What if? Metropolis - Travelogue

This is a draft of my travelogue, I plan on reading over it a few times to see if I can improve it. I will have a name for the city by the time I post my OGR but for now I'm still thinking. Also, any suggestions for where I can improve are more than welcome.

The city of (insert name) would make you believe that you have entered a winter wonderland, with the snow crunching under the feet of those who walk up to the city and covering anything and everything in sight. The surrounding area of the city sometimes looks as though it has been erased because how thick the snow can be, like a blank sheet of paper. The (inhabitants name) are aware that it can be difficult to find (city name)  and have lamps leading along a path to the city, so on days of heavy snowfall travellers are still able to find way.

 The paved roads around this part of the city are red with strange stained looking patterns on them, which then stop after a certain point. Buildings are geometrically shaped on one side of the city, with bright colours all over with some being complimented by white. Some of these shapes that make up the buildings might have visitors question how people live in such strange and unique buildings. This side of the city seems to be more free and relaxing for visitors, despite the snow and has a welcoming atmosphere. In spite of the gracious geometric buildings and sense of freedom and community, this side of the city seemed to be frowned upon. When you look closely through the snowy winds stand there is huge towers that look down on the happy little community.

 You can only walk so far into (city name) before you realize the divide that is within it, which becomes clearer once you reach the bridge separating the districts. The first part of the city that you are greeted by is considered the "workers district", which is why THEY frown upon them. Leaving the cold yet warming district of workers, you'll start to somehow feel colder and notice that it has gotten darker. Looking up there is a huge towering building and you're standing in its shadow. These buildings are in the “ruling district”, those who believe that because of their wealth they are above those in the “workers district” and view them as peasants. Their mind set of those in the "workers district" lead to the creation of the enormous metropolis that towers over the district below. The buildings are made of concrete with a lot duller colours than are used in the district below. This district will spin visitors on their heads with the contrast in the atmosphere. the streets seem to be near enough empty all the time except the odd shopper, but you can't shake the feeling that you're being watched, judged for  not living a silver spoon lifestyle.

However, no matter how hard the "ruling district" tries to disassociate themselves from the workers they are all inhabitants of the same city. There are a lot of differences between the two districts from the experiences of the people, structures in the districts, the care and attention that workers put into their district compared to those in the "ruling district" and the atmospheres they want to create. On the other hand, these two do both have some similarities but the most important one is their love for the arts. Obviously they have different tastes but they are both passionate about it which comes across in the architecture of the buildings.

Both districts have their own iconic buildings in them, for example the workers have an immaculate community building which received the most attention and care. The know how important community is in maintaining a stable being, so they use this building the most as if it were a church or cathedral. The community building is for everyone of course, there is no exception to age and lets the adults relax from working all day. Similarly to the rest of the building in the district this one is very geometric and is the biggest building there. It has several triangular shapes that make up the rooftop and then the base of the building is pentagon shaped with additional geometric shapes to provide more room for others. while the adults talk and discuss the day, children can play inside or outside and build snowmen.

 The "ruling district" also has their own iconic building(s) which can be found in the commercial junction in the middle of the district. On the buildings there are huge monitors mounted to them as well as billboards with propaganda on them. Down from the streets the propaganda looks near god like because of the scale of the buildings and billboards, as if it were the words of god himself. Even though workers can visit the "ruling district" to shop and get to work, the residents of the "ruling district" aren't afraid to show their ideology through the propaganda. In the past they have caused conflict with the workers since they disagree with this ideology, but since the workers don't have the same level of power it only ends badly.

The bridge that separates the districts leads to a small port in the "ruling district" this way imported goods can be stocked in the shops easier. The most common items imported to (city name) are; fresh fruits, vegetables and meat. The freezing conditions can make it difficult to grow and farm essentials so most are imported. The workers that don't work in the "ruling district" come to the ports to get supplies for their stalls in the "working district". Due to the cold weather a lot of the water is frozen but because of the boats that export goods the water around the port isn't frozen.

Despite the clear segregation and cold weather, there is a short period of time in (city name) where the snow melts and the sun shines. During this time the workers hold a festival called the “red festival”. The workers take to the streets to watch the marching band and watch other celebrations such as the feast, drinking, other music as well as the big draw. The big draw is when massive rolls of paper are rolled out and everyone grabs whatever materials they want and draw. Sometimes residents from the “ruling district” will come to the festival to join in. However, a large majority of the “ruling district” disagree with this a look down on those who actually join in, for a brief moment in time the two districts put aside their history and come together and enjoy themselves.
