Meijin Hills was originally the relocated Tyro Museum. Shire Arbiter Lord_Drekar (now Lord) created a place where great Tyro builds could be put on display. Lord nebbers needed to fill the empty space south of Brahmin Beach and relocated the Tyro Museum to Meijin Hills. "Meijin" in Japanese means 'highly skilled master of a certain field'.
