Each of these spots looks beautiful and also represents a specific game play benefit.
For example, the entertainment area will benefit the leader's happiness. The
benefits will be small (so as not to throw off game balancing) but noticeable.
The places will be dedicated to you. So if you click on the entertainment area for the
Romans, you will get a message indicating that the Romans dedicate an Olympics Game
to your greatness. In this way, it's not just buildings that are your reward but also
actual events. I think this makes the reward more active, more engaging and add to the
feel that you are truly ruling a great empire.
