Ok so this theory isn't one of my best but I felt it was still worth sharing. You know just to keep the community alive, lol. So my friend asked me a very interesting question regarding the Red 13 scene at the end of the game. Notice how Midgar was full of tress and looked like a splendid jungle of some sort, surrounded by beautiful blue water.

Yeah...I do wonder what other races survived over 500 years...a lot can change in that time....but maybe other races survived, but just evolved? Humans on earth have changed in the last 500 years...maybe Cloud and Tifa's great great great great great great grandchildren are running things now? Lol.
I hope they don't keep things going to span that 500 year period...while it is nice having a lot of questions answered and getting more and more in depth character and story backgrounds...if you carry it out to far, so much of the mystery is taken away...right now we can all guess about what happened in that time, but if they answer it...there isn't much left for the fans' imaginations...and that is one of the things I love so much about FF games :)

As clocksareevil said, I think the game implies that the Cetra's opinion of the Promised Land was that the Lifestream was it.
Other people may have different Promised Lands - for the Shinra family Midgar probably was their Promised Land and later the mako cave in the Northern Crater sure looked like it to Rufus, but that was because what the Shinra family held in the highest regard was money and power.
If you read Maiden Who Travels the Planet and the part where Aeris encounters Shinra Snr's spirit, he went on about how money meant everything and how pathetic Aeris was for being poor. For him Midgar probably was his promised Land - a place he could screw money out of to make himself more rich ( ... )

Don't guard me from spoilers, it annoys me because I'm a total spoiler whore. I can guess who you mean though, it the opening video which I've seen (and in the english version!).
I think the idea was that the villa one can buy in Costa Del Sol may have once been Shinra property. Makes me wonder why it was up for sale then - maybe Rufus was the one who didn't want it and put it up for sale after his father was killed.
I could see that because a villa in Costa sounds like one of those things rich people would buy which would fit in with Shinra Snr.
