If you even wanted to show your students what it is like inside the Vatican this URL will provide you with a spectacular view.

http://www.vatican.va/various/basiliche/san_giovanni/vr_tour/index-en.html

You can see the site in English or Italian

As you can see from the Graphical index below you can enter 13 locations.

A picture with music will appear. It is now that the fun begins. Pretend you are standing in the picture. You can rotate the scene 360 degrees. It is best done slowly. Then as if you are standing there rotate down and look at the floor and yes you can look up to the ceiling too.

Did you want to take a closer look at that painting or statue on the wall or ceiling?

If so, look at the bottom left hand corner and you will find a +  and – symbol.  Click on the + to zoom in and the – to zoom out.

Be sure to view the site on full screen.
