So you know, I thought hello kitty online was just going to squeeze all the cool buildings from one place into a map haphazardly. And I had never been to london or paris so I had no idea that..
THEY USED REAL MAPS FOR REFERENCE!!!!!
That struck me only when they did New York, because I visited there before. It looks the same from the area map! Seriously! I’m pretty amazed, so here are the real london and paris maps for comparision, for all those people like me who never been to these awesome places XD
Now I totally want them to make a mini Singapore T_T
P.S. If you can match all the unnamed places on the HKO maps with their real names please do so!!!!
P.P.S. TY Starrfire for taking the screenshots for me!!!

Its not done! But I think it looked very shiny this morning!
Here are pics in progress
1) my glue on the left, with the cotton bud I used to apply the glue. The left shoe is mostly done in this pic with the right shoe not yet done.
2) Getting the right shoe ready.
3) Preparing the handles and the strap that goes across the shoe, the gold thing is coloured aluminum! Doesn’t it look real shiny!!! and it only cost a dollar or two.
