Explore the world from your sofa in the UAE with Google Arts & Culture

The free platform features content from over 2,000 leading museums and archives

We might not be able to travel and explore all the wonderful attractions and culture the world has to offer, but thanks for Google Arts & Culture art-lovers and culture vultures in the UAE can access content from more than 2,000 leading museums and archives around the world at just a click of a button.

The free-to-use platform allows people to have immersive experiences through high-resolution images, videos and virtual reality and explore artworks and cultural artefacts from top cultural organisations around the world.

The platform has super-cool features like Art Camera that allows art aficionados to see the tiniest of details in paintings and take in-painting tours with commentary on the artwork.

There’s loads of other awesome things to see and do including a treasure hunt at London’s British Museum using Street View or an encounter with Jurassic dinosaur thanks to 360-degree videos.

There is also a dedicated page for families to discover more about art, culture, music and art together in a fun and engaging way.

That’s your weekend sorted. Happy museum-hopping.
