Travel and wander in your web browser
Indeed, City Walks invites us to take a virtual walk through some of the most touristic cities on the planet: Athens, Amsterdam, Berlin, Lisbon, London, Paris, Madrid, Stockholm, Mexico, Tokyo, Moscow, Rio de Janeiro or Dubai.
On the right side, you will find a drop-down menu where you can select the city you want to cross and only three options that will allow you to modulate your experience: day or night, before or during COVID-19, with or without sound!
You will then put yourself in the shoes of a passerby and visit the city and its neighborhoods by following the camera. You have no option to choose your path, you can simply let yourself be guided and enjoy the atmosphere of the city.
Discover the architecture, the vegetation, the style of the inhabitants... but also the sounds, very specific to each city!
France is well represented with Bordeaux, but also Paris… and you will particularly appreciate Paris where the first images show CRS and a demonstration… No doubt, it’s France! Cock-a-doodle-doo!
