New Silent Hill's electrical district is the heart of the massive Information Technology sector in Gothria, as well as a very popular place to spend indulgent, hedonistic evenings, due to the plethora of clubs, bars and restaurants within it. Any revolutions in the the electronic entertainment industry, the alternative music scene or the technological world happens in the Electric City.

Culture

Public Holidays

The Sakura Festival - April the 8th Once a year, Gothrians look forward to this public holiday. They assemble under the cherry blossom trees that have been native to the country for as long as history remembers, waiting for the first petal to fall. The day's celebrations consist of eating, drinking and music on huge blankets. The festival inspires a strong community spirit in Gothrians, as friends, family, neighbours and strangers alike share food, drink, music and stories. It is customary on this day for young Gothrians to confess their affections to one another, and as such is a happy, romantic day, that every citizen looks forward to.
