Themed Communities - Mieville

Mieville is a Victorian/Steampunk Community modeled after the style of late 19th Century San Francisco and New Orleans. Most of the regions are named after popular Victorian novelists like Kipling, Twain, Shelley, Verne, Dickens, Chesterton, or Doyle. You also have Mieville Pond, Mieville Lakes, and Mieville Mountain Rose.

There are many interesting shops, many with merchandise to match the Victorian/Steampunk theme.  There are beautiful gardens. The landscape changes with the seasons. 

Mieville sponsors Historical Hunts like The Steam Hunt, The Silk Road Hunt, or the Renaissance Hunt.

There are also many local events through the year, like Mardi Gras, and non-residents are invited to visit the public areas at any time.

Some areas:

MIEVILLE POND

This large area showcases the work of Arcadia Asylum. There is a Library and Freebie Center, and many examples of her work. Be sure not to miss the examples that are underwater.

Everything here is free, although a tip to help support the place would not be amiss. Want a sea monster? You have several choices.

MIEVILLE DICKENS

The Asian Gardens in Mieville Dickens, by Mike Olbracht, are particularly beautiful.
