2010-10-12-EU-Castle-Sunrise-1.jpg The "Edinburgh Uplands" region in Second Life has now been closed with the projects and work on it moved onto other plots on "Vue" and "Edinburgh University" regions. To keep the visual sightliness from meeting spaces and classrooms across the Vue areas and allow for project and event snapshots with the Edinburgh iconic buildings in them, the castle has been moved to the corner of "Edinburgh University" region.
