It was founded by a group of monks with an ethos of discipline and Martial Arts. It is full of colorful flora, such as Chinese elms and cherry trees, growing on deep green hills. The town is named after Shang Ri-La and it is based on a mountainous town in Shaanxi or Shanxi, most likely Xi'an, but features the Forbidden City in the middle, which is based on the real Forbidden City in Beijing. This sub-hood features activities and items that compliment Chinese culture and architecture. Shang Simla is the hub for training in the [[Martial Arts]] [[skill]] introduced in ''World Adventures''. Sims can also explore landmark [[tomb]]s and [[hidden tomb]]s throughout this world, there are numerous [[Shang Simla adventures\|adventures]] to be had. There are numerous pre-made families in Shang Simla, although they all unfortunately lack description texts and money. Description text on some objects introduced in ''World Adventures'' expand on the lore of Shang Simla, depicting characters such as painter Han Shin. A trip to Shang Simla costs §1300 for a single Sim and §1000 for each additional Sim, making it the cheapest vacation destination the player's Sims can travel to. ~~== Things Unique to Shang Simla: ==~~ ===Features=== A Chinese trip will cost 1300 simoleons for the first Sim and 1000 for each additional Sim Sims will bow to each other when greeting, instead of shaking hands. Shang Simla is a peaceful community set near a mountainous area of China near the Great Wall. It was founded by a group of monks with an ethos of discipline and Martial Arts. In Shang Simla, Sims can explore the Great Wall, Forbidden City, Scholar’s Garden and the “Symbol of the Halls of the Lost Army” (aka Terracotta Army) Sims who live here all have the inheritable [[Asian Culture]] [[hidden trait]].

National dishes of China include Stir Fry and Egg Rolls. Sims in China can eat with chopsticks For China, a new Pagoda roof is being added to the pack Fireworks are added and can be bought in person or from the buy mode catalog for 75 simoleons. Sims can only set them off outside. Bake Fortune Cookies with Fortune Factory Fortune Cookie Maker (§1900) and read the fortune inside as a Sim eats it.
