Nine months into the pandemic, and we know you've probably grown tired of social distancing and self-quarantine. And who can blame you? Large gatherings are still highly discouraged, events are canceled, and holiday celebrations are close to non-existent. And if THAT wasn't bad enough, even travels are RESTRICTED!

Keep your chin up, buddy! COVID-19 may have confined us to our homes for the foreseeable future, but that doesn't mean that we have to stop exploring and getting a little culture and education out of it! Thanks to modern technology (THANK YOU INTERNET!), we now have a way to view thousands of galleries and museums around the world, from the comfort and safety of our couches! YES, FREE TRAVEL, EVERYBODY! Here are our top ten picks of the best virtual museum and art gallery tours-- worldwide!

Musée d’Orsay, Paris

Virtually walk through Paris' most popular gallery featuring dozens of famous works from French artists who worked between 1848 and 1914, and get a private peek at beautiful artworks from  Monet, Cézanne, and Gauguin, among others.

National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seoul

Korea, aside from sharing its music, K-dramas, and delicious cuisine, has now opened one of its popular museums for virtual tours!
