Visit the World from the Comfort of Your Living Room



While many of us are not vacationing at the present, there are still ways to safely “travel” the world. We all know virtual trips may not be as exciting as being there firsthand, but with the right attitude, they can be fun and informative.  Also let’s face it, we can visit many more places via our tablet or computer than most of us will ever visit in person, and it sure is easier on our pocketbook.  

One quick google search on your tablet will bring up a whole host of virtual tours of some of the world’s most famous museums, landmarks, national parks, and other attractions.  Also if you were an Anthony Bourdain fan, you can access old episode on Amazon Prime or watch all kinds of travel shows through your cable provider. 

We all know the Louvre in Paris houses Leonardo Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, but taking their virtual tour also walks you through several other masterpieces including the Venus de Milo, the Winged Victory of Samothrace, the Virgin of the Rocks, and The Coronation of Napoleon among others.  In addition you can explore their large collection of Egyptian Antiquities, the remains of the Louvre’s Moat, and the Galerie d’Apollon, known for its high vaulted ceiling with elaborate painted decorations.

If ancient indigenous artifacts is more your thing, we encourage you to take a tour of the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City, Mexico.  Filled with archaeological and historic artifacts of Mexico’s pre-Hispanic heritage, you can browse through 23 exhibit rooms that include items from the Mayan civilization.

Or have you always wanted to take a trip to Yellowstone National Park?  A virtual tour of the park features information on the geological formations, including Old Faithful as well as pictures of wildlife and breathtaking scenery.  Other wonders of the world found on the Internet include places like the Great Wall of China, Buckingham Palace, the Roman Colosseum, and the White House so pack your virtual bags and begin your adventure!
