Virtual Tours of Museums, Operas, and Broadway!
Museums, operas, street art, concert halls, etc. are always some of the top priorities when we’re traveling so we think this is a good place to start your virtual travels. Art is universal and can be enjoyed and can evoke emotion even while you sit on your couch.
British Museum, LondonA popular site in London for some of the best galleries and exhibits, the so-called “Museum of the World” offers a very interactive and easy-to-navigate virtual experience. It’s divided up by sections of the world, offering a very similar experience that an in-person visit would.
