Chienoshima (Island of Wisdom) is a region set in the time of the Emperor Go-Suzaku (, Go-Suzaku-tennō, December 14, 1009 – February 7, 1045) was the 69th emperor of Japan, according to the traditional order of succession. Go-Suzaku's reign spanned the years from 1036 through 1045. This 11th-century sovereign was named after the 10th-century Emperor Suzaku and go- translates literally as "later;" and thus, he is sometimes called the "Later Emperor Suzaku". Go-Suzaku is amongst six other emperors entombed near what had been the residence of Hosokawa Katsumoto before the Ōnin War.
You will find what is my mental image of what Japan would have been like in that time and this particular island's Kami (spirit or diety) is Watatsumi [watatsɯmi], also pronounced Wadatsumi, is a legendary kami, Japanese dragon and tutelary water deity in Japanese mythology. Ōwatatsumi no kami ("great deity of the sea") is believed to be another name for the sea deity Ryūjin (Dragon God) and also for the Watatsumi Sanjin ("Three Watatsumi gods"), which rule the upper, middle and lower seas respectively and were created when Izanagi was washing himself of the dragons blood when he returned from Yomi, "the underworld". There for all of the Shintos are blue in honor of Watatsumi and there are shines in various ares to pay respect to the kami.
Chienoshima is a role play region, or intended to be such, but it can be, for those who would like to indulge in an ancient virtual Japanese lifestyle a new virtual home, we're flexible like that. But whatever your reason for visiting, just enjoy the beauty and the work that has gone into it. The Palace, and courtyard as well as many other things are my own personal builds, many are from other grids where I shopped for specific items and some are builds from other members of this grid. None of it is copyable or free, it is specific to our RP. Blessings and much love, Lavia.



My most recent build for our Japanese themed region. The Watatsumi Pagoda Temple. It isn't completely finished as I need to add doors and furnishings but otherwise it is complete. If you love Japanese culture and history you may well enjoy this region and the things we've built like the emperor's palace and courtyard garden, the samurai house and some Japanese houses that are beautiful and simplistic in harmony with the land. There are shrines where one can relax and meditate and paths that lead to interesting things. Drop in and enjoy a self guided tour on horseback if you like. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

Ometeotl Mikoyan I am very impressed with the work here. It's a beautiful sim, and there has been a lot of love poured into it. I don't think it's quite finished (are they ever? :P}. I think they set a new standard in RP sims, especially historical Asian recreations :)
