In this Expansion Pack  we will see first time real world inspired landmarks. What will our Sims visit in Egypt, France and China?

Lyndsay Pearson:
In Egypt: pyramids, sphinx, abu simbel temple, temple of queen hapshepsut
France: arc the triumph, Eifel tower – these are the landmarks you will see on the outskirts of the playable town.
In China are locations inspired by the terracotta army, temple of heaven, forbidden city, the great wall.  They do not look exactly like the real world landmarks, but are “inspired” by real-world landmarks.
