case of the city center district or in the Jdom district, to transport merchandises from the port to different buildings.
