'Copied from the host information package'

Sinnlichšukai: an up-and-coming city on Tödlichebujoku's west coast! Located just across the bay from sprawling Üüserstenkeiken, Sinnlichšukai has managed to keep its small-town friendliness and intimate atmosphere, despite its proximity to the nearby metropolis and its own booming population. The city originated as a small fishing town, but in recent decades has experienced a great growth in development with the increasing connections with its larger neighbor. A new generation of urban planners, learning from the successes and failures in Üüserstenkeiken, have incorporated an elaborate park system that effectively divides the city into distinct neighborhoods, allowing for easier navigation and sense of place, especially when walking. The city has attained a reputation for being exceptionally family-friendly, with some of the best rated school districts and quality of living scores in the nation. This of course, made it a natural choice to host World Hit Festival 51, in concert with the infrastructure capabilities diffusing in from Üüserstenkeiken. With the downtown area laced with parkland, and the forested mountains only a short ride away, Sinnlichšukai is an exciting choice for both lovers of city living and lovers of nature, of all ages and sizes.

Sinnlichšukai offers a variety of places to visit and things to do. For family fun, visit any of the ubiquitous parks for a romp in the open air, or visit the Kuniveva Isakava Children's Museum for for an intense indoor interactive experience curated by child development professionals. A wide number of exhibits will introduce your children to a variety of opportunities for play, incorporating tactile and multi-sensory interactions, sets inspired by various cultures, and even elementary magic principles! Adults are treated to a wide range of shops and restaurants, especially in the main street of the old town.
