COVID-19, the coronavirus disease, might prevent you from traveling, but you can still stop at old sites online in Google Earth. The tech company has put together a list of 30 UNESCO World Heritage Sites, with ancient context and pins for each.
The death toll from the novel coronavirus disease, COVID-19, now stands at more than 9,700 and the virus has affected more than 235,000 people.
On Wednesday, the World Health Organization (WHO) officially declared it a pandemic. The virus has affected the entire world, causing flight cancellations, quarantines and other disruptions to movement. On Tuesday, citizens of the San Francisco Bay Area were ordered to “shelter in place” until April 7, meaning they will have to stay home unless they have a range of essential food and medicine. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo ordered all non-essential business painters to work from home on Friday.
Whether you’re sheltering in place or just cutting back and social distancing, Google Earth can let you pretend to see the world.
