What are some good ideas for a travel brochure for Animal Farm?

You will want your visitors to be able to tour the places important to the history and current running of Animal Farm, so I would include the following in a travel brochure, with lots of color photos:


The grave of Old Major at the foot of the orchard is a must see, as he was the visionary behind the concept of Animal Farm.


The store shed where the original rebellion broke out is another important destination: this is where it all began. 


The big barn is a highlight of the tour, as here the animals have their weekly Meeting.


Naturally, visitors need to see the pig barn, where the Seven Commandments--or maybe now just the one commandment of Animalism--have been painted. 


The cowshed, scene of the Battle of the Cowshed, where the animals fought off the attack of Farmer Jones and his men, is another must see.


Finally, the tour will end at the windmill, a triumph of Animal Farm, rebuilt after being dynamited by Farmer Jones and his men. Here the corn is milled and sold at a high profit. Here, a tour guide might mention the plans for a second windmill to provide power for the animals to have stalls with electric lights and hot water, but then again, that project is endlessly delayed, so perhaps it's best not to bring it up. Instead, the tour might end with the luxurious quarters in the farmhouse where the pigs live as the humans once did.
