World Wonders Project

The World Wonders Project enables you to discover 132 historic sites from 18 countries. Street View technology is used to take you on a virtual trip to each iconic site. Most could not be filmed by car, so camera-carrying trikes is used to pedal the way close enough. The site also includes 3D models and YouTube videos of the historical places, so you can dig in and get more information and a broader view of each site. The project also partnered with several prestigious organizations, including UNESCO, the World Monuments Fund, Getty Images and Ourplace, who provided official information and photographs for many of the sites.
