Visit The Seven Wonders Of The World From Your Desktop
If you’ve ever wanted to tour the world but couldn’t pull yourself away from your computer, you’re in luck. Panoramas.dk utilizes 360 degree photography to give armchair tourists a chance to experience the seven wonders of the world. You can zoom in and out, look up and down, and soak up the atmosphere
.
A visit to the Colosseum:

Looking at the tourists:

A visit to Machu Picchu:

The 360 degree tour opens in a new window and requires QuickTime. Now that I’ve had my vacation, it’s time to go back to blogging

I’ve been following the process of these Wonders of the World being voted and think they are all great choices.
I’ve not visited any of them, so seeing these pictures is really good and has certainly made me add them to the list of places I want to visit!
August 12th, 2007 19:41
Nice find.
August 12th, 2007 23:37
I have a feeling it would be great to blog from any one of those locations.
