Top 7 Dreamy Places to Virtually Visit with Your Partner

 

Not all of us are blessed with the fortune of witnessing our bucket list destinations, be it because of lack of time, budget or the Coronavirus. Yet, what we are blessed with is the right technology to take us to our dream destination from the comfort of our living room. Virtual tours, built out of a sequence of videos or images, are simulations of existing locations on the face of the Earth.

Virtual tourism is not just popular among tourists but also among buyers of property. According to research conducted by the National Association of Realtors (NAR), approximately 54% of respondents take a virtual tour of the property they wish to buy.

So, sit back and enjoy a tour of these seven dreamy places from all around the world, with your partner.

1. Taj Mahal

Taj Mahal is a prime attraction of tourists all over the world. Built by the Mughal emperor, Shah Jahan, Taj Mahal is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It took 22,000 workers and 17 years to build this magnificent instance of architecture. Virtual tours with 360° panorama views help visitors to explore the magnificent monument, online, sitting at home. With arrow buttons, you can manually change the direction of your view from left to right, top to bottom, and navigate the panoramic view, the way you want to.

2. Louvre Museum

Present in the heart of Paris, the Louvre Museum is the world’s largest museum and a historic monument. If you and your partner are fond of rich art and culture, the Louvre Museum is your one-stop destination. Tourists from all over the world come to Paris to experience the world of Western art and architecture. From the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci to Les Noces de Cana by Paolo Veronese, from the Vénus de Milo to the Victoire de Samothrace, everything can be witnessed from your home with the help of virtual tourism. https://www.louvre.fr/en/visites-en-ligne will provide you with realistic tours.

3. Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park

This location is a bit unique and more attractive, compared to other places to visit. Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park protects some unique flora and fauna of the world. The park is surrounded around two active volcanoes – Kīlauea and Mauna Loa. You can witness the gorgeous volcanoes and watch everything live from https://www.nps.gov/havo/planyourvisit/lava2.htm. It was declared as a World Heritage Site in 1987. The breath-taking aerial view of the hot lava erupting from the volcanoes is a sight to see.

4. The Colosseum

Built on 70–80 AD, the Colosseum, one of the greatest landmarks of Italy, is the best option for a 360-degree virtual tour. You and your partner will surely love this if you enjoy ancient art, architecture and history. It happens to be the largest amphitheatre in the world with a length of 189 meters, a width of 156 meters and a height of 50 meters. Even though two-thirds of the Colosseum has been vandalized over the years because of earthquakes and fires, it still happens to be one of the most popular tourist sites in the world

5. The Vatican’s Museums

Skip the nuisance of the crowds and enjoy the splendour of the Vatican Museums from the comfort of your home. The Vatican Museums consist of around 70,000 pieces of work. You will be able to see the Sistine Chapel with its ceiling decorated by Michelangelo and the Stanze di Raffaello decorated by Raphael on the visitor route through the Vatican Museums. Leonardo da Vinci’s St. Jerome in Wilderness and Raphael’s Madonna of Foligno are famous pieces of art that you will find here.

6. The Pyramids

Built roughly around 2550 to 2490 BC, the mysterious Egyptian Pyramids are one of the top attractions of tourists all over the world. The Egyptian pharaohs believed that erecting pyramid tombs will prepare them for their afterlife. These magnificent pieces of architecture are no more difficult for you to reach. You and your partner can enjoy the aerial view of the pyramids, right from your couch. Simply use your cursor to navigate the 360 degree views and make your virtual vacation very special with your loved one.

7. The Eiffel Tower

Visiting the Eiffel Tower is on the bucket list of almost all couples. Situated on the Champ de Mars in Paris, the Eiffel Tower is one of the most recognized structures in the world. Millions of people from all over the world come to Paris to witness the tower every year. It has seen over 250 million visitors since its opening in 1889. However, even if you cannot reach the Eiffel Tower physically, you can definitely experience the beauty, virtually.

The purpose of virtual tourism is not to replace actual traveling. That is next to impossible. However, the advancement of technology must be appreciated. Virtual tourism has two perks. The first being, with just a gadget and an internet connection, you can reach places you had always dreamed about, even though traveling can be expensive, time-consuming and so on. The second perk is that it will encourage you to travel more. You might be doubtful about visiting a certain place, but a virtual tour will help you to make up your mind. Not only this, you can in fact plan a ride through the countryside on direct bikes with your partner and make it a memorable one.
