Do more with Google Earth
What's coming up?
In this activity, we will explain how a wonderful online resource – called Google Arts & Culture – adds a new dimension to Google Earth, and how Google Earth Tours let you explore the globe in new ways.
Start activityExplore the world
Google Earth is so much more than just an interactive map of the world. When you’re exploring a location in Google Earth, there are links you can click to discover a range of amazing online resources that do far more than just show you around.
Embrace the arts
Google Arts & Culture is a great example of how Google Earth can help broaden our horizons. It lets you explore the world's great museums and art galleries – even artworks in huge detail – from London's British Museum and the Musée d’Orsay in Paris, to Washington's Smithsonian, and Beijing's Palace Museum.
Enter the virtual world of arts and culture
Google Arts & Culture is a separate website to Google Earth, but you can find your way there from Google Earth when you're keen to learn more about the world's great cultural treasures.
You can visit Google Arts & Culture at: https://artsandculture.google.com
Take a tour
You can also use Google Earth Tours to explore even more of what Google Earth can do. Choose from a range of tours by visiting the Google Earth gallery.
You can learn more about tours in our Google Earth - more than a map course.
