virtual tours, virtual panoramas

Virtual reality VR panoramas from all the world.

Panoramas.dk is created by Hans Nyberg a commercial photographer in Denmark

Interactive panoramas is a young media and as such it has for many years been known among enthusiastic photographers and multimedia creators. An interactive VR panorama can not be seen in a book or on a printed image. If you print the panorama it gets a completely different expression.

You can only experience the feeling of being at the place and look around, on a computer. You can only distribute VR Panoramas by the Internet or on CD.

With new fast Internet connections Virtual Reality Panoramas has a large advantage in the tourist industry and in many other areas.
