Ville de Coeur is a cherished micro-continent within Second Life, comprising several interconnected regions that meticulously recreate the ambiance of European villages and countryside. Founded over 10 years ago by Ayla Guisse and Bedrich Panacek, this primarily English-speaking community has become a haven for residents seeking a serene and immersive environment. It is in danger of closing imminently. Please visit soon! The original five regions—Aquitaine Coeur Nord, Poitou Coeur, Normandie Coeur, Coeur de Bourgogne, and Coeur d'Azur—each offer unique landscapes and experiences: Aquitaine Coeur Nord: One of the oldest regions, it features caverns, shops, galleries, and multiple venues for performances. The area includes essential services like a police and fire department, a church, and recreational activities such as rowing and walking tours. Poitou Coeur: The oldest region, characterized by a large lake with an island, primarily hosting large estates and a cottage along the canal. Visitors can navigate through locks, stroll along towpaths, or explore on horseback, trolley, or carriage. Normandie Coeur: A rural community comprising a lockhouse, watermill, church, and numerous half-timber cottages. It offers a small, tranquil beach and seasonal activities like rowing and ice skating on the canal. Coeur de Bourgogne: Inspired by the real-life village of Châteauneuf-en-Auxois, this region boasts a castle, church, main street, houseboats, a model of the Hospice de Beaune, and picturesque vineyards. Coeur d'Azur: A fishing village located on the coast of Provence near the Mediterranean Sea. It features villas nestled on the mountainside, a beach with numerous activities, and a dance area accessible from the beach. The design is based on a 19th-century painting, capturing the timeless charm of the Côte d'Azur. The potential deletion of these regions would signify a profound loss to the Second Life community. Ville de Coeur has long been a sanctuary for mature-minded individuals, offering a tranquil environment that fosters social connections and cultural engagement. The regions' detailed designs and diverse activities have provided residents with unique experiences, from exploring historical architectures to participating in community events. Preserving these regions is essential to maintain the rich tapestry of Second Life's virtual world, ensuring that residents continue to have access to spaces that promote community, culture, and creativity.
