Terrain tool build ideas

Most people know by now that terrain tools are coming to the Sims 4 in a free patch. I have plenty of ideas on what kind of things I should build, so I thought I could make a discussion so people could share their ideas. I'll start with a couple of mine.

1. Hogwarts School
I think you can tell I love Harry Potter from my username, so I had to suggest this. with the new terrain tools, it would be great if a talent creator (probably not me) built a Hogwarts grounds similar to the one in the movies, with the gorgeous lake and high up in the mountains. Hogwarts itself could be perched on a cliff and the Forbidden Forest could extend down the mountain to beside the Black Lake. So many possibilities.

2. Hobbit Houses
I haven't watched The Hobbit or LOTR but I do know about the cute little hobbit holes! We could easily disguise a roof to be a mountain or hill beside other mountains and hills from the terrain tools. People have made hobbit holes out of roofs but I was thinking we could put some hills and mountains behind it to make it more realistic.

3. Nature Wonderland
It would be easy to create a beautiful natural park with a gorgeous turquoise lake, rich green forests, and tall mountains, just for a little reminder of our own gorgeous world. It would certainly spice things up for other community venues, as well. I think it would make them more interesting.

4. Historical Sights
We could recreate beautiful places from our own world into the Sims. For example, we could make a very cool grand canyon using the dig down terrain tool in the deserts of Oasis Springs, and deserted old ruins using items from Get Together on a high mountain. These could work as a community venue.

5. Mining
Using the dig down tool again, we could make a very cool looking mine with crystals from the base game and Get to Work. This would have no purpose to it, but it would still be cool to build.

Have any other ideas? Please share them in this thread.

    I'm planning on taking a sledgehammer to Granite Falls and improving it a million times over. It will be my experimentation area.
