How to Travel all Around the World Without Leaving Your Home
For more than two months our country has been living in a pandemic due to the spread of the dangerous coronavirus. And although the extraordinary conditions closed us at home, the representatives of art found a way to reach us. So from the sofa in the living room we watched various theatrical performances that are definitely worth experiencing.

7 Historical Places to Visit Virtually
Eiffel Tower – With its impressive 300-meter height, this Parisian attraction can not go unnoticed. The best thing, however, is the view from the top floor of the tower.

Tower Bridge – the symbol of London (UK). It is 244 m long and 65 m high.
The Statue of Liberty – if you find it impressive in American movies, just wait to see it up close.
Taj Mahal – a beautiful white marble mausoleum located on the south bank of the Yamuna River in the Indian city of Agra. It was commissioned in 1632, but this masterpiece continues to attract millions of tourists each year.
Machu Picchu – an architectural complex in southern Peru. It is the work of the Incas and includes palaces, temples and homes at 2,430 meters above sea level in the Andes.
The Egyptian Pyramids – the virtual tour will take you to a totally different from the familiar European world. But it is definitely worth visiting the tombs of the pharaohs and their wives from the Old and Middle Egyptian kingdoms.
