Art at home: the museums of Naples just a click away

It may happen that for one reason or another you do not have the opportunity to leave your home or to attend an exhibition in a museum. To make up for this, all you need to do is to have your smartphone at your disposal, through which you can have access to many of the oldest and most beautiful museums in Naples. Real virtual tours through which you can walk step by step through the entire museum as if you were there. Through virtual tours both the citizens of Naples and tourists can use their free time to visit a museum remotely. Those who live far from Naples can, for one day, return to the Neapolitan city. 

One of the most effective ways to visit a museum online is to access the Google Arts & Culture platform. It is a platform made available to the search engine to be able to access directly from your smartphone, through the app, to any museum you want. Through Google Art & Culture you will be able to make a virtual tour of the museum, entering directly into it as if you were there in the first person. The application also allows the view in augmented reality thanks to the special 3D viewers. The virtual tour is a simulation of an existing place, usually consisting of a sequence of videos or still images or panoramic or 3D images. The virtual tour can also use other multimedia elements such as sound effects, music, narration, and text. A video tour is a complete moving video of a location. Unlike the static virtual tour, a video tour is an immersive, linear walk in one location. Using a camera, the position is shot at a walking pace while moving continuously from one point to another in all subjective view.

Through the app you can access any museum you wish with a simple click and through the arrows you can move around the museum with a first-person view. 

Google Earth is a three-dimensional graphic application that allows you to view aerial and satellite photographs of the Earth with very high detail. The feature of Google Heart is its three-dimensional view of things. In fact, you can not only look at satellite images of streets but you can also dwell on monuments. Heart arrives anywhere in the world and by entering the appropriate coordinates you can stop and admire, in first person and with a high graphic quality, the Duomo of Milan for example, the Colosseum or Piazza del Plebiscito. 

The 3D vision captured by the video cameras allows the viewer to turn completely around 360 degrees without losing any detail. You immerse yourself in a completely new reality, admiring important monuments and squares of the Italian panorama simply from the sofa at home.

Naples is history and history is Naples. Among the narrow streets of the city we can find ancient churches and monuments carved in stone by ancient artists. Among the many things that make Naples famous all over the world is the amount of art made available to citizens and tourists. Cradle of Greek art Naples is perfectly told in the many museums that contain the history of this magnificent city. 

The Neapolitan museums, which can be visited all year round, have enriched their facilities by providing them with online systems that allow you to visit the nose even from the comfort of your own sofa at home. The online access, through the museum website, allows a virtual visit of the various historical collections.
